Abstract

Non-perennial rivers and streams - those that periodically cease flowing - are critical components of aquatic systems and comprise over half of global river and stream systems. We argue for coordinated, collaborative, standardized, and open efforts to understand their unique biogeochemical behaviour, which is becoming ever more pressing due to pronounced shifts between wet and dry as the climate changes.
