The role of river connectivity in the distribution of fish in an anthropized watershed.

The ongoing biodiversity crisis is especially severe in freshwater habitats. Anthropized watersheds, such as the Seine-Normandie basin in France, are particularly affected by human interference. The study of fish species distribution in watersheds often relies on environmental drivers such as land use or climate.

A global systematic map of knowledge of inland commercial navigation effects on freshwater ecosystems.

Inland navigation is one of the most sustainable transport alternatives to help decarbonise the world economy. However, the likely impacts of intensifying inland navigation on freshwater ecosystems are difficult to predict. A global map of knowledge that considers both abiotic and biotic responses to increasing shipping traffic and developing infrastructures is lacking.
