Dive surveys and eDNA detect contrasting macroalgal community composition in Nova Scotia, Canada

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Morphological identification of macroalgae can be time‐consuming and species may be difficult to observe, collect, or identify, preventing detailed study on the distribution and ecology of many species. The use of eDNA in species surveillance and biodiversity assessments has gained considerable traction in studying macroalgae, as it provides ...

Investigating the efficacy of tidal wetland restoration in enhancing aquatic food web resources for native fishes

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Endangered fish species, such as Delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus), in the San Francisco Estuary are threatened by a multitude of anthropogenic stressors. Tidal wetland restoration can partially mitigate these stressors by increasing food availability of aquatic invertebrate prey, but the efficacy of restoration remains ...

Kelp‐boulder transplants for habitat restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Degraded habitats present a major barrier to the survival and recovery of threatened marine species, particularly where structural or biogenic complexity has been lost, and natural regeneration ability is uncertain. Despite growing interest in habitat restoration, techniques rarely deliver rapid improvements at the necessary ...

Freshwater Biodiversity Research in Brazil: Trends from a Systematic Review and Topic Modeling

International Review of Hydrobiology, Volume 111, Issue 2, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Brazil is a megadiverse country that hosts six major biomes and a vast freshwater network. Despite this richness, research on freshwater biodiversity has been heterogeneous across regions, communities, and time, leaving significant knowledge gaps.

Evaluation of some physicochemical parameters and benthic macroinvertebrates of Ikere Gorge Reservoir in Oyo State, Nigeria

Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2017
The physico-chemical parameters and benthic macroinvertebrates of Ikere Gorge Reservoir were studied to assess the impact of anthropogenic activities on this man-made lake by collecting surface water and benthic samples. Physico-chemical parameters were

Benthic macroinvertebrates in the Paranapanema reservoir cascade (southeast Brazil) [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2008
In this study, the composition, specific richness and abundance of benthic macroinvertebrates (<250 µm) from sediments of eight reservoirs of the Paranapanema River (southeast Brazil), as well as from the main tributaries (Taquari, Pardo and Tibagi) and the mouth zone into the Paraná River were analyzed. Nineteen points distributed along 700 km were

Habitat Preferences and Distribution of Ephemera orientalis (Ephemeroptera: Ephemeridae) in the Hangang River, South Korea

Entomological Research, Volume 56, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT This study characterized the spatial distribution patterns and habitat preference of Ephemera orientalis larvae in the Hangang River based on four surveys conducted in April, June, August, and October 2024. Field surveys were conducted at 10 sites along a 24 km reach, with five cross‐sectional sampling points per site.
