EFFECTS OF FOREST AND LANDSCAPE RESTORATION ON STREAM ECOSYSTEMS: A LITERATURE REVIEW

Ecological restoration offers a promising way to conserve biodiversity and ecosystem services in human-modified landscapes. Riparian restoration has been applied to enhance stream ecosystem services, including flood control, clean water, and maintenance of biodiversity. However, the effects of forest and landscape restoration (FLR) on a larger spatial scale on stream ecosystem processes and biodiversity are rarely evaluated. We analyzed the literature to identify knowledge gaps and provide guidance for future research in FLR focusing on stream biodiversity and ecosystem services. We applied automated text mining and topic modelling to track the evolution of research topics within peer-reviewed articles of FLR published over the last 30 years, explore interconnections among these topics and identify emerging avenues for investigation. Gaps in information between growing and decreasing topics highlight the need for studies exploring effects of FLR on stream ecosystems and improve collaboration networks. Riparian restoration also involves reestablishment of aquatic-terrestrial links and our literature analysis may stimulate scientists and practitioners to more commonly evaluate the effects of FLR on stream ecosystem functioning and biomonitoring. This seems crucial to increase the efficacy of restoration efforts in the current UN decade on ecosystem restoration.
