Much progress has been made in the past few decades in understanding the sources,
transport, fate, and biological effects of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in aquatic …

Simple Summary Epigenetic molecular mechanisms (EMMs) are capable of regulating and
stabilizing a wide range of living cell processes without altering its DNA sequence. EMMs …

Stream ecosystems are impacted by multiple stressors worldwide. Recent studies have
shown that the effects of multiple stressors are often complex and difficult to predict based on …

Ecology and ecotoxicology have different historical roots, despite their similar names, but
are slowly converging to meet the challenge of addressing the massive global proliferation …

Climate change and land‐use change are widely altering freshwater ecosystem functioning
and there is an urgent need to understand how these broad stressor categories may interact …

Urban streams are exposed to a variety of anthropogenic stressors. Freshwater salinization
is a key stressor in these ecosystems that is predicted to be further exacerbated by climate …

Growing use of synthetic materials has increased the number of stressors that can degrade
freshwater ecosystems. Many of these stressors are relatively new and poorly understood …

The delivery of excessive fine sediment (particles< 2 mm in diameter) to rivers can cause
serious deleterious effects to aquatic ecosystems and is widely acknowledged to be one of …

Background Freshwaters are exposed to multiple anthropogenic stressors, leading to habitat
degradation and biodiversity decline. In particular, agricultural stressors are known to result …

Freshwater ecosystems are exposed to multiple stressors, but their individual and combined
effects remain largely unexplored. Here, we investigated the response of stream biofilm …
