Constructed wetland in wastewater treatment = Uso de “wetland” construído para tratamento de resíduos

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2008
Physical and chemical variables of soil and water were measured todetermine the effectiveness of a constructed wetland for wastewater treatment. Eight different macrophyte species, namely Eichhornia crassipes, Alternanthera philoxerodos, Heteranthera ...

Habitat heterogeneity overrides local processes to drive the species–area relationship of benthic macroinvertebrates in shallow floodplain lakes

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2025, Issue 8, August 2025.
The species–area relationship (SAR) on islands describes how the numbers of species increase with increasing island size (or island‐like habitat, such as lakes). Despite its conceptual importance, there is considerable uncertainty surrounding its shape in freshwater lakes, as well as the potential mechanisms that underlie the SAR.

Azolla as a beneficial macrophyte for livestock feed: a review

open access: yesCogent Food & Agriculture
Livestock plays a significant role in the livelihood enhancement of the people, especially in rural areas. The requirement for dietary protein for people from the animal sources is expected to increase. However, due to problems of feed shortages and high

Life in a post‐eelgrass world: Temporal compression of a spatial refuge from predation

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Spatial refugia offered by structurally complex habitats mitigate high rates of predation for many aquatic and terrestrial prey species. These refuges are particularly important for small juvenile marine invertebrates, for which predation often represents the greatest cause of mortality.

Zoocoenological state of microhabitats and its seasonal dynamics in an aquatic macroinvertebrate assembly (Hydrobiological case studies on lake Balaton, No. 1.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In the years 2002, 2003 and 2004 we collected samples of macroinvertebrates on a total of 36 occasions in Badacsony bay, in areas of open water (in the years 2003 and 2004 reed-grassy) as well as populated by reed (Phragmites australis) and cattail ...

Structural complexity of hard substrates shapes shallow marine benthic communities

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2025, Issue 8, August 2025.
Structurally complex habitats offer niche diversity, with varying biotic and abiotic conditions, generally leading to higher biodiversity compared to simpler habitats. However, our understanding of the response of ecological communities to increased complexity and the underlying drivers remain ambiguous due to discrepancies in how complexity is ...
