Impoundment effects in the population of Auchenipterus osteomystax (Siluriformes: Auchenipteridae): a Neotropical reservoir case by Elcio Barili, Rosemara Fugi, Gisele Caroline Novakowski, Angelo Antonio Agostinho

“…The diet variation between the two periods, which had a time lag of three years between them, was much less pronounced in the natural environment, where the resource availability is essentially regulated by seasonality. Thus, our hypothesis was accepted; that is, the interannual variations in the diet of A. osteomystax are more relevant in an artificial environment than in a natural one. …”

Divergent future drought projections in UK river flows and groundwater levels by S. Parry, J. D. Mackay, J. D. Mackay, T. Chitson, J. Hannaford, J. Hannaford, E. Magee, M. Tanguy, V. A. Bell, K. Facer-Childs, A. Kay, R. Lane, R. J. Moore, S. Turner, J. Wallbank

“…A number of explanatory factors for this divergence between river flow and groundwater are discussed. The sensitivity to seasonal changes in precipitation and potential evapotranspiration is proposed as a principal driver of divergence because low river flows are more influenced by shorter-term rainfall deficits in the summer half-year, whilst groundwater drought appears to be offset somewhat by the wetter winter signal in the RCM projections. …”

PHOTOCHEMICAL TRANSFORMATION OF DISSOLVED ORGANIC MATTER AND BEHAVIOR OF METALS IN THE WATERS OF THE SOUTHERN TAIGA BOG COMPLEX, WESTERN SIBERIA by Tatiana V. Raudina, Sergei V. Smirnov, Georgyi I. Istigechev, Oleg S. Pokrovsky

“…Work is underway to study the dissolved organic carbon bioavailability, but the mechanisms of its photochemical transformations in different seasons of the year have not been studied. At the same time, photochemical mineralization of dissolved organic compounds largely regulates the biogeochemical cycles of elements by changing their bioavailability, the intensity of carbon dioxide emission from surface waters into the atmosphere, and the removal of dissolved trace elements through precipitation and coagulation. …”
