The Role of Local and Upstream Colonisation in Determining Stream Periphyton Metacommunity Assemblages by Daniel Zamorano, Travis Ingram, Christoph D. Matthaei

“…We covered 25‐m sections of streambed with plastic silage cover sheets in three streams in Southern New Zealand, allowing river water to flow over the sheets. Samples on top of these sheets allowed periphyton colonisation only by drifting upstream propagules, while ‘control’ samples placed directly upstream of the plastic sheets were colonised by local and upstream propagules. …”

Introducing “Disrupted Histories, Recovered Pasts” by Sian Sullivan, Michèle Baussant, Lindsey Dodd, Olivette Otele, Irène Dos Santos

“…In the post- conflict and colonial contexts of our cases, we see “disruption” as present in three senses: as the productive ways in which multiple experiences retrieved through oral histories may refract and revise historical analysis; as the happening histories of objectively disruptive events break the flow of individual and collective experience; and as a strategy for cross-disciplinary research to disrupt and democratise conventional understanding by drawing attention to occluded experiences. …”
