Small wetlands provide crucial ecosystem services but are facing widespread loss and degradation. At present, small wetland complexes provide an alternative avenue for conservation; we used a dataset to illustrate how zeta diversity can be assessed in a ...

While interflow from the slopes can be crucial for water and nutrient availability in low-input farming systems in wetlands in East Africa, very little data exist on hillslope hydrology and associated nutrient transport in deeply weathered saprolites ove...

Dry detention basins (DB) are commonly used to reduce the rate of runoff in urban areas and may provide open space for recreation between storms. However, most are not effective at nitrogen removal in comparison to other measures, such as constructed wet...

Wetlands are hotspots of CH4 emissions to the atmosphere, mainly sustained by microbial decomposition of organic matter in anoxic sediments. Several knowledge gaps exist on how environmental drivers shape CH4 emissions from these ecosystems, posing chall...

Studies have shown that salt concentrations are increasing in waterbodies such as lakes, rivers, wetlands, and streams in areas where deicers are commonly applied for winter road maintenance, resulting in degraded water quality. As the salt concentration...
