Broad-scale patterns of invertebrate richness and community composition in temporary rivers: effects of flow intermittence (2014, background): “Given the increasing intensity and spatial extent of FI 305 in rivers due to anthropogenic water abstraction and climate change (Meybeck 2003, Larned 306 et al. 2010), our findings indicate the potential for widespread declines in river biodiversity 307 resulting from increased flow intermittence.”
The Gulf: a young sea in decline. (2010, background): “Water regulation, fragmentation, sediment imbalance, partial or complete drying, salinisation, chemical contamination, acidification, eutrophication and microbial contamination are some of the syndromes commonly associated with damming rivers (Maybeck, 1990), and in the GAP area itself there have be”
Evolving water science in the Anthropocene (2013, background): “Those societies that survived over time found ways to use The Boran pastoralists of northern Kenya and Ethiopia have an understanding of groundwater flows in this semi-desert area and how these feed the wells on which they and their cattle rely.”
State of the world's freshwater ecosystems: physical, chemical, and biological changes. (2011, background): “Multiple processes are involved in salinization of freshwaters, including pointsource discharge of treated effluents, irrigation, marine saltwater intrusion due to overpumping of coastal aquifers, sea-level rise, and, in some cold climate regions, road salting (108), but irrigation and water abstrac”
Parameters selection for water quality index in the assessment of the environmental impacts of land-based trout farms (2014, background): “Therefore, TSS could be neglected because its concentrations may be dictated by natural dynamics, as previously mentioned for this study and elsewhere (Meybeck, 2003).”
