The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

Diet of bird‐like troodontid dinosaurs: synthesis of a contentious clade

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Troodontidae is a clade of small‐to medium‐sized maniraptoran theropods that mainly lived in Laurasia (modern Asia, North America and Europe) during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods and are believed to have had a variety of diets. The uniqueness of troodontid teeth suggests that they diverged from the typical flesh‐based diet of non‐avian ...

Beaver herbivory on aquatic plants

Oecologia, 2006
Herbivores have strong impacts on marine and terrestrial plant communities, but their impact is less well studied in benthic freshwater systems. For example, North American beavers (Castor canadensis) eat both woody and non-woody plants and focus almost exclusively on the latter in summer months, yet their impacts on non-woody plants are generally ...

Phosphorus and aquatic plants

2008
Aquatic systems receive the bulk of their nutrient supply from stream inflow. In stream communities, and also in lakes with a stream outflow, the export of nutrients in outgoing stream water is a major factor in nutrient budgets of aquatic communities.

Phosphorus in primary aquatic plants

Water Research, 1973
Abstract As with other organisms, phosphorus is an essential element for aquatic plants. It is a component of molecules such as the nucleic acids and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) involved in the vital processes of enzyme synthesis and energy transfer and its compounds play a basic role in the mechanisms of photosynthesis by which these plants act as ...

Effect of antibiotics on diverse aquatic plants in aquatic ecosystems

Aquatic Toxicology
The widespread presence of antibiotics in aquatic ecosystems, mainly due to their use in medicine and veterinary practices, poses a significant environmental challenge. Aquatic plants play a vital role in maintaining ecosystem stability, but their responses to antibiotics vary by species, influenced by differences in their traits and interactions with ...

Macrophytes : ecology of aquatic plants.

2009
Aquatic plants contribute to maintaining key functions and related biodiversity in freshwater ecosystems, and to provide the needs of human societies. The way the ecological niches of macrophytes are determined by abiotic filters and biotic ones is considered.
