Trees as Bioindicators of Environmental Pollution and Its Impact on Wood Chemical Composition
Trees provide one of the most versatile biomass resources for many applications, namely wood. The chemical composition of wood determines its properties, being of real significance for its further capitalization, and depending on many factors. In nature,

The health of an ecosystem can be examined through the use of bioindicators (BI), while the health of a human being can be determined using some molecules such as biomarkers (BM). BI are complete organisms or part of them that can be measured to detect changes in the environment, the presence of pollution and its effect on the ecosystem, as well as the

Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

Genetic markers as a tool for bioindication in forest ecosystems.
Bioindication measures the response of individuals and populations to stress with main emphasis on anthropogenically induced change of environment. Forest ecosystems reveal a high indicative potential for the verification of long-term environmental ...

Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline
Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...

Abstract Hydropeaking is considered an important stressor for salmonids and other species in rivers affected by hydropower. In this study, we investigated the in situ effects of hydropeaking on the survival of eggs and larvae of fall spawning brown trout as well as spring spawning Danube salmon.
