Pesticide-Free Rice Paddies Promote Diverse and Distinct Aquatic Invertebrate Communities in Cool-Temperate Agroecosystems. [PDF]
Ecol EvolFreshwater wetlands are disappearing across agricultural landscapes, prompting interest in pesticide‐free rice paddies as multifunctional habitats. Across 2 years, rice paddies supported higher local macroinvertebrate density and richness than nearby natural wetlands, although wetlands maintained greater regional diversity and more heterogeneous ...

Biological traits of European pond macroinvertebrates [PDF]
, 2011 Whilst biological traits of river macroinvertebrates show unimodal responses to geographic changes in habitat conditions in Europe, we still do not know whether spatial turnover of species result in distinct combinations of biological traits for pond ...

A new substrate for sampling deep river macroinvertebrates [PDF]
, 2009 We compared macroinvertebrate communities colonising multiplate samplers constructed from perspex or tempered hardboard (wood) with an alternative artificial substrate constructed from folded coconut fibre matting (coir) enclosed in nylon netting ...

Detection of estuarine benthic macroinvertebrates communities using artificial neural network
, 2023 Aquatic ecosystems depend heavily on benthic macroinvertebrates for their essential functions. They have become an indispensable part of pure water bio monitoring due to the widespread recognition of their capacity to recognize many kinds of ...

Diet of benthivorous fish and prey availability in streams of the Pirapó River basin-PR
Acta Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2019 Aim This study aimed to investigate the diet of seven species of fish that consume predominantly benthic macroinvertebrates, and the availability of these organisms in the environment. We analyzed the occurrence of trophic segregation between species and

Rapid Assessment of Intertidal Wetland Sediments [PDF]
, 2012 Urbanization of coastal areas poses a severe threat to ecologically valuable intertidal wetlands. This paper presents a pragmatic approach called Rapid Assessment for Intertidal Wetland Sediments (RAITWS) for evaluating the sediment quality of intertidal
