Freshwater ecosystems are sensitive to disturbances related to human activities, such as
climate and land-use changes. To predict and understand the potential impacts of these …

We review some of the classic literature on geomorphology and ecology of streams in an
effort to examine how theoretical developments in these aquatic sciences have influenced …

Lakes and rivers are intimately connected in an alternating series of lentic and lotic reaches
in many regions. The study of lakes and their outlets in hierarchical and branching river …
