Benthic Macroinvertebrate Susceptibility to Trout Farm Effluents [PDF]

Water Environment Research, 2009
The direct effects of a Virginia trout farm on benthic macroinvertebrates were examined using multiple approaches. Static laboratory tests with the amphipod, Hyallela azteca, were conducted with exposures to water taken from a spring and from effluent both above and below a sedimentation basin.

Efficient sampling methodologies for lake littoral invertebrates in compliance with the European Water Framework Directive [PDF]

, 2015
Lake shores are characterised by a high natural variability, which is increasingly threatened by a multitude of anthropogenic disturbances including morphological alterations to the littoral zone. The European Water Framework Directive (EU WFD) calls for

Biomonitoring of lake sediments using benthic macroinvertebrates [PDF]

TrAC Trends in Analytical Chemistry, 2012
The Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) is an innovative piece of legislation aimed at protecting the quality of all continental and coastal waters in Europe through an ecological evaluation of the ecosystems. Since it is widely acknowledged that the greater the ecological realism the greater the difficulty of its definition, we describe the ...

Benthic macroinvertebrate community and chlorophyll a (chl-a) concentration in sediment of three polluted sites in the Lagos Lagoon, Nigeria

Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2017
This paper reports the benthic macroinvertebrate community and chlorophyll a (chl-a) concentration in sediment of three polluted sites in the Lagos Lagoon, Nigeria. Values observed for DO ranged between 3.0 and 4.5 mg/L, while transparency varied from 3

Organisation of the benthic macroinvertebrate assemblage in tropical streams of different orders in North-Eastern Brazil

Ecología Austral, 2018
We selected streams located in north-eastern Brazil with the objective of assessing the effect of streams of different orders (1st, 2nd, 3rd) on the distribution and composition of benthic macroinvertebrates in the rainy and dry seasons.

Low flow controls on benthic and hyporheic macroinvertebrate assemblages during supra-seasonal drought [PDF]

, 2009
Despite the widely accepted importance of the hyporheic zone as a habitat for stream macroinvertebrates during floods, few data exist regarding community composition and distribution during periods of low flow or drought in perennial streamsi ...

Relationship between salt use in fish farms and drift of macroinvertebrates in a freshwater stream

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2020
In Chile, salt (NaCl) use per salmon fish farm ranges between 20-30 t yr-1 and is used to prevent and control fungal infections. An increase in salinity in freshwater can have adverse effects on freshwater biodiversity and ecosystem functions and ...
