Our hydrobiologists reveal, thanks to the Horizon 2020 project DRYvER, the impacts of current and future river drying up to the year 2100 In the year 2025, based on research within the Horizon 2020 project addressing river drying, four articles were published involving our hydrobiologists Petr Pařil and his Croatian PhD student Luka Polović. They relate to predictions of the impacts of river drying up to 2100 and include a focus on the South Moravian Velička River basin. In these publications, the authors analyze how aquatic invertebrates survive drying across various European and other continental climate types. Using the model group of aquatic insects, caddisflies, they demonstrate the importance of connecting isolated river segments, without which recolonization of drying areas is very limited.

Our hydrobiologists have been involved in research in the #H2020 #DRYvER project, revealing how drying rivers will affect aquatic life up to 2100.

Very grateful to the #DRYVER project & all collaborators for making this piece of work possible!
Real #interdisciplinary research combining hydrological modelling + biodiversity + ecosystem functioning.

🔊Stay tuned for coming updates!

Amazing collaboration within the #DRYvER project with @rsarremejane.bsky.social and @tdatry.bsky.social among others!

Connectivity‐Driven Assembly of Trichoptera Metacommunities Across River Networks With Different Drying Patterns Spatial connectivity varies temporally due to fragmentation caused by drying and may potentially define the diversity and composition of communities. We studied spatiotemporal patterns in three dr...

Some weeks ago we published a work leaded by #Dorottya & @csabaiz.bsky.social in #FWB where we looked at the relevance of spatiotemporal connectivity across different intermittent streams 😄

A nice output from our exchanges in #Pécs around #DRYvER project @tdatry.bsky.social

we show macroinvertebrate communities in drying river networks across Europe shift based on how often—and how long—rivers dry, and how well-connected they are.

Projections of streamflow intermittence under climate change in European drying river networks Abstract. Climate and land use changes, as well as human water use and flow alteration, are causing worldwide shifts in river flow dynamics. During the last decades, low flows, flow intermittence, and...

How will #climatechange impact #rivers across Europe? 🌍 #DRYvER H2020's model projects increases in frequency & duration of drying periods.

Shoutout to Annika Künne in my group @uni-jena.de for leading key parts of modeling & analysis! 👏

Today was our final #DRYvER review meeting with our PO & reviewers. A cascade of entousiastic, rewarding and positive comments on the massive work achieved by the large & interdisciplinary team, which I am proud to conduct.

Stay tuned, as only half of our work is already published.

“Basically, rivers will become more seasonal in Europe and, in the south, the dry season will be longer. In addition, there will be more and more extreme drought events” says @Nuriabonada.
