Aquatic Ecosystem and Biodiversity: A Review

Open Journal of Ecology, 2019
Aquatic ecosystems support a substantial source of the earth’s biological diversity. They are an essential reservoir and share an enormous proportion of earth’s biological productivity. Both aquatic resources and its biodiversity are interrelated to each other and they perform a myriad of functions and are valuable and essential for the sustainability ...

Urban ponds as an aquatic biodiversity resource in modified landscapes [PDF]

Global Change Biology, 2016
AbstractUrbanization is a global process contributing to the loss and fragmentation of natural habitats. Many studies have focused on the biological response of terrestrial taxa and habitats to urbanization. However, little is known regarding the consequences of urbanization on freshwater habitats, especially small lentic systems.

Global impacts of nitrogen and phosphorus fertiliser use for major crops on aquatic biodiversity

The International Journal of Life Cycle Assessment, 2022
The intensive application of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilisers on agricultural land to fertilise crops has caused eutrophication, the nutrient enrichment of waterbodies leading to excessive growth of algae, deoxygenation and loss of aquatic ...
