TL;DR: In this article, the authors combine geophysics, microbial ecology and organic geochemistry to show geophysical opportunity and microbial capacity to enhance the net heterotrophy in streams, rivers and estuaries.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of seasonal droughts on stream ecosystems were studied in the Fuirosos, an intermittent forested Mediterranean stream, and the macroinvertebrate community response to drying was stepped and apparently defined by thresholds of transition from drying to cessation of flow and from the dry phase to restoration of flow.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a Web of Science Record created on 2008-02-13, modified on 2016-08-08.Reference GEOLEP-ARTICLE-2003-008

TL;DR: The efficiency of stream ecosystems to remove nutrients has limitations because it can be significantly altered by the quantity and quality of the receiving water, and it is suggested that high nutrient loads affect fluvial ecosystem function.

TL;DR: In this article, two second-order streams located north of Barcelona (Spain) that differed in watershed lithology, soil type, and vegetation were compared by performing several short-term additions (2 h) of phosphate and ammonium.
