Habitat Structure Shapes Mollusc Assemblages in an Urban Semiarid River: Implications for Conservation and Public Health

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Fine‐scale environmental drivers shape freshwater mollusc assemblages in urban semiarid rivers. We examined how substrate composition and water chemistry influence mollusc richness and abundance along a polluted stretch of a river in the Brazilian semiarid region. Surveys at five sites recorded 2479 individuals.

Rooted macrophytes reduce sediment CH4 storage and net production: An experimental approach using a novel scanning method

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Methane (CH4) emissions from freshwater ecosystems are significant but rarely quantified in vegetated zones. We assessed the influence of five macrophyte species that root in the sediment differing in growth form and root biomass on CH4 emissions and sediment gas storage.

Eichhornia crassipes: An advantageous source of shikimic acid

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Farmacognosia, 2014
AbstractThe water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms, Pontederiaceae) is considered as one of the most productive plants on earth, and an aquatic weed, which causes serious environmental problems. In this study, this species is presented as an alternative of a renewable source of shikimic acid.

Yield of Short Duration Drought Tolerant Transplant Aman Rice Varieties as Influenced by Integrated Nitrogen and Weed Management Practices

open access: yesAdvances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Rice productivity varies substantially across rice varieties along with judicious nitrogenous fertilizer and weed management (WM) practices. At AFL, Bangladesh Agricultural University, we tested two cultivars of short‐duration drought‐tolerant T. aman (autumn) rice, Bangladesh Rice Research Institute (BRRI) dhan66 and BRRI dhan71, and how different ...

Performance of Concrete Using Water Hyacinth Ash as a Partial Cement Substitute

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Concrete is one of the most widely used construction materials, with cement as its primary component. However, cement production significantly contributes to CO2 emissions, posing environmental challenges. This study investigates the use of water hyacinth ash (WHA) as a sustainable partial replacement for cement in C‐30 grade concrete.
