TL;DR: A holistic approach to the problems associated with finesediment is outlined to aid in the identification of sediment sources, transport, and deposition processes in the river catchment, and the multiple causes and deleterious impacts associated with fine sediments on riverinehabitats, primary producers, macroinvertebrates, and fisheries are identified.

TL;DR: A critical inter-disciplinary review of recent advances of research centred on the hyporheic zone (HZ) and highlights the current state of knowledge regarding hydrological, biogeochemical and ecohydrological process understanding is presented in this article.

TL;DR: The authors examines the biodiversity and wider ecosystem value of ponds with particular reference to the aquatic invertebrate and amphibian communities they support, and the adverse impact of anthropogenic activity on their aquatic habitats.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored and modeled relationships between a suite of flow regime predictors and macroinvertebrate community metrics from 83 rivers in England and Wales, using a two-stage analytical approach: (1) classification of 83 river basins based upon the magnitude and shape (form) of their long-term (1980-1999) average annual regime to group basins with similar flow responses; and (2) examination of relationships between the total of 201 flow regime descriptors identified by previous researchers and macro-vertebrates community metrics for the whole data set

TL;DR: It is indicated that FI is a primary driver of aquatic communities in temporary rivers, regardless of the biogeographic species pool, and resilience was not strongly influenced by spatial fragmentation patterns, suggesting that colonist sources other than adjacent perennial reaches were important.
