ABSTRACT Aim Tardigrades, commonly known as some of the toughest organisms on Earth, like many other microscopic invertebrates, are often overlooked in biodiversity monitoring. Our study aimed to elucidate the impact of environmental disturbance caused by anthropogenic activity on tardigrade diversity and distributions.

Comparative Proteomics of Salinity Stress Responses in Fish and Aquatic Invertebrates
ABSTRACT Fluctuating salinity is symptomatic of climate change challenging aquatic species. The melting of polar ice, rising sea levels, coastal surface and groundwater salinization, and increased evaporation in arid habitats alter salinity worldwide. Moreover, the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events such as rainstorms and floods increase,

Bioindication as challenge in Modern Environmental Protection
Research into and diagnosis of environmental change prior to the introduction of bioindicator methods were linked primarily to apparatus. Drawing attention to the reactions of organisms sensitive to that change and using them in environmental quality ...

Industrial revolution, intensive agriculture and growing human population are causing extensive exploitation of natural ecosystem which leads to advanced destruction process of land ecosystem. As ecosystem more complex and their biological communities, it is not easy to directly assess the health of natural environments.

Abstract Ecological community data are used to infer levels of environmental stressors; for example, epiphytic lichen communities can be used to estimate levels of air pollutants. If stressors are so severe that the community of interest disappears altogether, then “empty” plots are recorded.

The voice of the little giants: Arcellinida testate amoebae in environmental DNA-based bioindication, from taxonomy free to haplotypic level [PDF]
Bioindication, evaluating biological responses to environmental disturbances, is crucial for assessing the ecological status of an ecosystem. While historical bioindication relied on macroscopic organisms, the introduction of environmental DNA (eDNA ...

Bioindication using Fish and its Role in an Integrated Assessment of the Condition of Coastal Ecosystems: a Review [PDF]
Coastal ecosystems located near cities, industrial and agricultural facilities are under significant anthropogenic influence. The complexity of modern anthropogenic impact on coastal ecosystems does not always make it possible to determine the ...

The collapse of the Fundão dam caused long‐term alterations in the microbiome of lakes in the Doce River basin, with microbial communities closely associated with heavy metals originating from the mining tailings. The findings also highlight potential microbial groups for biomonitoring and bioremediation efforts.
