Influence of limnological variables on aquatic macrophytes in the Belo Monte reservoir, Amazon, Brazil [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de CiênciasThe demand for electricity grows with human expansion. Hydroelectric plants harness river energy but impact freshwater ecosystems. Reservoirs alter water flow, sediment, and local aquatic communities.

Risk management of European inland waters using macrophyte biomonitoring
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2014 Inland waters are extremely sensitive to inputs of contaminants. Increasing human activities lead to a rise in organic and inorganic pollutants leading to acidification or eutrophication problems. Many aquatic organisms are affected by these contaminants

Consumption of submerged aquatic macrophytes by rudd (scardinius erythrophthalmus L.) in New Zealand [PDF]
, 2002 In experiments in New Zealand, rudd (Scardinius erythrophthalmus L.) of 108–277mm fork length (FL) ate a wide range of native and introduced submerged aquatic macrophytes in captivity and in the field.

Predicting species cover of marine macrophyte and invertebrate species combining hyperspectral remote sensing, machine learning and regression techniques. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 In order to understand biotic patterns and their changes in nature there is an obvious need for high-quality seamless measurements of such patterns. If remote sensing methods have been applied with reasonable success in terrestrial environment, their use

Can we predict community-wide effects of herbicides from toxicity tests on macrophyte species? [PDF]
, 2011 Macrophyte communities play an essential role in the way freshwater ecosystems function. It is thus of great concern to understand how environmental factors, especially anthropogenic ones, influence their composition and diversity.

Arsenic accumulation by edible aquatic macrophytes
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2014 Edible aquatic macrophytes grown in arsenic (As)-contaminated soil and sediment were investigated to determine the extent of As accumulation and potential risk to humans when consumed. Nasturtium officinale (watercress) and Diplazium esculentum (warabi) are two aquatic macrophytes grown and consumed in Hawaii. Neither has been assessed for potential to

Different scales determine the occurrence of aquatic macrophyte species in a tropical stream
Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2021 Distributions of aquatic macrophyte species are commonly associated with water chemistry characteristics. However, other environmental factors that can lead to the occurrence of aquatic plants in lotic ecosystems, such as dynamic habitats linked to the ...
