Abstract. The structure, function, and dynamics of Earth's terrestrial ecosystems are profoundly influenced by how often (frequency) long (duration) they inundated with water. A diverse array natural human-engineered systems experience temporally variable inundation whereby fluctuate between non-inundated states. Variable spans extreme events to predictable sub-daily cycles. Variably (VIEs) include hillslopes, non-perennial streams, wetlands, floodplains, temporary ponds, tidal systems, storm-impacted coastal zones, systems. VIEs in terms regimes, water chemistry flow velocity, soil sediment properties, vegetation, many other properties. spatial temporal scales vast, ranging from sub-meter whole landscapes sub-hourly multi-decadal. broad range system types makes it challenging predict the hydrology, biogeochemistry, ecology, physical evolution VIEs. Despite all experiencing loss gain an overlying column, rarely considered together conceptual, theoretical, modeling, or measurement frameworks approaches. Studying has potential generate mechanistic understanding that is transferable across a much broader environmental conditions, relative knowledge generated studying any one VIE type. We postulate enhanced transferability will be important for predicting changes function response global change. Here we aim catalyze cross-VIE science studies drivers impacts To this end, complement expert mini-reviews eight major overviews VIE-relevant methods challenges associated scale. conclude perspectives on can derive via unifying conceptual models which studied multi-dimensional space.

(Dis)connecting the Globe Through Water‐Driven Ecological and Biogeochemical Corridors in the Polar‐Alpine Biome

Global Change Biology, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 30(12)

Global change is causing the melting of ice masses, permafrost thawing, and shrinking glaciers, thereby reshaping nature's rhythms. Longer thaw phases more frequent dry periods are transforming water-driven transitional ecosystems (e.g., glacier-fed streams) in Polar-Alpine biome. This shift risks replacing unique, specialist species with generalist ones, leading to "biotic homogenization"-a loss diversity that reduces ecosystems' adaptability change. While may be present at local levels, this often comes expense critical roles specialists play. These changes disrupt balance provision vital ecosystem services.
