Loss of submerged macrophytes in shallow lakes alters bacterial and archaeal community structures, and reduces their co-occurrence networks connectivity and complexity

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionBacteria and archaea are important components in shallow lake ecosystems and are crucial for biogeochemical cycling. While the submerged macrophyte loss is widespread in shallow lakes, the effect on the bacteria and archaea in the sediment ...

Comparison of Conventional, Rake, and Sonar‐Based Biophysical Habitat Measurements in a Shallow Ontario River

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Knowledge of habitat availability is critically important for the management and recovery of freshwater species. Quantifying habitat availability often requires fine‐scale sampling at point‐based locations across a large geographic extent, which can be laboursome.

Cabomba caroliniana and Schoenoplectus californicus as Antifouling Candidates: Anti‐Attachment and Toxicological Effects in Aurelia coerulea (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa)

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biofouling on artificial surfaces in aquatic ecosystems leads to significant economic losses. Current antifouling paints, while effective, often harm the aquatic environment. This study explores ecologically safe antifouling alternatives derived from plants, focusing on the aquatic macrophytes Cabomba caroliniana (CC) and Schoenoplectus ...

Eutrophication promoted the change of macrophyte community from R strategy to C strategy in Lake Taihu

Ecological Indicators
Functional traits effectively reflect plants’ ecological strategies in response to environmental changes. This study investigated how lake eutrophication influences macrophyte communities ecological strategies by analyzing leaf functional traits along ...

Effect of removal of free-floating macrophytes on zooplankton habitat in shallow wetland

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2014
Submerged macrophytes improve the structural heterogeneity of microhabitats in aquatic ecosystems, often providing an important habitat for zooplankton.

Species composition and morpho-ecological groups of aquatic macrophytes in foothill lakes on the eastern slope of the Southern Urals (Chelyabinsk region, Russia) [PDF]

Check List, 2015
The aquatic macrophyte richness in nine lakes situated in the Chelyabinsk region (Russia) was analyzed. These lakes represent the foothill group, located on the eastern slope of the Southern Urals range.

Geometric Morphometrics Reveal Body Shape Variation in Freshwater Shrimps of the Genus Macrobrachium Lacking a Mandibular Palp (Formerly Pseudopalaemon Sollaud, 1911) (Decapoda: Palaemonidae)

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Shape variation in the cephalothorax of Macrobrachium species without mandibular palp using geometric morphometrics was used as a tool to support species differentiation and propose new diagnostic characters for taxonomic identification.

A limpet's eye view of post‐glacial isostasy: fixed biological indicators provide new sea‐level index points for the Mid‐Holocene relative highstand in eastern Northern Ireland

Boreas, EarlyView.
Bioerosional scars made by limpets (Patella) on a cliff in Co. Antrim, Northern Ireland, indicate a Mid‐Holocene RSL of +7.8±0.55 m relative to local mid‐tide level today. This is higher than previous empirical data for the region and extrapolated levels from raised shorelines in Scotland but consistent with some recent GIA models.

Investigation on the trends and characteristics of articles on submerged macrophytes: perception from bibliometrics between 1991 and 2018

Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2019
Submerged macrophytes, as one of the most important primary producers in shallow lakes and streams, have attracted significant research attention, with relevant studies showing dynamic evolution over the past three decades.

The distribution of submerged macrophytes in response to intense solar radiation and salinity reveals hydrogen peroxide as an abiotic stress indicator

Scientific Reports, 2023
The feasible condition for submerged macrophyte growth is hard to understand as many environmental factors contribute to establishing macrophyte distribution with different intensities generating excess reactive oxygen species (ROS).
