DOI: 10.1007/s11273-020-09714-3
Abstract: The evaluation of nitrogen (N) removal in aquatic ecosystems within human exploited watersheds may allow the setting of upper limits of N use in agriculture. However, such an evaluation is complex owing to the small… read more here.

DOI: 10.3996/072017-jfwm-058
Abstract: Abstract Anadromous salmonids can be vulnerable to entrainment at diversion intake structures on streams, effectively trapping fish in irrigation canals and removing them from a population. Currently little is known about how the differences in… read more here.
