DOI: 10.1002/2017jc012769
Abstract: Submarine fresh groundwater discharging from discrete zones such as conduits overlain by thick sediment remains poorly documented and understood despite common anecdotal accounts of it. We analyzed this phenomenon by a suite of variable-density, variably-saturated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/aqc.3129
Abstract: Groundwater has very rarely been included in modern systematic conservation planning methods that identify key areas for protection of aquatic organisms. Three conservation plans were developed for aquatic ecosystems in the Hunter Valley, NSW, Australia… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/aqc.3208
Abstract: Freshwater macro‐organismic environmental DNA (eDNA) is gaining increasing popularity in detecting invasive species, assessing community assemblages, and in mapping the distribution of taxa that are rare or otherwise difficult to monitor. The objectives of this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/aqc.3231
Abstract: Evolutionary‐based measures of biodiversity play an increasingly important role in theoretical conservation biology, complementing more traditional methods such as patterns of species richness and endemicity. To date, very few studies have used evolutionary data to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3652
Abstract: Abstract The freshwater–marine transition that characterizes an estuarine system can provide multiple entry options for invading species, yet the relative importance of this gradient in determining the functional contribution of invading species has received little… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9300
Abstract: Abstract Freshwater habitats of the Caucasus biodiversity hotspot represent a center of endemism for the gobiid genus Ponticola Iljin, 1927. Hitherto, large‐scale molecular studies, owing to restricted taxon and geographical sampling, have failed to give… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9663
Abstract: Abstract Despite their diversity, global distribution, and apparent effects on host biology, the rules of life that govern variation in microbiomes among host species remain unclear, particularly in freshwater organisms. In this study, we sought… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9981
Abstract: Abstract Temperature is a key abiotic factor controlling population dynamics. In facultatively sexual animals inhabiting the temperate zone, temperature can regulate the switch between asexual and sexual modes of reproduction, initiates growth or dormancy, and… read more here.
