Evaluating synthetic substitutes to reduce illegal harvesting and support species recovery

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Providing synthetic substitutes is a widely promoted strategy to shift consumer demand away from wildlife products derived from threatened species. Yet, there is little evidence on whether product substitution prevents illegal or unsustainable harvesting and contributes to the recovery of threatened populations.

Constructed Wetlands

2015
Constructed Wetlands are an alternative, promising technology for water/wastewater treatment and pollution mitigation. They belong to the wider category of natural treatment systems. The main principle is to exploit natural materials (gravel, sand, plants) and naturally occurring processes under controlled conditions for treatment purposes. Constructed

Dry Wetlands: Nutrient Dynamics in Ephemeral Constructed Stormwater Wetlands

Environmental Management, 2019
Constructed stormwater wetlands (CSWs) are used to address contaminants in urban stormwater such as nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), but their performance is variable. Ephemeral CSWs tend to be less effective than perennial CSWs at removing N and P. We asked: How does wetland vegetation and sediment affect nutrient cycling/release from sediment and ...

Phytoremediation in Constructed Wetlands

2015
Contamination of water by toxic pollutants through the discharge of municipal, domestic, hospital, and industrial wastewater has become a worldwide environmental problem due to its serious consequences on human health, agricultural crop productivity, and aquatic ecosystems. Phytoremediation using constructed wetlands (CWs) has become a logical solution

Modeling of Constructed Wetland Performance

2006
This chapter presents a case study to examine the utility of applying K-nearest neighbors (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), and self-organizing map (SOM) to predict the outflow water quality of experimental constructed treatment wetlands by comparing the accuracy of these models.

Constructed Wetlands in Croatia - Project of Staro Petrovo Selo Constructe Wetland

2013
Constructed wetlands present alternative technological solution for wastewater treatment, applicable for smaller rural areas, as well as for industrial wastewater treatment. Low construction, operation and maintenance costs with simple operation and high treatment efficiency rank them among the more popular solutions of wastewater treatment worldwide ...

Phytoremediation by Constructed Wetlands

1999
Constructed wetlands offer an unlimited potential for the phytoremediation of toxins and pollutants. Their unique advantage is complete low-cost treatment of large volumes of water. High capacity makes wetlands very different from terrestrial phytoremediation or conventional physical-chemical methods that deal with relatively small volumes of ...
