Spatiotemporal response of aquatic native and nonnative taxa to wildfire disturbance in a desert stream network
Many native freshwater animals are imperiled as a result of habitat alteration, species introductions and climate-moderated changes in disturbance regimes. Native conservation and nonnative species management could benefit from greater understanding of critical factors promoting or inhibiting …

Integrating Taxonomic Meta-Analysis and Mussel Physiology to Assess Secondary Salinization in Appalachian Headwaters and Urban Streams
… review showed salinization negatively impacted freshwater animals in 78% of non-arthropod invertebrates, 68% of zooplankton, 62% of amphibians and insects, 56% of mollusks and crustaceans, and 51% of fishes. However, the diverse study designs and ionic concentrations hindered generalizable …

Advances in the isotopic analysis of biogenic phosphates and their utility in ecophysiological studies of aquatic vertebrates
Distinguishing marine and freshwater animals in the fossil record is a long-standing problem in paleontology. The physiological tolerances of extinct animals usually are inferred from environmental indicators and/or on the physiology of nearest living relatives. These types of evidence are often …
