TL;DR: The ecological limits of hydrologic alteration (ELOHA) as mentioned in this paper is a framework for assessing environmental flow needs for many streams and rivers simultaneously to foster development and implementation of environmental flow standards at the regional scale.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight the importance of the tacit dimension of knowledge, and how this renders the concept of knowledge transfer much less useful than the concepts of information transfer and technology transfer, and propose that co-production of knowledge through collaborative learning between experts and users is a more suitable approach to building a knowledge system for the sustainable management of ecosystems.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify four key elements required to make this model succeed: existing and planned water projects represent opportunities to conduct ecosystem-scale experiments through controlled river flow manipulations; more cooperative interactions among scientists, managers, and other stakeholders are critical; experimental results must be synthesized across studies to allow broader generalization; and new, innovative funding partnerships are needed to engage scientists and to broadly involve the government, the private sector, and NGOs.

TL;DR: The Kruger Experience as discussed by the authors is the first book to synthesize/summarize a century of ecological research and management in two million hectares of African savanna in South Africa.

TL;DR: In this paper, the equal importance of large animals in shape-changing river habitats was recognized, and the authors pointed out that large animals living on the increased variety of habitat patches largely determine the eventual distribution and cycling rates of elements (e.g., nitrogen and phosphorus) as basic population and community processes are carried out.
