1. Grow with the flow : Hydrological controls of riparian vegetation in boreal stream networks
Sammanfattning : What drives species diversity across landscapes is one of the most fundamental questions in ecology. Further, understanding the mechanisms underlying species diversity patterns is important not only for forming and challenging ecological theories but also essential for appropriate landscape management and effective nature conservation.

2. Water quality modeling based on landscape analysis: importance of riparian hydrology
Sammanfattning : Several studies in high-latitude catchments have demonstrated the importance of near-stream riparian zones as hydrogeochemical hotspots with a substantial influence on stream chemistry. An adequate representation of the spatial variability of riparian-zone processes and characteristics is the key for modeling spatio-temporal variations of stream-water quality. LÄS MER
3. Arthropods in Constructed Wetlands : Ecosystem Processes and Riparian Biodiversity
Sammanfattning : Constructed wetlands in the agricultural landscape are known to harbor immense arthropod biodiversity, however, riparian arthropod communities have often been neglected compared to aquatic communities when studying environmental responses. These wetlands are highly productive, but vary in form and composition based on its purpose, which influences the communities that inhabit them. LÄS MER
4. Groundwater connections between the boreal landscape and its headwater streams: the role of discrete riparian inflow points (DRIPs)
Sammanfattning : River networks connect the Swedish boreal landscape with the Baltic Sea. Groundwater provides a majority of the river water, and therefore it is important to understand the mechanisms of groundwater-stream interactions. The riparian zone, or near stream area, is an important terrestrial interface where groundwater becomes stream water. LÄS MER
5. Ice, wood and rocks : regulating elements in riverine ecosystems
Sammanfattning : Riparian ecosystems are of great importance in the landscape, connecting landscape elements longitudinally and laterally and often encompassing sharp environmental gradients in ecological processes and communities. They are influenced by fluvial disturbances such as flooding, erosion and sediment deposition, which create dynamic and spatially heterogeneous habitats that support a high diversity of species.
