“…Land-use change, fragmentation, pollution, and biological invasions are among the main threats to freshwater, riparian, and wetland biodiversity (Reid et al, 2019;Tolkkinen et al, 2020). Because biodiversity and ecosystem functioning are closely linked (Cardinale et al, 2006;Yachi & Loreau, 1999), these pressures also can lead to declines in ecological functioning and potentially to the collapse of important ecosystem services (Moi et al, 2022). These problems are particularly urgent because freshwater and riparian systems, despite their close ecological linkage, are rarely considered together in research, management, and policy (Maasri et al, 2022;Rodríguez-González et al, 2022).…”
