Book ChapterDOI
Biomonitoring of Human Impacts in Freshwater Ecosystems: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
Nikolai Friberg,Núria Bonada,David C. Bradley,Michael J. Dunbar,Francois Edwards,Jonathan Grey,Richard B. Hayes,Alan G. Hildrew,Nicolas Lamouroux,Mark Trimmer,Guy Woodward +10 more
TL;DR: It is timely to assess critically existing biomonitoring approaches to help ensure future programmes operate within a sound scientific framework and cost-effectively, as well as highlighting potentially rewarding new approaches and technologies that could complement existing methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships between structure and function in streams contrasting in temperature
Nikolai Friberg,Nikolai Friberg,John Bøhme Dybkjær,Jón S. Ólafsson,Gísli Már Gíslason,Søren Ejling Larsen,Torben L. Lauridsen +6 more
TL;DR: Structural and functional attributes gave complementary information which all indicated a change with temperature similar to what is found in moderately polluted streams, suggesting that lotic ecosystems could be degraded by global warming.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature and the metabolic balance of streams
Benoît O. L. Demars,J. Russell Manson,Jón S. Ólafsson,Gísli Már Gíslason,Rakel Gudmundsdottir,Guy Woodward,Julia Reiss,Doris E. Pichler,Jes J. Rasmussen,Nikolai Friberg,Nikolai Friberg +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of temperature and nutrient cycling in whole-system metabolism (ER, GPP and net ecosystem production) in naturally heated geothermal (5−25°C) Icelandic streams was demonstrated.
Book ChapterDOI
From Natural to Degraded Rivers and Back Again: A Test of Restoration Ecology Theory and Practice
Christian K. Feld,Sebastian Birk,David C. Bradley,Daniel Hering,Jochem Kail,Anahita Marzin,Andreas Melcher,Dirk Nemitz,Morten Lauge Pedersen,Florian Pletterbauer,Didier Pont,Piet F. M. Verdonschot,Nikolai Friberg +12 more
TL;DR: While the large-scale re-meandering and re-establishment of water levels at River Skjern resulted in significant recovery of riverine biota, habitat enhancement schemes at smaller-scales in other rivers were largely ineffective and failed to show long-term recovery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Feeding plasticity of two detritivore-shredders
Nikolai Friberg,Dean Jacobsen +1 more
TL;DR: The findings are interpreted as indicating that detritivore-shredders do not per se prefer leaf litter, but in fact actively select other food items such as filamentous green algae or macrophytes, even when terrestrial leaf litter is abundant.
