Journal Article
Zieritz, A., Froufe, E., Bolotov, I., Gonçalves, D. V., Aldridge, D. C., Bogan, A. E., …Lopes-Lima, M. (2021). Mitogenomic phylogeny and fossil-calibrated mutation rates for all F- and M-type mtDNA genes of the largest freshwater mussel family, the Unionidae (Bivalvia). Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 193(3), 1088-1107. https://doi.org/10.1093/zoolinnean/zlaa153

The Unionidae represent an excellent model taxon for unravelling the drivers of freshwater diversity, but, phylogeographic studies on Southeast Asian taxa are hampered by lack of a comprehensive phylogeny and mutation rates for this fauna. We present... Read More about Mitogenomic phylogeny and fossil-calibrated mutation rates for all F- and M-type mtDNA genes of the largest freshwater mussel family, the Unionidae (Bivalvia).

IEEE Optical earth observation satellite sensors often provide a coarse spatial resolution (CR) multispectral (MS) image together with a fine spatial resolution (FR) panchromatic (PAN) image. Pansharpening is a technique applied to such satellite sen... Read More about Object-Based Area-to-Point Regression Kriging for Pansharpening.

Anthropogenic litter is a novel habitat for aquatic macroinvertebrates in urban rivers (2020)
Journal Article
Wilson, H. L., Johnson, M. F., Wood, P. J., Thorne, C. R., & Eichhorn, M. P. (2021). Anthropogenic litter is a novel habitat for aquatic macroinvertebrates in urban rivers. Freshwater Biology, 66(3), 524-534. https://doi.org/10.1111/fwb.13657

1. Anthropogenic litter (solid manufactured waste) is an understudied but pervasive element of river systems worldwide. Its physical structure generally differs from natural substrates, such as gravel and cobbles (hereafter rocks). Consequently, anth...

High rates of biodeposition and N-excretion indicate strong functional effects of mussels (Bivalvia: Unionida) in certain anthropogenic tropical freshwater habitats (2020)
Journal Article
Zieritz, A., Ning, C. W., Mcgowan, S., & Gibbins, C. (2021). High rates of biodeposition and N-excretion indicate strong functional effects of mussels (Bivalvia: Unionida) in certain anthropogenic tropical freshwater habitats. Hydrobiologia, 848(12-13), 3153-3166. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10750-020-04464-y

The functional roles of freshwater mussels (Unionida) in tropical systems are poorly understood. We quantified the effects of mussel filtration, excretion and deposition in three anthropogenic tropical systems, i.e. a man-made lake, abandoned mining...

Water temperature (Tw) is a primary determinant of river ecosystem health and function that is strongly controlled by climate variability and change but mediated by catchment properties. We apply a nested analysis to: (1) evaluate how annual and seas... Read More about Climate variability and implications for keeping rivers cool in England.
