Ontogenetic shifts in terrestrial reliance of stream-dwelling brown trout

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2016
This study focuses on terrestrial reliance of brown trout (Salmo trutta) and compared it to the potential prey available (macrozoobenthos and drifting invertebrates) in three temperate rivers (Galicia, NW Spain), with special emphasis on variations in ...

Impacts of Warming on Reciprocal Subsidies Between Aquatic and Terrestrial Ecosystems

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Cross-ecosystem subsidies are important as their recipients often rely on them to supplement in situ resource availability. Global warming has the potential to alter the quality and quantity of these subsidies, but our knowledge of these effects is ...

Impact of particulate pollution on aquatic invertebrates

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2023
A serious global problem, air pollution poses a risk to both human and environmental health. It contains hazardous material like heavy metals, nanoparticles, and others that can create an impact on both land and marine environments. Particulate pollutants, which can enter water systems through a variety of ways, including precipitation and industrial ...

Terrestrial–aquatic linkages in spring-fed and snowmelt-dominated streams

open access: yesJournal of Freshwater Ecology, 2017
The importance of trophic linkages between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems is predicted to vary as a function of subsidy quantity and quality relative to in situ resources. To test this prediction, I used multi-year diet data from Bonneville cutthroat

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

open access: yes, 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 ...
