Stable isotope analysis of ectoparasites as a tool for understanding trophic interactions with mammalian hosts Open
Climate change is expected to expand the geographic ranges of ectoparasites, increasing the transmission of vector‐borne diseases and necessitating a better understanding of ectoparasite–host trophic dynamics. Haematophagous ectoparasites …

The Cultural Ecohydrogeology of Mediterranean-Climate Springs: A Global Review with Case Studies Open
Cultures in Mediterranean climate zones (MCZs) around the world have long been reliant on groundwater and springs as freshwater sources. While their ecology and cultural sustainability are recognized as critically important, inter-relation…

Extraordinary concentrations of local endemism associated with arid-land springs Open
Introduction: While the biodiversity value of springs is recognised, it has not been systematically compiled. The aim of the current study is to highlight the extraordinary endemism associated with the isolated habitat of arid-land springs…

Characteristics and Process Interactions in Natural Fluvial–Riparian Ecosystems: A Synopsis of the Watershed-Continuum Model Open
The watershed-continuum model (WCM) describes fluvial-riparian ecosystems (FREs) as dynamic reach-based ecohydrogeological riverine landscapes linking aquatic, riparian, and upland domains within watersheds. FRE domains include aquatic (ch…

A Strategy for Conservation of Springsnails in Nevada and Utah, USA Open
The Nevada and Utah Springsnail Conservation Strategy (the Strategy) is a comprehensive and proactive 10-year plan to protect 103 species of truncatelloidean springsnails and their habitats (primarily springs). Springsnails are tiny, aquat…

Advancing North: White-nosed coati’s <i>Nasua narica</i> Range Expansion in Arizona Open
Over the past century, the white-nosed coati (WNC; Nasua narica ) has expanded its northernmost range from the United States-Mexico border into northern Arizona. WNC are medium-sized, opportunistic omnivores that often occur in large group…

Urgent plea for global protection of springs Open
Springs, keystone ecosystems, are rapidly disappearing mainly due to overexploitation, and need global protection.

Oases of the future? Springs as potential hydrologic refugia in drying climates Open
Natural springs in water‐limited landscapes are biodiversity hotspots and keystone ecosystems that have a disproportionate influence on surrounding landscapes despite their usually small size. Some springs served as evolutionary refugia du…

Springs and Springs-Dependent Taxa of the Colorado River Basin, Southwestern North America: Geography, Ecology and Human Impacts Open
The Colorado River basin (CRB), the primary water source for southwestern North America, is divided into the 283,384 km2, water-exporting Upper CRB (UCRB) in the Colorado Plateau geologic province, and the 344,440 km2, water-receiving Lowe…

Characteristics, Main Impacts, and Stewardship of Natural and Artificial Freshwater Environments: Consequences for Biodiversity Conservation Open
In this overview (introductory article to a special issue including 14 papers), we consider all main types of natural and artificial inland freshwater habitas (fwh). For each type, we identify the main biodiversity patterns and ecological …

Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems: Classification, Identification Techniques and Threats Open
This chapter begins by briefly discussing the three major classes of groundwater dependent ecosystems (GDEs), namely: (I) GDEs that reside within groundwater (e.g. karsts; stygofauna); (II) GDEs requiring the surface expression of groundwa…

Proceedings of the 12th Biennial Conference of research on the Colorado Plateau Open
Mountain snow cover of the Colorado River Basin (CRB) has had a fivefold increase in dust loading since Anglo settlement of the western United States in the mid-19th century.This dust deposition accelerates snowmelt by reducing albedo thro…

Interactions among Tamarix (Tamaricaceae), Opsius stactogalus (Cicadellidae), and Litter Fungi Limit Riparian Plant Establishment Open
One of the most significant plant invasions in the U.S. has been that of the Old World genus Tamarix. While Tamarix spp. is widely studied, surprisingly little is known about more complex trophically-linked community mechanisms influencing…
