Fish habitat models for a future of novel riverscapes

Henry H. Hansen; Claudio Comoglio; Jelger Elings; Philip Ericsson; Peter Goethals; Marie-Pierre Gosselin; Franz Hölker; Christos Katopodis; Paul Kemp; Lovisa Lind; Rachel Mawer; Gloria Mozzi; John M. Nestler; John Piccolo; Johannes Radinger; Matthias Schneider; Velizara Stoilova; Bernhard Wegscheider; Eva Bergman

The authors introduce the concept of novel river landscapes, the limitations of current fish habitat models and opportunities for new models. They outline 3 priority data-driven opportunities that incorporate the novel riverscape concept: fish movement, river behavior, and drivers of novelty that all are integrated into a scale-based framework to guide the development of new models.

Unleashing the power of remote sensing data in aquatic research: Guidelines for optimal utilization

Igor Ogashawara; Sabine Wollrab; Stella A. Berger; Christine Kiel; Andreas Jechow; Alexis L. N. Guislain; Peter Gege; Thomas Ruhtz; Martin Hieronymi; Thomas Schneider; Gunnar Lischeid; Gabriel A. Singer; Franz Hölker; Hans-Peter Grossart; Jens C. Nejstgaard

The study aimed to elucidate the tradeoffs for the utilization of remote sensing data in limnological studies with an example based on the estimation of chlorophyll a due to its importance as a water quality indicator. Assessing atmospheric correction and product limitations ensures alignment with the limnological study.

The "Night Watch" consortium has compiled studies that use satellite images and star observations to analyse how artificial light is changing our night sky and nocturnal environments. Almost 50 per cent of the earth's surface is affected by light pollution, with natural darkness being outshone by a factor of up to several thousand. And light pollution is increasing: 2-10% each year.
