A global synthesis of human impacts on the multifunctionality of streams and rivers

Mario Brauns et al.

Summary: Human impacts, such as nutrient pollution and land-use change, have led to declines in the quality and quantity of freshwater resources. This study analyzes the effects of human stressors on stream ecosystem functions and finds that most stressors inhibit ecosystem functioning. Nitrate uptake efficiency is particularly affected, with agriculture having the largest inhibitory effect. However, there are both negative and positive effects within each stressor-function pair. Wastewater effluents, agriculture, and urban land use have the strongest overall effects. These findings highlight the importance of understanding the multifunctionality of streams and rivers and the need for ecological function-based freshwater management strategies.

Resource supply and organismal dominance are associated with high secondary production in temperate agricultural streams

Romy Wild et al.

Summary: Agricultural land-use has various impacts on stream ecosystems, including nutrient and pesticide contamination, riparian clear-cutting, and hydromorphological degradation. These changes affect the abiotic environment and direct productivity of macroinvertebrate communities. Additionally, biological mechanisms such as species interactions, richness, competition, and predation indirectly affect macroinvertebrate productivity. This study found that agricultural streams had higher macroinvertebrate secondary production, biomass, and density compared to forested streams. This was associated with higher nutrient concentrations, riparian herbaceous vegetation, organic carbon, and chlorophyll-a concentrations in agricultural streams. Species richness and evenness were lower in agricultural streams, indicating density compensation and trait dominance as the mechanisms for higher productivity. The study emphasizes the importance of preserving riparian vegetation and limiting nutrient contamination in stream ecosystems.
