ABSTRACT Macrophytes are vulnerable to various factors in their natural ecosystems, including climatic, ecological, and anthropogenic changes. This study aims to document how these factors influence floristic composition. Four sites were investigated in the Boeny Region of northwest Madagascar: Ambatoboeny, Marovoay, Ankarafantsika National Park, and ...

Aquatic macrophytes of Angola: a preliminary verified checklist
Aquatic macrophytes are photosynthetic macroscopic organisms that grow permanently or periodically submerged or floating on the surface of the water. The aim of this study is to compile a checklist of fresh-water aquatic vascular plant macrophytes occurring in Angola, focusing on their origins, life forms, conservation status and distribution ...

ABSTRACT Relieving barriers and increasing free flowing rivers is a global imperative to restore habitat connectivity for migratory fish stocks. While reducing river fragmentation will certainly improve biodiversity, the spread of non‐native species throughout a river system may be facilitated as an inadvertent outcome.

The Influence of Macrophytes on Aquatic Microclimate
How terrestrial vegetation influences microclimate and what effects this has on associated ecosystems is well studied, but it is less known if and how aquatic macrophytes affect their microclimate. In this study I therefore aim to investigate the question of how aquatic macrophytes influence their microclimate, and how these effects in turn may affect ...

Abstract The Yamuna River, one of India's most significant river systems and the largest tributary of the Ganges River, serves critical ecological, socio‐economic, and cultural functions. However, rapid urbanization, industrialization, and intensive agriculture have severely degraded its water quality, resulting in extensive pollution with untreated ...

Seasonal monitoring of two Himalayan Ramsar wetlands revealed significant fluctuations in physicochemical parameters and low bacterial diversity across seasons. Elevated dissolved oxygen at Renuka Ji, turbidity and dissolved oxygen at Asan Conservation Reserve levels highlight ecological sensitivity and the need for continuous monitoring and ...

ABSTRACT Aim Species associations are increasingly recognized as an effective way to improve species distribution model (SDM) predictions by integrating biotic and abiotic information that is difficult to measure in situ. This approach appears promising for monitoring communities where biodiversity and environmental data are sparse or limited.
