We provide a synthesis of how the regional fauna of land snails, a flagship group among
invertebrates, is distributed across ecosystems and how that translates to conservation …

Calcareous spring fens accumulate carbon-rich deposits through carbonate precipitation
and slow organic-matter decomposition, which can be affected by a lowering water table …

Groundwater-fed helocrene springs constitute hydrologically heterogeneous environment,
vulnerable to human and climate-induced changes. Using quantitative samples of clitellate …

Sedge-moss fens are declining and are being replaced by more productive ecosystems in
agricultural landscapes as a result of changes in the way how the landscape is used by …

Spring helocrenes are a unique aquatic environment with high biotic diversity. Although
environmental heterogeneity has traditionally been assumed to explain the high species …
