Guidelines for the scoping and environmental assessment of water resources projects. The environment and water resources projects - Volume 2 [PDF]
, 1996 In its role as protector of the water environment, the Environment Agency requires significant water resources abstraction applications and schemes such as drought orders, drought permits, time limited licences, and river transfers to be environmentally

Restoring macrophyte diversity in shallow temperate lakes: biotic versus abiotic constraints
Hydrobiologia, 2013 Although many lake restoration projects have led to decreased nutrient loads and increased water transparency, the establishment or expansion of macrophytes does not immediately follow the improved abiotic conditions and it is often unclear whether ...

Functional Traits for Carbon Access in Macrophytes
PLOS ONE, 2016 Understanding functional trait distributions among organisms can inform impacts on and responses to environmental change. In marine systems, only 1% of dissolved inorganic carbon in seawater exists as CO2. Thus the majority of marine macrophytes not only passively access CO2 for photosynthesis, but also actively transport CO2 and the more common ...

Agricultural pond restoration enhances species richness in non‐biting midges (Diptera: Chironomidae)
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Agricultural ponds are biodiversity hotspots, especially when restored to open‐canopy conditions. Studies comparing pre‐ and post‐restoration pond diversity are rare, however, and have widely focused on “easy‐to‐identify” taxa. Chironomids have so far been neglected in pond restoration studies, but are a highly speciose group critical to aquatic ...

Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2015 Few studies have investigated the colonization of macroinvertebrates during macrophyte decomposition. The goal of this work was to study the colonization process of Chironomidae larvae during the decomposition of Eichhornia azurea in a lake in the ...

Seasonal dynamics of an aquatic macroinvertebrate assembly (Hydrobiological case study of Lake Balaton No. 2) [PDF]
, 2007 In 2002, 2003 and 2004, we took macoinvertebrate samples on a total of 36 occasions at the Badacsony bay of Lake Balaton. Our sampling site was characterised by areas of open water (in 2003 and 2004 full of reed-grass) as well as by areas covered by ...

PLoS ONE, 2013 The impact of ocean acidification on benthic habitats is a major preoccupation of the scientific community. However, the natural variability of pCO2 and pH in those habitats remains understudied, especially in temperate areas.

Functions of Macrophytes in Constructed Wetlands
Water Science and Technology, 1994 Macrophytes have several intrinsic properties that makes them an indispensable component of constructed wetlands. The most important functions of the macrophytes in relation to the treatment of wastewater are the physical effects brought about by the presence of the plants.

Freshwater restoration effects on biodiversity and ecosystem services: a Delphi survey
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Freshwater ecosystem restoration is vital for halting biodiversity loss, enhancing resilience, and securing ecosystem services amid climate and land use change. With major initiatives like the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration and the European Union's Nature Restoration Regulation gaining momentum, identifying ...
