The relationship between network structure and dynamics is one of the most extensively investigated problems in theory complex systems recent years. Understanding this relevance to a range disciplines—from neuroscience geomorphology. A major strategy investigating quantitative comparison representation architecture (structural connectivity, SC) with (network) (functional FC). Here, we show that can distinguish two classes functional connectivity—one based on simultaneous activity (co-activity) nodes, other sequential nodes. We delineate these different categories dynamical processes—excitations, regular chaotic oscillators—and provide examples for SC/FC correlations both each models. expand theoretical view relationships, conceptual instances SC FC various application scenarios geomorphology, ecology, biology, socio-ecological systems. Seeing organisation processes either as governed by co-activity or allows us bring some order myriad observations relating function networks.

River catchments are dynamic networks that contain multiple levels of spatial and temporal complexity. Benthic macroinvertebrates key indicator taxa throughout catchments, beta diversity has been used as a metric to explore determinants community composition at the catchment scale. Although factors influencing have explored, understudied. In this study, we aimed understand how shifts in benthic macroinvertebrate over years related local regional variables. We regression with large, publicly available biomonitoring dataset from river California, USA, model effects environmental variables, flow variability, network context on diversity. The variables channel slope, drainage density, upstream area had strongest relationships Channel slope was negatively diversity, whereas density were positively Temporal also higher when rate magnitude rises falls hydrograph, well number zero-flow days duration higher. Overall, our results indicate freshwater is shaped by both long-term hydrological these may serve better predictors variability than point estimates measurements. Our study supports need for efforts long timescales highlights consider metacommunity change management systems.

Abstract Habitat fragmentation is a pervasive threat to biodiversity. Linearly arranged habitats such as stream networks are particularly vulnerable fragmentation. As the landscape becomes increasingly human dominated, conservation values of fragmented habitat patches cannot be overlooked. It critical understand demographic mechanisms population persistence or extirpation in patches. We studied dynamics spatially structured populations two Japanese landlocked salmonids persisting for >30 years headwater network that highly due low‐head dams mainstem. parameterised and analysed spatial matrix models using 9‐year mark–recapture data. Tributaries supported higher survival rates some life stages, movement was asymmetrical from tributaries Accordingly, growth were tributary than mainstem both species despite occupying only 12% 18% study by surface area.
