Impacts of Land Use and Water Quality on Macroinvertebrate Diversity Under Human Disturbance in the Lake Chaohu Basin, China. [PDF]
Ecol EvolOur study revealed that human activities drive changes in macroinvertebrate diversity through the combined effects of land use and water quality. The results showed that sensitive taxa (Semisulcospira cancelata) dominated in low disturbance areas, Bellamya (Bellamya aeruginosa) and Alocinma (Alocinma longicornis) were predominant in moderate ...

Common Food Sources for Macrobenthic Communities in Different Bottom Covers: Submerged Macrophytes and Benthic Cyanobacteria in a Japanese Temperate Lake. [PDF]
Ecol EvolA variety of macrobenthic invertebrates were found in the benthic cyanobacterial and the macrophyte zones in the southern basin of Lake Biwa. Their compositions were clearly different between the zones, but relied on common food sources. ABSTRACT Macrobenthic communities in a lake are affected by the type of bottom cover such as macrophytes or algae ...

From subsidies to stressors: Positively skewed ecological gradients alter biological responses to nutrients in streams. [PDF]
Ecol ApplAbstract Subsidy–stress gradients offer a useful framework for understanding ecological responses to perturbation and may help inform ecological metrics in highly modified systems. Historic, region‐wide shifts from bottomland hardwood forest to row crop agriculture can cause positively skewed impact gradients in alluvial plain ecoregions, resulting in ...

Influence of environmental variables on macroinvertebrate community structure in Lianhuan Lake. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 Abstract The structural characteristics of the macroinvertebrate community can effectively reflect the health status of lake ecosystems and the quality of the lake ecological environment. It is therefore important to identify the limiting factors of macroinvertebrate community structure for the maintenance of lake ecosystem health.

Responses of Macroinvertebrate Communities to Heterogeneity Among Typical Reaches in the Upper Yangtze River. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study examines how hydraulic and geomorphological heterogeneity shape benthic macroinvertebrate communities in the mountainous upper Yangtze River. Integrating field measurements with hydrodynamic modeling, it identifies distinct community patterns across canyon, anabranching, and Reef–Tuo reaches, driven by flow velocity, sediment dynamics, and ...

Major contribution of sulfide‐derived sulfur to the benthic food web in a large freshwater lake
Geobiology, Volume 21, Issue 5, Page 671-685, September 2023., 2023 Abstract In freshwater systems, contributions of chemosynthetic products by sulfur‐oxidizing bacteria in sediments as nutritional resources in benthic food webs remain unclear, even though chemosynthetic products might be an important nutritional resource for benthic food webs in deep‐sea hydrothermal vents and shallow marine systems.

Integrative biology of injury in animals
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 1, Page 34-62, February 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Mechanical injury is a prevalent challenge in the lives of animals with myriad potential consequences for organisms, including reduced fitness and death. Research on animal injury has focused on many aspects, including the frequency and severity of wounding in wild populations, the short‐ and long‐term consequences of injury at different ...

A global review of problematic and pathogenic parasites of farmed tilapia
Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 15, Issue S1, Page 92-153, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Over the past 80 years, tilapia have been translocated globally for aquaculture; active production is recorded in >124 countries. Of 7 million tonnes of tilapia produced in aquaculture, 79% is from 79 countries outside the natural range of tilapia.
