Fish production in ponds has received less attention in the context of reconciliation between agricultural production and biodiversity conservation. These systems can contain remarkable biodiversity, ...

Aim Urbanisation is a dominant driver of landscape change leading to widespread displacement, degradation and fragmentation of habitat for native species and numerous studies have documented loss of...

Temporary ponds represent fragile habitats that host species of high ecological and conservation interest. High-altitude ponds, although often considered pri...

As cities expand globally, the ratio of artificial to natural freshwater habitats is increasing. While public urban ponds have been the subject of an increasing number of biodiversity studies, the bi...

Wetlands have suffered severe losses due to land-use and climate change, strongly contributing to the recent biodiversity crisis. This is especially t…

Pond network creation can enhance freshwater biodiversity. However, environmental and spatial processes that structure macrophytes, a group central to…

Temporary ponds are among the most widespread lentic ecosystems on Earth, capable of sustaining remarkably high levels of biodiversity. Their defining…

Temporary ponds, characterized by periodic or intermittent hydroperiods, are globally widespread in all the biogeographical regions and host peculiar biotic communities. Here we investigated shifts in...

Wetlands are recognized as threatened habitats in Europe, having largely disappeared globally because of ongoing anthropogenic pressures. Particularly…

Agricultural practices are a major source of pesticide contamination in freshwater ecosystems. Lentic small water bodies (LSWBs), which make up the vast majority of freshwater systems, are particularl...

Ponds are increasingly being recognised as critical to biodiversity conservation in UK landscapes. This new two-day course will introduce participants to pond restoration science and best practice. Gr...
