Effects of Invasive Watermilfoil on Primary Production in Littoral Zones of North-Temperate Lakes

open access: yesDiversity, 2020
Species invasions are changing aquatic ecosystems worldwide. Submerged aquatic macrophytes control lake ecosystem processes through their direct and indirect interactions with other primary producers, but how these interactions may be altered by ...

Macrophytes as bioindicators [PDF]

open access: yesRiver Systems, 2003
Submerged macrophytes respond to changes in the nutrient concentrations in their environment. In contrast to diatoms e.g., submerged macrophytes are capable of taking up nutrients from both the sediment pore water and the overlying water. Therefore, macrophytes can provide a more comprehensive assessment of river ecosystems. Two methods using submerged

Utilization of fish gut analysis to elucidation of microcrustacean

open access: yesJournal of Ecology and Environment, 2014
Structural heterogeneity results in different spatial distributions of microcrustaceans. Thus, in ecosystems with excessive macrophyte development, it may be difficult to determine the microcrustacean species composition.

The relative contribution of aquatic macrophytes and their epiphytes to the production of macrophyte beds1 [PDF]

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, 1980
The epiphyte contribution to the total production of Lake Memphremagog macrophyte beds changed in a predictable fashion with the season, the morphology of the macrophytes, the depth of the bed, and the trophy of the water. In the mesotrophic portion of the lake, epiphytes fixed more carbon than the macrophytes only at the beginning and end of the ...

Herbicides for Rooted Aquatic Macrophytes [PDF]

open access: yesPlanta Daninha, 2019
ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of glyphosate, 2,4-D, and diquat to control the aquatic macrophytes Brachiaria subquadripara, Hedychium coronarium, and Myriophyllum aquaticum under greenhouse conditions. The following herbicides and doses were used: glyphosate at 240, 720, 1,680, 2,640, 3,600, and 4,320 g a.e.

Every Start is Challenging: Fitting A New Artificial Lake Into the Landscape, Zalakaros, Hungary

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Geography, 2018
The aim of this study is to conclude the experiences of the maintenance practice of an artificial thermal lake. The first years (2015-2017) of the development of the lake were analysed and evaluated along the following questions: a) What kind of design ...

Repérer les macrophytes depuis le ciel ou sous les eaux, quel appui pour les gestionnaires ?

open access: yesSciences, Eaux & Territoires, 2014
Que ce soit pour la connaissance ou dans un objectif de gestion, l'étude de la distribution des macrophytes est indispensable. Historiquement tributaire des seules prospections de terrain, l'acquisition de ces données peut aujourd'hui s'appuyer sur de ...

Socio-ecological impacts of water hyacinth, Eichhornia crassipes (MART.) in Lake Tana, Gulf of Gorgora, Ethiopia

open access: yesJournal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2021
Water hyacinth is one of the aggressive alien aquatic macrophyte threatening biodiversity, economic development and human wellbeing. Currently, the macrophyte has invaded Lake Tana and its catchment causing several socio-ecological impacts.

Control of algal growth by macrophytes and macrophyte-extracted bioactive compounds

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 1996
Algae (Selenastrum capricornutum and Microcystis aeruginosa) were respectively assayed in a mixed-culture system using various concentrations of macrophytes obtained from Egeria densa, Cabomba caroliniana, and Myriophyllum spicatum in order to evaluate their inhibitory effects on algal growth due to possible secretion of anti-algal bioactive compounds ...

An Analysis of the Reaction of Frogbit (Hydrocharis morsus-ranae L.) to Cadmium Contamination with a View to Its Use in the Phytoremediation of Water Bodies

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Macrophytes play an important role in assessing the condition of aquatic ecosystems. The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of cadmium uptake by frogbit (Hydrocharis morsus-ranae) for the phytoremediation of aquatic ecosystems.
