Regional, multi-decadal analysis on the Loire River basin reveals that stream temperature increases faster than air temperature
Stream temperature appears to be increasing globally, but its rate remains poorly
constrained due to a paucity of long-term data and difficulty in parsing effects of hydroclimate …
