Hybridization and the evolution of invasiveness in plants and other organisms (2009, background): “The role of gene flow from non-native populations in changing ecosystem relationships has not been examined (Sweeney et al. 2004).”
Stream metabolism and the open diel oxygen method: Principles, practice, and perspectives (2015, background): “There is now a huge international effort trying to define river health (Sweeney et al. 2004; Young et al. 2008; Palmer and Febria 2012).”
The potential ecological costs and cobenefits of REDD: a critical review and case study from the Amazon region (2009, background): “Forest streams typically flow under the closed forest canopy and food chains develop from forest organic material (Goulding, 1980; Lowrance et al., 1997; Pusey & Arthington, 2003; Sweeney et al., 2004).”
Chapter Three - From Natural to Degraded Rivers and Back Again: A Test of Restoration Ecology Theory and Practice (2011, background): “Further, the instream capacity to cycle nutrients and toxic compounds can decrease when woody riparian vegetation is lost (Sweeney et al., 2004), and decomposition of leaf litter becomes increasingly driven bymicrobial, rather thanmacroinvertebrate, activity (Hladyz et al.”
Interaction effects between economic development and forest cover determine deforestation rates (2006, background): “Furthermore, the impacts of widespread deforestation are reflected at a regional level in vastly elevated rates of soil erosion, the sedimentation of major waterways and an increased frequency and severity of floods (Sa´ nchez-Azofeifa et al., 2002; Bruijnzeel, 2004; Sweeney et al., 2004 ).”
The Stream Biome Gradient Concept: factors controlling lotic systems across broad biogeographic scales (2014, background): “However, stream channels in naturally forested areas are wider in forests (where root stabilization and introduction of woody debris combine to widen channels) than in grassdominated pastures that have been converted from forests (Davies-Colley 1997, Sweeney et al. 2004, McBride et al. 2010).”
Reach-scale effects of riparian forest cover on urban stream ecosystems (2005, background): “However, because streams were ~20% wider in forested reaches compared with open reaches, there may be differences in overall production and nutrient uptake potential per metre of stream length (Sweeney et al. 2004).”
Integrating species life‐history traits and patterns of deforestation in amphibian conservation planning (2010, background): “A lack of careful land-use planning in many countries has led to the disproportionate destruction of riparian vegetation, causing a drastic reduction in the availability and quality of water (Sweeney et al., 2004).”
Freshwater ecosystem structure–function relationships: from theory to application (2009, background): “(with the associated water cycle) provide important ecosystem services to humans (e.g. Malmqvist & Rundle, 2002; Sweeney et al., 2004).”
Is It a Crime to Produce Ecological Disorganization? Why Green Criminology and Political Economy Matter in the Analysis of Global Ecological Harms (2013, background): “2006), fish species diversity (Lorion and Kennedy 2009) and invertebrate diversity (Harding 2003); and numerous impacts on various natural water systems (Sweeney et al. 2004; Coe et al. 2009).”
