Riparian zones possess an unusually diverse array of species and environmental

Hydrochory, or the passive dispersal of organisms by water, is an important means of
propagule transport, especially for plants. During recent years, knowledge about hydrochory …

Riparian corridors possess an unusually diverse array of species and environmental
processes. This" ecological" diversity is related to variable flood regimes, geomorphic …

This book describes the underlying water conditions and geologies that support viable
riparia, illustrates the ecological characteristics of riparia, and discusses how riparia are …

Riparian zones are among the most valuable ecosystems on the earth. They act as the
ecological engineers that improve river health through delivering a range of ecosystem …

We review patterns of plant species richness with respect to variables related to resource
availability and variables that have direct physiological impact on plant growth or resource …

Riparian vegetation and fluvial-geomorphic processes and landforms are intimately
connected parts of the bottomland landscape. Relations among vegetation, processes, and …

Recent research has emphasized the importance of riparian ecosystems as centers of
biodiversity and links between terrestrial and aquatic systems. Riparian ecosystems also …

Riparian structure and function were considered from a longitudinal perspective in order to
identify multiscale couplings with adjacent ecosystems and to identify research needs. 2. We …

I draw attention to the need for ecologists to take spatial structure into account more
seriously in hypothesis testing. If spatial autocorrelation is ignored, as it usually is, then …
