Spatial Segregation of Adult Aquatic Insects From the Water Surface to the Riparian Canopy in a Lowland River Knowledge of how aquatic insects use riparian zones can inform the conservation and management of both rivers and riparian zones. This study reports the habitat use and spatial segregation of wing...

I use spectrophotometry to measure chlorophyll-a on tiles at the bottom of my goldfish mesocosms. The chlorophyll-a concentrations are used as a proxies for algal growth to better understand how goldfish invasions impact benthic algae. #freshwaterbiology #invasivespecies #goldfish #algae

Our June issue of FBA Voice is out now! With restoration insights from the #RiverWensum, #ArcticCharr archival discoveries, a new Riverfly Partnership film & more!

The Impact of Oil Palm Plantations and Pastures on Benthic Prokaryotic and Fungal Communities in Tropical Streams The expansion of oil palm plantations and cattle grazing lands has a detrimental impact on freshwater ecosystems, causing ecological degradation and biodiversity loss in the tropics, although litt...

While oil palms and pastures alter tropical stream microorganisms, riparian buffers offer a lifeline. 🚑💧 Saving biodiversity could depend on protecting these green corridors.

Who was... Kathleen Carpenter? A biography of Kathleen Carpenter, a pioneering freshwater ecologist.

Here is an informative article about Dr. Carpenter, written by @cduigan.bsky.social, who is probably the world's authority on this enigmatic scientist.
