The interdisciplinary nature of limnology requires lucid and well-integrated coverage of
biology, chemistry, physics, earth science, and resource management. Paul Weihe skillfully …

Braided river floodplains are highly dynamic ecosystems, where aquatic communities are
strongly regulated by the hydrologic regime. So far, however, understanding of how flow …

Poverty, food insecurity and environmental degradation are the recurrent problems in the
Ganga River Basin (GRB). The Ganga River enriches the fertility of floodplain through …

Human interventions that limit channel mobility such as bank stabilization are frequent in

This study investigated patterns of nutrient pollution in waterbody types across Greater
London. Nitrate and phosphate data were collected by both citizen scientists and …

Abstract The River Continuum Concept (RCC) provided one of the first unifying frameworks
in fluvial ecosystem theory. While the RCC predictions held in many empirical tests, other …

Habitat modelling aims to predict changes in the structure of aquatic communities as a
function of habitat availability. It is a primary tool to inform management actions and to …

Different types of water bodies in lowland river floodplains represent vital biodiversity
havens and encompass diverse microhabitats, which are essential for structuring different …

Stream ecosystems are spatially heterogeneous, with many different habitat patches
distributed within a small area. The influence of this heterogeneity on the biodiversity of …
