DOI: 10.1007/s10750-017-3503-x
Abstract: Water browning, due to increased runoff of terrestrial dissolved organic carbon (DOC), has recently gained considerable attention. While it is well settled how browning affects light regime and thereby aquatic primary production, other impacts on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0267801
Abstract: Freshwater ecosystems host disproportionately high numbers of species relative to their surface area yet are poorly protected globally. We used data on the distribution of 1631 species of aquatic plant, mollusc, odonate and fish in… read more here.
