Published in 2020 at "Biological Invasions"

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-020-02349-8

Abstract: The ecology of headwater streams is tightly linked to the riparian zone through organic matter subsidies which are highly susceptible to alteration due to biological invasion. Lonicera maackii is a non-native shrub that is a… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Hydrobiologia"

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-019-04076-1

Abstract: Headwater streams drain large proportions of landscapes and represent a large proportion of stream habitat. Understanding their ecology requires more comparative data from the smallest streams. We describe dynamics of benthic organic material (BOM) and… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Wetlands Ecology and Management"

DOI: 10.1007/s11273-020-09741-0

Abstract: Headwater wetlands intercept, store, and transform nitrogen inputs from the landscape. However, uncertainties in rate estimates for processes such as denitrification in surface and subsurface soils hinder our ability to quantitatively predict the downstream water… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Forest Ecology and Management"

DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2019.04.010

Abstract: Abstract Recovery of understory vegetation after clearcut harvesting has received much attention but little is known about the recovery of riparian vegetation after forest harvesting along headwater streams, despite the critical role vegetation plays in… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of environmental radioactivity"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvrad.2019.106001

Abstract: Since headwater catchments are the source areas of 137Cs for downstream river systems, 137Cs discharge from headwater areas needs to be evaluated. Dissolved form (Dissolved), coarse organic matter (Org), and suspended sediments (SS) were sampled… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Land Use Policy"

DOI: 10.1016/j.landusepol.2018.03.043

Abstract: Abstract Headwaters are the low order catchments found on the upper margins of river basins. Designing effective land use policies for headwater areas is challenged by uncertainties related to changes in environmental, political and socio-economic… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Environmental science & technology"

DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.7b04449

Abstract: Stable isotope compositions of mercury (Hg) were measured in the outlet stream and in soil cores at different landscape positions in a 9.7-ha boreal upland-peatland catchment. An acidic permanganate/persulfate digestion procedure was validated for water… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Ecology letters"

DOI: 10.1111/ele.12897

Abstract: Understanding how water and solutes enter and propagate through freshwater landscapes in the Anthropocene is critical to protecting and restoring aquatic ecosystems and ensuring human water security. However, high hydrochemical variability in headwater streams, where… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal of Biogeography"

DOI: 10.1111/jbi.12870

Abstract: Aim The astonishing diversity of Neotropical fishes results from historical and ecological processes intrinsically related to the geomorphological evolution of this region. Headwater captures are important biogeographical processes that promote dispersal or isolation of fish… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Ecology and Environment"

DOI: 10.11614/ksl.2018.51.2.192

Abstract: Headwater streams provide various microhabitats, resulting in high diversity of macroinvertebrate community. In this study, we compared the differences of communities between two adjacent headwater streams (Jangjeon stream (GRJ; GRJ1-GRJ5) and Haanmi stream (GRH; GRH1-GRH3))… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Journal of Water and Climate Change"

DOI: 10.2166/wcc.2023.067

Abstract: The carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes from headwater streams are not well quantified and could be a source of significant carbon, particularly in systems underlain by carbonate lithology. Also, the sensitivity of carbonate systems to changes… read more here.
