The microbiotest battery as an important component in the assessment of snowmelt toxicity in urban watercourses—preliminary studies [PDF]
, 2015 The aim of the study was to use a battery of biotests composed of producers (Selenastrum capricornutum, Sorghum saccharatum, Lepidium sativum, and Sinapis alba), consumers (Thamnocephalus platyurus), and decomposers (Tetrahymena thermophila) to ...

The impacts of natural flood management approaches on in-channel sediment quality [PDF]
, 2016 Natural Flood Management (NFM) techniques aim to reduce downstream flooding by storing and slowing the flow of stormwater to river channels. These techniques include a range of measures, including setback stormwater outfalls and the physical restoration ...

Road salt alters chironomid assemblage structure and impairs diversity in coastal urban lakes
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Lakes in urban areas face increasing salinization from the widespread application of road de‐icing salts. Chironomid (Diptera: Chironomidae) larvae are common bioindicators and important lower‐trophic‐level organisms, but their response to road salt in urban lakes is not well‐characterized.

Urban stormwater runoff: a new class of environmental flow problem.
PLoS ONE, 2012 Environmental flow assessment frameworks have begun to consider changes to flow regimes resulting from land-use change. Urban stormwater runoff, which degrades streams through altered volume, pattern and quality of flow, presents a problem that ...
