Short summary
Short summary
The loss and gain of surface water (variable inundation) are common processes across Earth. Global change shifts variable inundation dynamics, highlighting a need for unified understanding that transcends individual variably inundated ecosystems (VIEs). We review the literature, highlight challenges, and emphasize opportunities to generate transferable knowledge by viewing VIEs through a common lens. We aim to inspire the emergence of a cross-VIE community based on a proposed continuum approach.

Short summary
Short summary
Warming is expected to increase rates of microbial metabolism, but the effect of warming on nutrient demand is unclear. Our experiments demonstrate that microbial nutrient uptake increases less with temperature than metabolism, particularly when environmental nutrient concentrations are low. However, our simulation models suggest that warming may actually lead to declines in ecosystem-scale nutrient uptake as warming accelerates the depletion of carbon substrates required for microbial growth.

Short summary
Non-perennial streams are widespread and shape biodiversity, ecosystem processes, and downstream water quality. We combined sensor monitoring networks and spatiotemporal sampling approaches to track changes in hydrologic, ecological, and water quality patterns across in 3 watersheds between 2021-2024. This dataset provides valuable context as to how changes in stream flow and connectivity drive hydrologic, biogeochemical, and ecological patterns in intermittent streams in the southeastern US.
