Abstract. The geographic distribution of streams and rivers drives a multitude patterns processes in hydrology, geomorphology, geography, ecology. Therefore, hydrographic network that accurately delineates both small large rivers, along with their topographic topological properties, equal precision would be indispensable the earth sciences. Currently, available global hydrographies do not feature headwater great detail. However, these headwaters are vital because they estimated to contribute...
Abstract Aim Community assembly processes are difficult to observe in nature but can be inferred from species diversity patterns. However, taxonomic patterns may consistent with multiple explanations, such as habitat filtering or biogeographical processes, which also act differently across spatial scales. Here, we assessed facets of determine the relative contributions local versus regional and historical contemporary factors establishing macroecological Location From Mediterranean...
Abstract Motivation Aquatic insects comprise 64% of freshwater animal diversity and are widely used as bioindicators to assess water quality impairment ecosystem health, well test ecological hypotheses. Despite their importance, a comprehensive, global database aquatic insect occurrences for mapping biodiversity in macroecological studies applied research is missing. We aim fill this gap present the Global EPTO Database , which includes worldwide geo‐referenced occurrence records four major...
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate how trait correlations between life stages associated with complex cycles (aquatic nymph and terrestrial adult) shape the functional diversity trait–environment relationships of European dragonflies (Odonata: Anisoptera). Location mainland. Time Period Pre‐1990 post‐1990. Major Taxa Studied Dragonflies Methods Based on traits linked to dispersal microhabitat preference, we use hypervolumes structural equation modelling estimate spatial temporal (adult) aquatic...
Abstract Freshwater ecosystems are considered biodiversity hotspots, but assessing the spatial distribution of species remains challenging. One major obstacle lies in complex geospatial processing large amounts data, such as stream network, sub‐catchment and basin that necessary for addressing longitudinal connectivity among water bodies. Workflows thus need to be scalable, especially when working across extents at high resolution. This turn requires advanced command‐line GIS skills...
Sudden environmental changes like marine heatwaves will become more intense and frequent in the future. Understanding physiological responses of mixoplankton protozooplankton, key members food webs, to temperature is crucial. Here, we studied two dinoflagellates (one protozoo- one mixoplanktonic), ciliates cryptophytes. We report acute (24 h) on growth grazing a range temperatures (5-34 °C). also determined respiration photosynthetic rates for four grazers within 6 °C warming. The thermal...
Freshwater ecosystems are characterized by their unique longitudinal and lateral habitat connectivity. As a result, spatial units in freshwater-specific analyses can often not be considered independent of each other. Accounting for this connectivity modelling requires advanced skills Geographic Information Systems (GIS) adequately processing managing the data. To address challenge, we developed GeoFRESH online platform, which is available at https://geofresh.org. The platform provides...

Therefore, hydrographic network that accurately delineatesboth small large with equal precision, along their topographic topological proper-ties, would be indispensable the earth sciences. However, no such study has been publishedto date. Perhaps equally critical is absence headwater global hydrographies, as theseare estimated to contribute more...
