Evidence on Night Movements of Macroinvertebrates to Macrophytes in a Pampean Stream [PDF]
, 2014 Nocturnal invertebrate abundance peaks in lotic systems are usually associated to drift, however, diel migrations other than drift may be important in slow-flowing systems.

Oligochaeta (Annelida: Clitellata) associated to aquatic macrophytes in Brazil
Biotemas, 2016 Oligochaeta are still characterized as a poorly studied group among the aquatic macroinvertebrates and few studies about their ecology were conducted in Brazil.

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

Biomechanical tactics of chiral growth in emergent aquatic macrophytes. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2015 Through natural selection, many plant organs have evolved optimal morphologies at different length scales. However, the biomechanical strategies for different plant species to optimize their organ structures remain unclear.
