Freshwater sustains life and plays a crucial role in the Earth’s system. Understanding the characteristics of freshwater resources, their changes and links to biogeochemical cycles and food web dynamics is vital for effective water resource management, environmental conservation and climate mitigation and adaptation. We include studies from all disciplines on the independent or coupled hydrological, biogeochemical cycles, ecological dynamics in freshwater ecosystems and their interactions with climate and society over multiple spatial and temporal scales.
