Journal of Limnology, 2022 Littoral macroinvertebrates in acidified waterbodies are affected by the interaction of acidification and local environmental conditions. Understanding the interplay of these factors in the structuring of communities is essential for interpreting ...

First contingent valuation of Lake Ohrid biodiversity [PDF]
Micro, Macro & Mezzo Geoinformation, 2016 This study is first of its kind for the region in question. It focuses on contingent valuation method evaluation of the biodiversity of Lake Ohrid. The most spectacular quality of this ecosystem is the high biodiversity and extremely high degree of ...

Beta diversity of macroinvertebrate assemblages associated with aquatic macrophytes in shallow lakes within a tropical floodplain-dammed river [PDF]
Acta Limnologica Brasiliensia: Aims We assessed the beta diversity of macroinvertebrates associated with aquatic macrophytes in a dam-regulated river floodplain. We tested two hypotheses: (1) macroinvertebrates associated with aquatic macrophytes have higher beta diversity (higher ...

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, 2020 We examined the influence of point and nonpoint source contamination on microplastic (MP) levels in water, macroinvertebrates, and trout in a small, cold‐water stream in western Wisconsin, U.S.A.

Ecography, EarlyView.Understanding how deterministic and stochastic processes influence the shape of microorganism community assembly across different spatial scales is essential for disentangling biodiversity patterns. Mires are nutrient‐poor and heterogeneous wetlands that form isolated habitats supporting highly diverse diatom assemblages, particularly in mountainous ...

Microplastic ingestion by riverine macroinvertebrates
Science of The Total Environment, 2019 Although microplastics are a recognised pollutant in marine environments, less attention has been directed towards freshwater ecosystems despite their greater proximity to possible plastic sources. Here, we quantify the presence of microplastic particles (MPs) in river organisms upstream and downstream of five UK Wastewater Treatment Works (WwTWs). MPs

Ecography, EarlyView.Harmful Microcystis proliferation severely threatens aquatic ecosystems globally, but its impacts on food‐web stability remain poorly understood. Here, we analyzed 1309 metagenomic samples from freshwater ecosystems across China to investigate how Microcystis abundance affects synchrony among taxa in multi‐trophic food webs (from bacteriophages to ...
