Journal ArticleDOI
Climate change and freshwater ecosystems: impacts across multiple levels of organization
TL;DR: It is proposed that an understanding of the connections between these different levels of organization can help to develop a more coherent theoretical framework based on metabolic scaling, foraging theory and ecological stoichiometry, to predict the ecological consequences of climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological networks--beyond food webs.
Thomas C. Ings,José M. Montoya,José M. Montoya,Jordi Bascompte,Nico Blüthgen,Lee E. Brown,Carsten F. Dormann,Francois Edwards,Francois Edwards,David J. Figueroa,David J. Figueroa,Ute Jacob,J. Iwan Jones,Rasmus B. Lauridsen,Mark E. Ledger,Hannah Lewis,Jens M. Olesen,F. J. Frank van Veen,Phil H. Warren,Guy Woodward +19 more
TL;DR: A number of 'dead ends' and 'fruitful avenues' are suggested for future research into ecological networks by suggesting a new catalogue of evermore complete, taxonomically resolved, and quantitative data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent advances in stream and river temperature research
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the advances in understanding gained since 1990 and on investigations of fundamental controls on thermal behavior, thermal heterogeneity at different spatial scales, the influence of human impacts and the nature of past and future trends.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global Synthesis and Critical Evaluation of Pharmaceutical Data Sets Collected from River Systems
TL;DR: A global-scale analysis of the presence of 203 pharmaceuticals across 41 countries is presented and it is shown that contamination is extensive due to widespread consumption and subsequent disposal to rivers.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is concluded that human society must plan adaptation and mitigation measures for the full breadth of impacts in all affected regions caused by glacier shrinkage, and changes in river hydrology and morphology caused by climate-induced glacier loss are projected to be the greatest of any hydrological system.
