Current rates of climate change are unprecedented, and biological responses to these
changes have also been rapid at the levels of ecosystems, communities, and species. Most …

Shallow lakes, one of the most widespread water bodies in the world landscape, are very
sensitive to climate change. Several theories predict changes in community traits, relevant …

Different components of global environmental change are typically studied and managed
independently, although there is a growing recognition that multiple drivers often interact in …

Despite uncertainty in all levels of analysis, recent and long-term changes in our climate

Biological invasions continue to accelerate, and there is a need for closer integration
between invasive species research and on-the-ground management. In many regions …

Stream fish are expected to be significantly influenced by climate change, as they are
ectothermic animals whose dispersal is limited within hydrographic networks. Nonetheless …

In this review, we (i) describe smallmouth bass (Micropterus dolomieu Lacepède, 1802)
invasions past, present, and future;(ii) summarize the impact that this species can have on …

Climate change will ultimately affect the supply and quality of freshwater lakes and rivers
throughout the world. This study examines the potential impacts of climate change on …

Predicted increases in water temperature in response to climate change will have large
implications for aquatic ecosystems, such as altering thermal habitat and potential range …
