King rail (Rallus elegans) home range and microhabitat characteristics in western Lake Erie coastal marshes. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2023
We studied microhabitat and home‐range characteristics of the king rail, a secretive marsh bird of conservation concern, in the western Lake Erie region. Our results suggest that king rails in the region have mean home‐range sizes of 8.8 ha (±1.63 [SE]; range = 1.9 to 15.8) and utilize water depths of 6 to 17 cm within dense vegetation.

Developing and Validating Species Distribution Models for Wetland Plants Across Europe. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We fitted species distribution models (SDMs) for 265 wetland plant species in Europe. We validated predicted occurrences using independent data. The SDMs showed a high predictive performance, such that our SDMs can be used to predict broad‐scale distributions of wetland plants.

Wild Bee Assemblages and Pollination Networks of Managed Emergent Wetlands in Central New York, USA. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Wetlands are underrepresented in wild bee surveys yet we find they host a diversity of bee species and offer important late‐season floral resources. Wetland restoration and management for wildlife in the northeastern United States creates a matrix of freshwater wetland habitat that helps support the landscape's wild bee fauna.

Scrub encroachment promotes biodiversity in temperate European wetlands under eutrophic conditions. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2022
We examine the effects of encroachment on biodiversity along gradients of soil moisture and soil fertility in open and wooded wetlands in Denmark. Our results support existing knowledge of the importance of nutrient poor, wet mires and meadows for rare species but on former arable lands where restoration of infertile habitats is less feasible we ...

Scanning Electron Microscopy in the Analysis of Species of the Genus Persicaria Mill

Разработка и регистрация лекарственных средств, 2022
Introduction. Scanning electron microscopy acts as a promising method of analysis, allowing to describe in detail the identification features of closely related plant species, as well as to conduct micro-roentgenstructural analysis of the sample in the ...

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Plant–Soil–Enzyme Interactions in Intertidal Wetlands [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study reveals that during the exposure period in the Shengjin Lake intertidal wetland, the temporal gradient serves as the primary driving force for changes in the plant–soil–enzyme system, followed by alkaline phosphatase activity, nitrate nitrogen, and pH.

Performance of an environmentally‐aligned, low maintenance flood alleviation scheme on the Burn of Mosset, Forres, Scotland

River Research and Applications, Volume 38, Issue 9, Page 1544-1554, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Flooding of the town of Forres, Scotland prompted the implementation of a flood alleviation scheme (FAS) featuring a low earth‐fill dam constructed upstream of the town to create a flood retention area, limiting peak discharges entering the urban area. Flow through the dam is controlled by a weir, and it was recognised that if coarse sediment,

Ecotoxicity Thresholds for Ametryn, Diuron, Hexazinone and Simazine in Fresh and Marine Waters [PDF]

, 2018
Triazine and urea herbicides are two groups of photosystem II inhibiting herbicides frequently detected in surface, ground and marine waters. Yet, there are few water quality guidelines for herbicides. Ecotoxicity thresholds (ETs) for ametryn, hexazinone
