Model-based analysis of the potential of macroinvertebrates as indicators for microbial pathogens in rivers [PDF]
The quality of water prior to its use for drinking, farming or recreational purposes must comply with several physicochemical and microbiological standards to safeguard society and the environment.

Carmel River Lagoon Enhancement Project: Water Quality and Aquatic Wildlife Monitoring, 2005-6 [PDF]
In summer and fall 2004, the California Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) initiated the Carmel River Lagoon Enhancement Project. The project involved excavation of a dry remnant Arm of the lagoon and adjacent disused farmland to form a significant

Removing invasive stream macrofauna shifts nontarget invertebrate mesofauna through facilitation
Abstract Positive interactions among non‐native species can drive invasional meltdowns to the detriment of native biota. Here, we assessed whether targeted control of aquatic invasive species (AIS) can benefit native species by eliminating synergies among invaders.

Macroinvertebrados bentónicos y calidad del agua en un tramo del río Bogotá. Cajicá-Colombia
Entre febrero y septiembre de 2011, se tomaron muestras de sustrato blando en aguas someras, en tres sectores de un tramo rural del río Bogotá, ubicado en el área de Cajicá (Cundinamarca). Dada la importancia del río para la Sabana de Bogotá, el objetivo

Abstract Identifying drivers of consumer biomass patterns and community structure is complex for managed freshwater ecosystems that are sensitive to nutrients and drought. In the Florida Everglades, flow restoration is expected to reintroduce discharge across an expansive wetland, yet most research on consumers has focused on water depth and dry ...

Where Do You Fly From? Assessing Aerial Dispersal in Temporary Rivers Using Stable Isotopes
ABSTRACT Dispersal is a crucial ecological process that facilitates gene flow and species exchange within ecosystems. In temporary rivers (TRs), dispersal is a key driver of community assembly because it determines the ability of the organisms to adapt to seasonal drying and maintain stable populations.

Using fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the animal diet of black rails, yellow rails, and soras
We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the diet of yellow rails, Eastern black rails, and sora during the non‐breeding season. Arthropods, particularly ants, were prevalent in their diets, suggesting possible interactions with invasive red imported fire ants.
