Presentation
Full-text available
Biodiversity loss and declining ecosystem functioning is spreading at alarming rates worldwide. In this context, pondscapes, including temporary ponds, have emerged as potential Nature-based Solutions that offer valuable ecosystem services and connect freshwater habitats as stepping-stone ecosystems. However, agricultural intensification and hydrol...
Data
These are the results of the eLTER PLUS Transnational Access (TA) titled "Hydromophological, phisico-chemical and biological patterns of agricultural aquatic ecosystems (AGROAQ)" carried on Portugal. Here we share our results obtained on the studied ponds and troughs.

Presentation
Full-text available
Temporary ponds are priority habitats for conservation under the Habitats Directive, harbouring singular fauna and flora. Some of these emblematic species are large branchiopods, being some rare and relict species considered as ‘‘sentinels’’ in temporary ponds, i.e., reflecting good conservation status. In recent decades, the biodiversity of tempor...

Permanent ponds represent important habitats for aquatic biodiversity and provide vital ecosystem services as key elements for blue landscape connectivity. Although mostly neglected in management programmes, protection schemes and biodiversity studies in general, ponds constitute habitats with high α- and spatial β-diversity, providing unique habit...
Presentation
Ponds, whilst being mostly neglected in management and protection plans, can constitute habitats with high α- and β-diversity, including many rare and endemic species. In heterogeneous landscapes, ponds can also contribute to habitat connectivity and enhance γ-diversity whilst delivering many ecosystem services. Semi-aquatic insects are one of the...

Whilst being small and shallow, permanent ponds provide valuable habitats for a multitude of organisms as well as provide habitats for animals like aquatic insects and others, including many rare species. These ponds, which were often neglected in limnological studies, were the core of our joint project, the 3rd freshwater project - EUROPONDS in or...
Poster
Full-text available
Within the EUROPONDS project we looked into the contribution of aquatic invertebrates to terrestrial ecosystems, which are globally declining, in various countries all over Europe. Our study encompassed a restored quarry in Alpedrete, Madrid, Spain, a landscape destined for livestock activities. We hypothesized that the emergence during autumn and...
