Zinc and Copper Have the Greatest Relative Importance for River Macroinvertebrate Richness at a National Scale Open
It is important to discover what change led to the improvement in European macroinvertebrate biodiversity in the period from 1990-2000s and what prevents further desirable gains from taking place today. A 30-year data set from 1,457 macroi…

River invertebrate biodiversity benefits from upstream urban woodland Open
In urban environments, invertebrate communities are subjected to a broad mixture of impacts, including diffuse pollution. Pollutant mixtures and habitat degradation can combine to apply stress on community diversity. Water quality is influ…

MAKING WAVES: Effluent to estuary: Does sunshine or shade reduce downstream footprints of cities? Open
Riparian tree canopies are key components of river systems, and influence the provision of many essential ecosystem services. Their management provides the potential for substantial control of the downstream persistence of pollutants. The …

Woodland Establishment Reduces Nutrient Losses to Waterbodies in Urban Catchments: A Review of the Evidence Open
Systematic review of peer‐reviewed literature was undertaken to establish benefits of urban forests on reducing nutrient concentrations in adjacent or downstream waterbodies. Following screening, a small number of articles (40) were found …

Conceptual framework for mapping and modelling ecosystem services. REGREEN Deliverable D3.3. Open
Cities are complex systems which encapsulate highly inter-connected and overlapping domains of built infrastructure, natural green and blue space components and interfacing all of this are people. Despite people being at the heart of every…

Assessing potential impacts of multiple stressors on riverine phytoplankton community by integrated models Open
Increasing pressures from both natural disturbance and anthropogenic activities challenge river ecosystem resilience. A better understanding of the ecological balancing of structure under multiple stressors is thus critical for sustainable…

Hydrological and environmental variables outperform spatial factors in structuring species, trait composition, and beta diversity of pelagic algae Open
There has been increasing interest in algae‐based bioassessment, particularly, trait‐based approaches are increasingly suggested. However, the main drivers, especially the contribution of hydrological variables, of species composition, tra…
