Under global change, the ion concentration of aquatic ecosystems is changing worldwide.
Many freshwater ecosystems are being salinized by anthropogenic salt inputs, whereas …

In spite of being a worldwide phenomenon that can have important ecological, economic
and social consequences, freshwater salinization (ie the increase in ion concentrations in …

The article focuses on the current state-of-the-art conditions of water beetle systematics,
including description of water beetle taxa, their evolutionary relationships and their use as …

Beetles have colonized water many times during their history, with some of these events
involving extensive evolutionary radiations and multiple transitions between land and water …

Plant soil specialists contribute greatly to global diversity; however, the ecoevolutionary
forces responsible for generating this diversity are poorly understood. We integrate …

Exposing organisms to a particular stressor may enhance tolerance to a subsequent stress,
when protective mechanisms against the two stressors are shared. Such cross-tolerance is a …

Considering how organisms adapt to stress is essential if we are to anticipate biological
responses to global change in ecosystems. Communities in stressful environments can …

The effect of stressors on biodiversity can vary in relation to the degree to which biological
communities have adapted over evolutionary time. We compared the responses of …

Abiotic stress shapes how communities assemble and support ecological functions.
However, it remains unclear whether artificially increasing or decreasing stress levels would …

Odonata is amphibian insects, widely used in studies of aquatic ecosystems. In order for us
to improve their use as bioindicator organisms, there is a need to increase our knowledge of …
