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 ...

Role of macrophyte life forms in driving periphytic microalgal assemblages in a Brazilian reservoir

Journal of Limnology, 2015
Macrophytes play several roles in aquatic ecosystems, including the provision of habitat for many aquatic organisms, especially the periphyton. The aims of this study were to characterize the structure of periphytic microalgal assemblages on different ...

Invasive crayfish threaten the development of submerged macrophytes in lake restoration. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Submerged macrophytes enhance water transparency and aquatic biodiversity in shallow water ecosystems. Therefore, the return of submerged macrophytes is the target of many lake restoration projects.

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

Data for: "Alum treatments improve water quality and increase native macrophyte occurrence, but invasive macrophyte responses are mixed"

, 2023
This repository contains the data and R code used in the analysis for Hembre, K.M., R.M. Newman, A.W. Bajcz. 2026. Alum treatments improve water quality and increase native macrophyte occurrence but invasive macrophyte responses are mixed.

Harnessing the potential of the multi-indicator palaeoecological approach: an assessment of the nature and causes of ecological change in a eutrophic shallow lake [PDF]

, 2015
SUMMARY 1. Multi-indicator palaeoecological studies have become increasingly popular over the last decade as the need for a more complete understanding of lake ecological histories has increased.

Consumption of submerged aquatic macrophytes by rudd (scardinius erythrophthalmus L.) in New Zealand

, 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.

Macrophyte Coverage Increases Largemouth Bass Abundance and Trophy Potential: A Resist‐Accept‐Direct (RAD) Application for Aquatic Plant Management in North‐Temperate Lakes

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries
Climate change is altering north‐temperate lake ecosystems through warming and increased aquatic macrophyte production. These changes have the potential to cause ecosystem shifts that challenge status quo fisheries management and require the adoption of ...
