Ecology and biodiversity studies

This cluster of papers explores the ecological impact of beavers (Castor fiber and Castor canadensis) on various ecosystems, focusing on their role as ecosystem engineers, the influence of beaver dams on biodiversity and habitat restoration, and the geomorphological and hydrological effects of beaver activities. The papers also investigate the interactions between beavers and other species, such as fish, amphibians, and waterbirds.
