The paper “Streamflow regulation effects in the Mediterranean rivers: How far and to what extent are aquatic and riparian communities affected?” was published on Science of the Total Environment journal (https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/science-of-the-total-environment). The study focuses on how different plant groups (macrophytes, bryophytes, and riparian woody vegetation) respond to hydrological alterations along the river and across the riparian zone downstream of dams. Particularly, it aims to determine the degree of regulation [DOR] and distance from dam [DFD], where river regulation no longer significantly affects plant communities.
