Article
Agricultural impacts on lowland tropical streams detected through leaf litter decomposition (2024)
(Elsevier B.V., 2023)Stream ecosystems are highly vulnerable to changes in land use and vegetation in their catchments for two reasons: firstly, they receive inputs of nutrients, contaminants and sediments through runoff; and secondly, terrestrial ... -
Article
Effects of gamma irradiation on instream leaf litter decomposition (2021)
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021)Leaf litter decomposition is a key process in stream ecosystems, the rates of which can vary with changes in litter quality or its colonization by microorganisms. Decomposition in streams is increasingly used to compare ... -
Article
Extreme temperature events alter stream ecosystem functioning (2021)
(Elsevier B.V., 2021-02)Extreme temperature events have increased in intensity, duration and frequency in the last century, with potential consequences on organisms and ecosystems. In many streams, leaf litter of terrestrial origin is a key ... -
Article
High sensitivity of invertebrate detritivores from tropical streams to different pesticides (2021)
(Academic Press, 2021-06-15)Freshwater organisms are often sensitive to pesticides, but their sensitivity varies across different taxa and with pesticide type and action mode, as shown by multiple acute toxicity tests. Such variability hampers ... -
Article
Impacts of detritivore diversity loss on instream decomposition are greatest in the tropics (2021)
(Nature Research, 2021-12)The relationship between detritivore diversity and decomposition can provide information on how biogeochemical cycles are affected by ongoing rates of extinction, but such evidence has come mostly from local studies and ... -
Article
Microplastic concentration, distribution and dynamics along one of the largest Mediterranean-climate rivers: A whole watershed approach (2022)
(Academic Press Inc., 2022-06)Microplastics (MPs) have been recognized as one of the most ubiquitous environmental pollutants globally. They have been found in all ecosystems studied to date, threatening biological diversity, ecosystem functioning and ... -
Article
Warming overrides eutrophication effects on leaf litter decomposition in stream microcosms (2024)
(Elsevier Ltd, 2023)Several human activities often result in increased nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) inputs to running waters through runoff. Although headwater streams are less frequently affected by these inputs than downstream reaches, ... -
Article
Wildfires alter stream ecosystem functioning through effects on leaf litter (2024)
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2024)Background: Wildfires have strong impacts on terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, whose frequency, severity, and intensity are increasing with climate change. Moreover, the expansion of exotic monoculture plantations, such ...
