Assessing the Impact of Hydraulic Retention Time and Sawdust on the Elimination of Pb and Co from Oily Wastewater via Vertical-Flow Constructed Wetlands (VFCWs) with Phragmites Australis Cultivation [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Chemical EngineeringConstructed wetlands have been increasingly used as an effective method for removing heavy metals from wastewater. This study aimed to investigate the combined effect of sawdust and Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) on the performance of vertical-flow ...

Livestock as a potential biological control agent for an invasive wetland plant [PDF]
PeerJ, 2014 Invasive species threaten biodiversity and incur costs exceeding billions of US$. Eradication efforts, however, are nearly always unsuccessful. Throughout much of North America, land managers have used expensive, and ultimately ineffective, techniques to

A study of the root surface phosphatase activities of three species of higher plants: Juncus effusus, Phragnutes australis, and Typha latifolia [PDF]
, 1993 The aim of this project was to investigate a possible link between environmental phosphorus status and the root surface phosphatase activities of three species of emergent macrophytes, with a view to assessing their potential for use as "biondicators ...

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Temperate fens with only incipient, subtle signs of deterioration can be reliably identified using Sentinel‐2 and aerial imagery, which sensitively detect early productivity‐related structural changes. Abstract Small temperate fens rank among the most endangered habitats in temperate Europe.

WASTELAND ACTIVISM: Political Weeds and Ecological Imaginaries in Montreal
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Montreal, this article examines the ways in which urban dwellers and activists engage with the living materialities of wastelands to illuminate evolving ecological imaginaries and their political potentials.

Effects of interspecific competition on the growth of macrophytes and nutrient removal in constructed wetlands: A comparative assessment of free water surface and horizontal subsurface flow systems [PDF]
, 2016 © 2016 Elsevier Ltd. The outcome of competition between adjoining interspecific colonies of Phragmites and Typha in two large field pilot-scale free water surface (FWS) and subsurface flow (SSF) CWs is evaluated.

Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract This paper explores the relationship between wetland ecosystems and prehistoric lakeshore settlements within the Lake Ohrid basin (a biodiversity hotspot) by considering plant food systems at Ploča Mičov Grad, North Macedonia. The mid‐fifth millennium (c.4555–4373 to 4437–4241 cal BCE) waterlogged assemblage contained a diverse spectrum of ...
