Well stated Julie et al.! As you suggest, characterizing “unimpaired” flows is critical to gaining insight into the evolutionary history of riverine biota and into understanding historical contols on contemporary riverine function (e.g., through sediment transport and storage,

riparian condition, ecosystem service provision). “Functional flows” aim to identify components of “unimpaired” flows that provide the process-basis of contemporary river biodiversity and ecosystem function.

As such, they offer a framework for adaptively managing flow-ecology relationships critical to ecological resilience under climate change.

Perpetuating the story that women are poor mentors for other women is a really dangerous message. Women need mentors, and role models. Career success should NOT be measured simply on publications. Yikes Nature Communications

In 2017, a Chinese ship was detained in the #GalápagosMarineReserve, with > 7 thousand shark carcasses🦈🦈. Today, we published the study of this event and its implications for shark conservation. USFQ COCIBA, Galapagos Science Center, Parque Galápagos. Open: doi.org/10.1038/s41598…

But it’s not only knowledge gaps or disparities in access to information, but also insufficient communication and exchange, and inadequate policy, lack of political will, or the decoupling of current policy from demonstrated best practices that we will have to fix.
