Unravelling large-scale patterns and drivers of biodiversity in dry rivers Open
More than half of the world's rivers dry up periodically, but our understanding of the biological communities in dry riverbeds remains limited. Specifically, the roles of dispersal, environmental filtering and biotic interactions in drivin…

Unravelling large-scale patterns and drivers of biodiversity in dry rivers Open
The lack of data from non-perennial rivers, which regularly cease to flow and dry up, poses a significant challenge in understanding river biodiversity. These dynamic ecosystems, accounting for over half of the global river network, remain…

Intermittent rivers and ephemeral streams are pivotal corridors for aquatic and terrestrial animals Open
Rivers are efficient corridors for aquatic animals, primarily under the assumption of perennial flow. However, the recognition that river drying is a common and widespread phenomenon requires reexamining animal movement through river netwo…

Flow intermittence alters carbon processing in rivers through chemical diversification of leaf litter Open
The dry phase of intermittent rivers promotes the accumulation of leaf litter on various terrestrial and aquatic habitats. This environmental heterogeneity causes a chemical diversification of leaf litter by a range of physical and biologi…

Data and R code for Flow intermittence alters carbon processing in rivers through chemical diversification of leaf litter Open
Complete dataset and R code to replicate results from the paper "Flow intermittence alters carbon processing in rivers through chemical diversification of leaf litter" published in Limnology and Oceanography Letters. See metadata.pdf file …

Flow intermittence alters carbon processing in rivers through chemical diversification of leaf litter Open
The dry phase of intermittent rivers promotes the emergence of diverse terrestrial and aquatic habitats where large amounts of leaf litter can accumulate. This environmental heterogeneity can cause diverse chemical alterations in leaf litt…

Sediment Respiration Pulses in Intermittent Rivers and Ephemeral Streams Open
Intermittent rivers and ephemeral streams (IRES) may represent over half the global stream network, but their contribution to respiration and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions is largely undetermined. In particular, little is known about th…

Simulating rewetting events in intermittent rivers and ephemeral streams: A global analysis of leached nutrients and organic matter Open
Climate change and human pressures are changing the global distribution and the extent of intermittent rivers and ephemeral streams (IRES), which comprise half of the global river network area. IRES are characterized by periods of flow ces…

One for All, All for One: A Global River Research Network Open
Intermittent rivers are an increasing share of the world's river network, but current models don't include them. One research network is gathering knowledge about these rivers from around the world.
