Escherichia coli may harbor genetic mercury resistance markers which makes this bacterial species a promising alternative for bioremediation processes. The objective of this study was to investigate phenotypic and genetic characteristics related to diversity and mercury resistance among 178 Escherichia coli strains isolated from residential, industrial,

We investigate the seasonal dynamics of two freshwater snails, Biomphalaria straminea and Melanoides tuberculata, in artificial reservoirs of the Brazilian semiarid region. Despite regulated hydrology, B. straminea exhibited strong seasonal fluctuations associated with dry periods, while M. tuberculata maintained stable populations throughout the year,

Defining stream riparian zones across multidimensional environmental gradients
Abstract Riparian zones are a critical terrestrial‐aquatic ecotone. They play important roles in ecosystems including (1) harboring biodiversity, (2) influencing light and carbon fluxes to aquatic food webs, (3) maintaining water quality and streamflow, (4) enhancing aquatic habitat, (5) influencing greenhouse gas production, and (6) sequestering ...

Clarifying the trophic state concept to advance macroscale freshwater science and management
Abstract For over a century, ecologists have used the concept of trophic state (TS) to characterize an aquatic ecosystem's biological productivity. However, multiple TS classification schemes, each relying on a variety of measurable parameters as proxies for productivity, have emerged to meet use‐specific needs.

Abstract Inland waterways have historically been viewed as a desirable means for transporting commodities. However, creating and maintaining navigable river channels can entail substantial geomorphological modifications, resulting in changes to the ecohydrology of a river and its adjacent floodplains.
