Sub‐annual spatiotemporal dynamics of sediment and organic matter storage in beaver ponds
Ponds higher up the beaver cascades showed increasing erosion of sediments following heavier rainfall events, whereas those further down showed increasing sediment accretion. Following periods with less intense rainfall all ponds showed net sediment accretion.

Dual application of duckweed and azolla plants for wastewater treatment and renewable fuels and petrochemicals production [PDF]
Shortages in fresh water supplies today affects more than 1 billion people worldwide. Phytoremediation strategies, based on the abilities of aquatic plants to recycle nutrients offer an attractive solution for the bioremediation of water pollution and ...

A Comparative Analysis of Long‐Term Effective Population Sizes Across Eukaryotes
ABSTRACT The effective population size (Ne) is a fundamental parameter in population genetics. Despite its central importance, there are relatively few estimates of Ne available and there have been limited attempts to compare values across eukaryotes. Here, we estimate long‐term effective population sizes for 120 species, broadly distributed across the

Biochemical alterations in duckweed and algae induced by carrier solvents: Selection of an appropriate solvent in toxicity testing [PDF]
Carrier solvents are often used in aquatic toxicity testing for test chemicals with hydrophobic properties. However, the knowledge of solvent effects on test organisms remains limited. This study aimed to understand biochemical effects of the four common

Control of euglenophyte bloom and fish production enhancement using duckweed and lime [PDF]
Euglenophyte bloom is a common problem in most of the aquaculture ponds in Bangladesh. In the present study we conducted an experiment to control euglenophyte bloom for achieving better fish production using duckweed (Lemna minor) and lime.

Nutrient recovery from digestates : techniques and end-products [PDF]
In nitrate vulnerable zones application of animal manure to land is limited. Digestate from anaerobic digestion plants competes with manure for nutrient disposal on arable land, which forms a serious hinder for the biogas sector to develop in these ...

Growth and reproduction of Moina rectirostris (Leydig) and Ceriodaphnia quadrangula (O. F. Muller) with feeding on detritus. [Translation from: Sbornik po prudovomu rybovodstvu, 79-89. Moscow, VNIRO, 1969.] [PDF]
The significance of detritus in the nutrition of aquatic animals, especially of the small representatives of the zooplankton, has been studied very slightly. Research so far has established that in M.
