Analyses across wetland sites revealed that wetland type, not geographical location, corresponded to microbial community composition and diversity. As might be expected by ecological wetland differences, bog samples derived from Sweden (STM) and Minnesota (SPRUCE), were more alike one another than bog ...
We measured the size of each wetland and its component classes and subclasses with a polar planimeter, calculated the amount of change, if any, between 1939 and 1972, and determined the cause of each change insofar as possible. Results Figure 1. Map of South Kingstown, Rhode Island, ...
. Yet, much of it is either rapidly decomposed or exported from the wetland system (Mitsch and Gosselink2015; Pan et al.2024). Belowground biomass (BGB) (e.g. root biomass and fungi), on the other hand, is often incorporated directly into the soil profile and inherently protected by root...
Groundwater inflow, when it occurs, is most apparent by its impact on the wetland vegetation. This can lead to anomalies in the vegetation, exemplified by the local increase of less salt-tolerant species such as thecommon reedPhragmites australis(Chambers et al., 2003) and the growth and deve...
South America is home to the highest freshwater fish biodiversity on Earth, and the hotspot of species richness is located in the western Amazon basin. The location of this hotspot is enigmatic, as it is inconsistent with the pattern observed in river sy

Map and pictures of the six sampling sites (A-F) as part of the LTER-site REES. This site is located at the Lower Rhine in North Rhine-Westphalia (dashed red line, except for siteF). The map inlet shows the location of the sampling site in Germany (light blue) within Europe. Sample...
The location and habitat type composition of the study sites (S1-S9) in three wetlands (A1-A3) along Lake Balaton. Areas: A1 – Kis-Balaton (Phase II), A2 – Nagyberek (Fehérvíz), A3 – Ordacsehi. In the investigated area, the following habitat types were distinguished: Grasslands ...

(Kaushal et al.2019,2023a,b,2024). At the same, decreased freshwater flows, droughts, and drying rivers can also increase saltwater intrusion risks. Variability in the location of the salt front of rivers and estuaries likely depends on: tides, winds, waves and storm surges, increased ...
