Abstract: Urbanization has dramatically destabilized crucial ecosystem functions through extensive land‐use changes, habitat fragmentation, and modified species compositions. However, the mechanisms through which urbanization affects river ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF)—the simultaneous performance of multiple ecosystem functions—remain largely… read more here.
