Leachates and elemental ratios of macrophytes and benthic algae of an Andean high altitude wetland

Journal of Limnology, 2011
In wetlands, macrophytes and filamentous algae constitute an important carbon source for the total content of Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) of the environment.

Aquatic macrophytes as nature‐based solutions: Challenges and opportunities across inland and coastal waters

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract Macrophytes are foundation species whose use as nature‐based solution (NbS) in aquatic ecosystems can help reduce climate change impacts while mitigating biodiversity loss. The discrepancy in research and application of macrophytes as NbS across inland and marine coastal ecosystems is an opportunity to expand the concept and learn from ...

Do Coexisting Cryptic Species of Predatory Peacock Bass (Cichliformes: Cichlidae) Partition Their Niche?

Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 35, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The mechanisms facilitating coexistence of cryptic species in sympatry have long puzzled ecologists. Cryptic species have nearly identical morphology and, therefore, would be presumed to have high niche overlap and potential for interspecific competition and competitive exclusion when resources are limited. Lowland rivers in South America have

Worldwide Invasions of Centrarchidae: The Dark Side of the Sunfish Family

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 781-812, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Freshwater fish invasions are major drivers of global ecological change, disrupting native biodiversity and ecosystem functions. However, many invasive fish hold significant socioeconomic value, resulting in conflict over their management. Centrarchidae, which are globally distributed and are important for sportfishing and aquaculture, are now

Ocean warming indirectly affects seagrass performance through effects on sediment microbial communities

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 1, Page 191-206, July 2026.
Summary Belowground microbes are increasingly recognised as mediators of plant responses to stress, but it remains unclear whether the thermal histories of marine plants and their associated belowground microbes influence plant performance under ocean warming.

Zooplankton Community Stability and Environmental Filtering in a Shallow Eutrophic Lake

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Anthropogenic pressures led to zooplankton shift to small‐bodied dominance, not structural reorganization. Integrated management is crucial for long‐term resilience. ABSTRACT Zooplankton are key regulators of trophic interactions and nutrient cycling in shallow eutrophic lakes and are sensitive indicators of ecological responses to anthropogenic ...

Unveiling Zooplankton Diversity Patterns: The Differential Influence of Macrophyte Belts on Species and Functional Metrics

Diversity
Species and functional diversity are essential frameworks for analyzing changes in planktonic communities. In lakes and rivers, macrophytes within the coastal zone are a primary determinant of zooplankton community structure and function.

Comprehensive effects of lake dredging on microbial community and dissolved organic matter compositions in surface sediments

Ecological Indicators
Sediment dredging and submerged macrophyte restoration are effective ways to improve water quality, especially in eutrophic shallow lakes. However, the impact of dredging on the interactions between dissolved organic matter (DOM) and microbial ...

The impact of epiphytic algae on the foliar traits of Potamogeton perfoliatus

Frontiers in Plant Science
This study investigated the effect of epiphyton on foliar traits of a submerged rooted macrophyte, Potamogeton perfoliatus, in a shallow freshwater lake, highlighting its influence on the ecological dynamics of littoral zones in aquatic ecosystems.
