Herbicides for Rooted Aquatic Macrophytes [PDF]
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.

Macrophytes as bioindicators [PDF]
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

Satellite remote sensing can be an effective alternative for mapping cyanobacterial scums and aquatic macrophyte distribution over large areas compared with traditional ship’s site-specific samplings.

Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are used to assist phytoremediation. Synthetic PGPR can adapt to diverse sediment environments more effectively than single PGPR. However, their mechanisms of application in submerged macrophytes remediation of

The effects of nutrient level on periphyton–macrophyte interactions in freshwater ecosystems
Periphyton are one of the key primary producers in aquatic ecosystems, particularly in oligotrophic shallow lakes. Submerged macrophytes are capable of competing with periphyton for nutrients and light, but may also facilitate periphyton by providing ...

ABSTRACT Shell middens in Gippsland along the eastern half of Victoria's coastline have usually been characterised as small, short‐duration camp sites with relatively low shell densities and low taxonomic diversity. Here we present new excavation results from a dense, high‐diversity site at Red Bluff near the eastern end of GunaiKurnai Country, a ...

The impacts of biological invasions
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Climate change and intensified human activities have disrupted the natural hydrological regime and rhythm of river-connected lakes, extending the dry season, increasing water loss, and exposing previously submerged lake floors.

Ivermectin Toxicity in Humans and Animals: Clinical Spectrum, Mechanisms, and Management
ABSTRACT Ivermectin is a widely used macrocyclic lactone with established efficacy against a broad range of parasitic infections in humans and animals and a long‐standing reputation for clinical safety. However, increasing evidence indicates that ivermectin can produce clinically relevant toxicity under specific conditions, particularly involving the ...
