Diversity mediates the responses of invertebrate density to duration and frequency of rivers' annual drying regime

Rebeca Arias-Real et al.

Summary: This study explored how aquatic invertebrates in intermittent rivers and ephemeral streams respond to drying frequency and duration, finding that drying frequency reduces diversity while both drying duration and frequency negatively impact density metrics. Filterer, predator, and shredder trophic groups exhibited the strongest negative responses to drying, highlighting the importance of considering multiple drying characteristics in predicting drying responses in freshwater ecosystems.

Classification and trends in intermittent river flow regimes in Australia, northwestern Europe and USA: A global perspective

Eric Sauquet et al.

Summary: This study examined the spatial and temporal variability of flow intermittence across four countries, showing that aridity index is the most relevant explanatory factor of flow intermittence globally. A global classification of intermittent rivers was developed for trend detection in the occurrence of no-flow days in the future.

A global perspective on the functional responses of stream communities to flow intermittence

Julie Crabot et al.

Summary: This study examines the taxonomic and functional responses of aquatic macroinvertebrate communities to flow intermittence across river networks from three continents. Results show higher functional redundancy at sites with flow intermittence higher than 28%, and that functional redundancy does not compensate for biodiversity loss associated with increasing intermittence, contrary to traditional wisdom. Specific functional trait modalities, such as small body size, short life span, and high fecundity, are selected with increasing flow intermittence.

Global prevalence of non-perennial rivers and streams

Mathis Loic Messager et al.

Summary: Flowing waters play a crucial role in supporting global biodiversity, biogeochemical cycles, and human societies. However, the prevalence and significance of non-perennial rivers and streams are often overlooked, contributing to the degradation of water sources and livelihoods. By analyzing global data, it was found that a significant portion of the world's rivers experience at least one day of flow cessation each year, challenging traditional river concepts and highlighting the importance of considering intermittence in river management.
