Benthic Macroinvertebrate Susceptibility to Trout Farm Effluents [PDF]

open access: yesWater 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.

Biomonitoring of lake sediments using benthic macroinvertebrates [PDF]

open access: yesTrAC 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 ...
