Farming practice affects rice field animal biota during cultivation but not fallow periods in Taiwan

Ecosphere, 2022
Rice is one of the most important staple foods in the world, with irrigated rice paddies largely converted from natural wetlands. The effectiveness of rice fields in preserving species depends partially on management practices, including the usage of ...

Comparison of taxonomic and size-based approaches to determine the effects of environment and disturbance on invertebrate communities in coastal Chile

Ecological Indicators, 2022
The frequency and intensity of extreme events in coastal wetlands is increasing due to climate change. These, in combination with other threats such as habitat loss, can have strong effects on the biodiversity and ecosystem services of coastal wetland ...

Environmental fate of the anti-parasitic ivermectin in an aquatic micro-ecological system after a single oral administration [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
Background Ivermectin (IVM) has been widely used in the aquaculture industry since its efficacy against parasites. However, the degradation of IVM was very slow in aquatic environments and the environmental fate of IVM in a complete aquatic system was ...

Fast but transient recovery of aquatic and terrestrial communities after a large dam removal

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
IntroductionEcological restoration through dam removals receives increasing attention from scientists, environmental managers and policy makers. However, most dam removal projects focus on small structures (< 10 m in height) and on few ecosystem ...

Omics‐based molecular analyses of adhesion by aquatic invertebrates

Biological Reviews of The Cambridge Philosophical Society, 2021
Many aquatic invertebrates are associated with surfaces, using adhesives to attach to the substratum for locomotion, prey capture, reproduction, building or defence.

Stem cells of aquatic invertebrates as an advanced tool for assessing ecotoxicological impacts.

Science of the Total Environment, 2021
Environmental stressors are assessed through methods that quantify their impacts on a wide range of metrics including species density, growth rates, reproduction, behaviour and physiology, as on host-pathogen interactions and immunocompetence ...

Insecticide Effects on Normal Development and Hatch of Embryos of \u3ci\u3eParatanytarsus Parthenogeneticus\u3c/i\u3e (Diptera: Chironomidae) [PDF]

, 2017
Simple, low cost methods are needed to determine the effect of pesticides on non-target aquatic organisms. In this report, embryos of Paratanytarsus parthenogenetic us were exposed from deposition to hatch to five pesticides.

Toxicological impacts of synthetic pyrethroids on non-target aquatic organisms: A review

Environmental Advances, 2023
Synthetic pyrethroid (SP) insecticides are used extensively around the world in both agricultural and non-agricultural applications. Their toxicity to mammals is low, however, they have a high toxicity to invertebrates, fish and amphibians, including ...

Ameliorating Effect of Chloride on Nitrite Toxicity to Freshwater Invertebrates with Different Physiology: a Comparative Study Between Amphipods and Planarians [PDF]

, 2008
High nitrite concentrations in freshwater ecosystems may cause toxicity to aquatic animals. These living organisms can take nitrite up from water through their chloride cells, subsequently suffering oxidation of their respiratory pigments (hemoglobin ...
