MethodsWe quantified flow regime variability, river regulation and fish movement to develop generalised additive mixed models to predict movement probability for Murray cod and golden perch. ResultsBoth species showed strong positive relationships between discharge and movement. Murray cod did not show any association with river regulation; however, medium-sized individuals were significantly more likely to move than were smaller or larger fish. Golden perch movements varied among levels of regulation, were more likely to move as body weight increased and showed seasonality of movement, moving less during winter.

In the short-term, rapid responses of wetland biota and ecological processes to wetting and drying, which influence ecosystem structure and function, enable rapid reproduction which enhances long-term resilience. However, over longer periods, mechanisms such as seed dormancy and persistent seed and egg banks enable dryland wetland ecosystems to recover after major environmental perturbations such as mega-droughts or wildfire. Climate change is likely to have a significant effect on key drivers of ecological response in dryland wetlands, including hydrology and its interface with other climatic stimuli, e.g. temperature, as well as the frequency and intensity of extreme events. Like species, wetland ecosystems may respond to climate change in three main ways, namely, disappear, persist without significant adjustment, or transform. Here, we consider the conditions under which each of these responses may eventuate for dryland wetlands, by using wetland vegetation of the northern Murray–Darling Basin Australia, as a case study. We also explore what wetland transformation might entail in this region in terms of wetland ecological character and the key values this supports. Finally, we consider the implications for wetland policy and management at present and as trajectories of wetland change unfold.","PeriodicalId":18209,"journal":{"name":"Marine and Freshwater Research","volume":"71 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141572690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

AimWe aimed to fill critical knowledge gaps on population dynamics and exploitation levels of M. cyprinoides along the south-western coast of India. MethodsStructured length frequency-based population dynamics models were used to determine the growth, mortality and exploitation levels of the species. Key resultsHabitat-related variations in growth patterns were found, with positive allometric growth in the marine (b = 3.208), and negative allometric growth in freshwater (2.759) and estuarine (2.876) habitats. Different estimates of natural mortality suggested high fishing pressure, potentially threatening the long-term sustainability of local M. cyprinoides populations. ConclusionsThis study provides the first comprehensive estimates of demographic parameters of M. cyprinoides, and contributes significantly to our knowledge required for the management of Indo-Pacific tarpon fisheries. The critical need to address overfishing and habitat degradation to ensure long-term sustainability of local populations is highlighted.

In this context, many of these services rely on the ecological functions performed by macroinvertebrates. Therefore, understanding the relationship between human impacts and the functional diversity of macroinvertebrates is urgent. AimsWe aimed at analysing the relationship between human impact and the functional diversity of macroinvertebrates in rivers of agricultural lands of Argentina. MethodsWe sampled seven rivers of central Argentina during three seasons (spring, autumn and winter). In each site, we measured pesticides, metals, chlorophyll-a, nutrients and the taxonomic and functional diversity of macroinvertebrates. We summarised the environmental information using principal-component analysis and assessed the relationship between the assemblage metrics with the first three principal components. Key resultsWe found that functional metrics presented a negative relationship with the human-impact gradient in the three seasons. However, taxonomic metrics showed less sensitivity. ConclusionThe functional diversity of macroinvertebrates, but not the taxonomic diversity, decreases with increasing human impacts on rivers.

We aimed to establish plankton bioindicators of eutrophication that are not affected by salinity variation, which is essential for environmental monitoring of coastal lagoons. MethodsSampling was conducted for microprotozooplankton, chlorophyll-a, nutrients and sterols in eight tropical coastal lagoons with different saline and nutrient concentrations. A testate amoeba and rotifer bioindication index of eutrophication (T&R index) was proposed after establishing a list of indicator species on the basis of five statistical criteria and one bibliographic criterion. Key resultsSelected species, based on the six criteria, were Arcella hemisphaerica, Brachionus plicatilis, Galeripora (Arcella) discoides, Netzelia corona, Lecane closterocerca, Lepadela patella and Testudinela patina. Biodiversity measures, traditionally used in biomonitoring, varied negatively with salinity (r = −0.60 for Margalef richness and −0.59 for Shannon diversity) and were not correlated with nutrient concentrations. Conversely, the T&R index showed no correlation with salinity (r = 0.002) and was positively correlated with the trophic-state index (TSI) (r = 0.62).

As a high-precision interpolation method, Kriging was able to predict freshwater quality by using previously monitored data.

AimsThis study aims to propose an adaptive weighted-average Kriging (AWAK) method to further enhance the accuracy of freshwater-quality predictions. MethodsThe AWAK method consists of four main steps. First, the key parameters influencing pollution indicators are selected by FPS method. Subsequently, six different Kriging candidate models are constructed by using regression and correlation functions with different characteristics. Then, an enhanced-likelihood function is used to determine the weights of the six Kriging candidate models. Finally, AWAK is built by weighted sum of these six Kriging models.

Key resultsThe two species display different distributions within the estuary, being spatially and temporally segregated, with M. curema mostly inhabiting the inner estuary and M. rubrioculus inhabiting coastal marine habitats. ConclusionsThis decoupling in habitat use might be driven by distinct responses to environmental variability: M. curema is influenced by factors such as temperature and dissolved oxygen, whereas M. rubrioculus is influenced by variations in salinity.
