Ciliates (Alveolata, Ciliophora) as bioindicators of environmental pressure: A karstic river case

, 2021
Ciliates are single celled eukaryotes recognized as key players in the microbial loop of aquatic ecosystems. The present study was carried out on the Krka River (Croatia), a karst freshwater ecosystem characterized by tufa barriers, biomineralization and

Prioritization of fish communities with a view to conservation and restoration on a large scale European basin, the Loire (France) [PDF]

, 2008
The hierarchical organization of important sites for the conservation or the restoration of fish communities is a great challenge for managers, especially because of financial or time constraints.

From the individual to the community and beyond: water quality, stress indicators and key species in coastal waters [PDF]

, 1994
This review examines water quality and stress indicators at levels of organisation from the individual to the community and beyond by means of three case studies concentrating on rocky shores within the north-east Atlantic.

Multimodal Wearable Biosensing Meets Multidomain AI: A Pathway to Decentralized Healthcare

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multimodal biosensing meets multidomain AI. Wearable biosensors capture complementary biochemical and physiological signals, while cross‐device, population‐aware learning aligns noisy, heterogeneous streams. This Review distills key sensing modalities, fusion and calibration strategies, and privacy‐preserving deployment pathways that transform ...

Coenotic structure, skull asymmetries and other morphological anomalies in small mammals near an electronuclear power plant

Hystrix, the Italian Journal of Mammalogy, 1994
<strong>Abstract</strong> A nuclear power plant was in operation in the Garigliano alluvial plain (Central Italy) from 1964 through 1978, a period marked by several accidents. The nuclear site is now utilized for storage of radiactive wastes

Monitoring marine plastics – will we know if we are making a difference?

South African Journal of Science, 2020
In the context of marine anthropogenic debris management, monitoring is essential to assess whether mitigation measures to reduce the amounts of waste plastic entering the environment are being effective.

Does the Ant Functional Group Classification Really Work? A Validation in Two Contrasting Habitats from Central Mexico

Ekológia (Bratislava), 2023
Ants have historically been classified into “functional groups” (FGs) to facilitate their interpretation as bioindicators. A particularly popular classification scheme is the one proposed by Andersen, based on the Australian myrmecofauna.

Trophic Diversity in Duckweed: Mixotrophy, More Than the Sum of its Extremes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In the context of rising DOC in aquatic environments, mixotrophic duckweed may impact carbon cycling by acting as either a carbon sink, as they absorb CO2 through photosynthesis, or a carbon source, as they release CO2 through respiration of absorbed DOC, which depends on DOC concentration, light availability, temperature, and other environmental ...

Nitrogen Deposition Enhances Photosynthesis in Moso Bamboo but Increases Susceptibility to Other Stress Factors

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition can increase the susceptibility of vascular plants to other stresses, but the physiological basis of such a response remains poorly understood.

Determination of heavy metal deposition in the county of Obrenovac (Serbia) using mosses as bioindicators, IV: Manganese (Mn), Molybdenum (Mo), and Nickel (Ni) [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2009
In this study, the deposition of three heavy metals (Mn, Mo, and Ni) in the county of Obrenovac (Serbia) in four moss taxa (Bryum argenteum, Bryum capillare, Brachythecium sp., and Hypnum cupressiforme) is presented.
