The IPCC (2021) reported that global air temperature has increased by 1.09℃ from the period 1850-1900 to 2011-2020 along with increasing precipitation. Similar increases in air temperature and precipitation have been observed in Japan. Earlier studies on the effects of global warming on inland waters have focused on the thermal effects on physical and chemical processes as well as organisms, and little attention has been given to the thermal effects on ecosystems. Recently, increasing concerns have been raised regarding the effects of global warming and associated heavy rain on inland water ecosystems. In this special issue, seven articles are presented from scientific researches on the impacts of heavy rain induced flooding on the Ozegahara mire ecosystem performed at the 4 th Scientific Research of Ozegahra Mire (2017-2019). I hope that the present seven articles contribute to a deeper understanding of the ecosystem processes in Ozegahara mire under the impacts of flooding.
