This literature review addresses how wide a streamside forest buffer needs to be to protect
water quality, habitat, and biota for small streams (≤~ 100 km2 or~ 5th order watershed) …

América Latina es una región bastante activa en cuanto a la investigación científica, en
particular con respecto al estudio de macroinvertebrados de agua dulce. La presente es …

Riparian forests are commonly advocated as a key management option to mitigate the
effects of agriculture on headwater stream biodiversity and ecosystem functions. However …

Climate change and land‐use change are having substantial impacts on biodiversity world‐
wide, but few studies have considered the impact of these factors together. If the combined …

Land use changes and riparian corridor degradation strongly influence the water quality of
low-order streams at different spatial scales. Stream water quality can be analyzed by …

Modification of natural landscapes and land‐use intensification are global phenomena that
can result in a range of differing pressures on lotic ecosystems. We analysed national‐scale …

Human presence at water bodies can have a range of ecological impacts, creating trade-offs
between recreation as an ecosystem service and conservation. Conservation policies could …

Riparian zones ensure freshwater ecosystem processes such as microclimate regulation,
organic matter inputs, and fine substrate retention. These processes illustrate the importance …

It is broadly acknowledged that freshwater ecosystems are affected by multiple stressors, but
the relative importance of individual stressors in impairing riverine communities remains …

Water insecurity is a defining feature of the Anthropocene, with degraded water quality and
unreliable flows putting the well‐being of upstream and downstream communities, both …
