Resistance and reconfiguration of natural flexible submerged vegetation in hydrodynamic river modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In-stream submerged macrophytes have a complex morphology and several species are not rigid, but are flexible and reconfigure along with the major flow direction to avoid potential damage at high stream velocities.

Physical environment, nutrient budget, and ecology of Lake Moana-nui, Tokoroa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This report is based on fortnightly monitoring data collected over a 14 month period from November 2000 to January 2002 and a survey of the lake bathymetry and vegetation distribution.

Local ciliate communities associated with aquatic macrophytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This study, based within the catchment area of the River Frome, an important chalk stream in the south of England, compared ciliated protozoan communities associated with three species of aquatic macrophyte common to lotic habitats: Ranunculus ...

Control of macrophytes by grass carp (ctenopharyngodon idella) in a Waikato drain, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Hornwort (Ceratophyllum demersum L.) and other aquatic macrophytes have historically been mechanically removed from the Rangiriri drain and Churchill East drain to maintain drain efficiency.

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 ...

Effects of Submerged Macrophyte Decomposition on Water Quality

open access: yesNature Environment and Pollution Technology, 2022
Submerged macrophytes play an important role in aquatic ecosystems and are widely used in aquatic ecological restoration. However, when submerged macrophytes fade, litter, or even decompose, they may cause adverse effects on water quality. In this article, indoor experiments were carried out to study the quantitative influence of submerged plant ...

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 ...

Quantifying measures to limit wind driven resuspension of sediments for improvement of the ecological quality in some shallow Dutch lakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Although phosphorus loadings are considered the main pressure for most shallow lakes, wind-driven resuspension can cause additional problems for these aquatic ecosystems. We quantified the potential effectiveness of measures to reduce the contribution of

Consumption of submerged aquatic macrophytes by rudd (scardinius erythrophthalmus L.) in New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In experiments in New Zealand, rudd (Scardinius erythrophthalmus L.) of 108–277mm fork length (FL) ate a wide range of native and introduced submerged aquatic macrophytes in captivity and in the field.
