Do Amplitudes of Water Level Fluctuations Affect the Growth and Community Structure of Submerged Macrophytes? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Submerged macrophytes are subjected to potential mechanical stresses associated with fluctuating water levels in natural conditions. However, few experimental studies have been conducted to further understand the effects of water level fluctuating ...

The Distribution and Production of Submerged Macrophytes in Loch Leven, Kinross [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. Section B. Biology, 1974
SynopsisThe distribution and production of submerged macrophytes in Loch Leven has been investigated using drag-rake surveys and biomass measurements. Survey data suggest that changes in the species diversity of the loch have occurred since the earlier records.

Structure of epiphyton communities on Lake Baikal submerged macrophytes [PDF]

open access: yesLimnological Review, 2012
Abstract We carried out a first study of Lake Baikal epiphyton on six species of submerged macrophytes: Myriophyllum spicatum L., Potamogeton perfoliatus L., Potamogeton sp., Sparganium gramineum Georgi, Ceratophyllum demersum L., and Elodea сanadensis Michaux.

Spatial distribution and biomass of aquatic rooted macrophytes and their relevance in the metabolism of a Mediterranean coastal lagoon

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2007
This work aims to characterise the current autotrophic compartment of the Albufera des Grau coastal lagoon (Menorca, Balearic Islands) and to assess the relationship between the submerged macrophytes and the limnological parameters of the lagoon ...

Heat waves rather than continuous warming exacerbate impacts of nutrient loading and herbicides on aquatic ecosystems

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2022
Submerged macrophytes are vital components in shallow aquatic ecosystems, but their abundances have declined globally. Shading by periphyton and phytoplankton/turbidity plays a major role in this decline, and the competing aquatic primary producers are ...

Submerged Macrophytes Exhibit Different Phosphorus Stoichiometric Homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Phosphorus (P) is a limiting element in many aquatic ecosystems. Excessive P input often leads to cyanobacterial bloom, thus triggering ecological imbalances and a series of environmental problems. Submerged macrophytes have a strong ability to absorb P and play important roles in maintaining aquatic ecosystem functions.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Lake Restoration with Submerged Macrophytes

open access: yesWater, 2023
Submerged macrophytes have attracted increasing attention in lake restoration due to the importance of their structuring communities and stabilizing functions in lake ecosystems. However, there is still a lack of systematic reviews on lake restoration with submerged macrophytes.

Interactive effects of light and snail herbivory rather than nutrient loading determine early establishment of submerged macrophytes

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Submerged macrophytes play a key role in maintaining a clear‐water phase and promoting biodiversity in shallow aquatic ecosystems. Since their abundance has declined globally due to anthropogenic activities, it is important to include them in aquatic ...

Development and Improvement of Habitat Suitability Criteria for Instream Habitat Assessments Conducted in Support of Environmental Flows in Florida

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Florida's regulatory framework requires the establishment of minimum flows to protect aquatic ecosystems and water resources from significant harm. One of the primary methods used to evaluate significant harm is assessment of instream habitat, which relies on Habitat Suitability Criteria (HSC) curves that relate flow regimes and habitat ...

POLYPHENOLS WITH ALGICIDAL ACTIVITY IN THE SUBMERGED MACROPHYTE MYRIOPHYLLUM SPICATUM L. [PDF]

open access: yesActa Horticulturae, 1994
The role of phenols as defence mechanisms in various terrestrial plants is well studied. However, in aquatic environments, they are probably involved also in the chemical interactions between species. A periodic shift from dominance by submerged macrophytes to dominance by phytoplankton and vice versa without apparent change in the external nutrient ...
