MISS diversity from saline lakes of Brazilian Pantanal: Origin, potential of preservation and comparison with examples of the Ediacaran‐Cambrian shallow depositional settings

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One of the largest wetlands on Earth, the Brazilian Pantanal contains roughly 10 000 natural lakes, about 1000 of which are hypersaline. In these environmentally stressful settings, animal life struggles to survive, while cyanobacteria form extensive mats.

Trophic relationships between primary producers and associated fauna in a pristine Cerrado pond

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2019
Ponds arising from groundwater in Cerrado of Central Brazil are oligotrophic but highly biodiverse environments. In this study, we used stable isotope ratios to test if there are variations in carbon and nitrogen acquisition by different primary food ...

Changes In Submersed Macrophytes In Relation To Tidal Storm Surges [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We analyzed long-term submersed macrophyte presence-absence data collected from 15 stations in Kings Bay/Crystal River, Florida in relation to three major storm events.

Relative impacts of morphological alteration to shorelines and eutrophication on littoral macroinvertebrates in Mediterranean lakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Development of effective methods for assessing the ecological status of lakes based on littoral benthic fauna has been hampered by the lack of quantitative data on the relative impacts of key pressures on the benthic community.

Into the Wild: Farm‐Derived Energy and Nutrients Enter Marine Food Webs With Carrying Capacity Implications for Aquaculture Management

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Marine aquaculture is expanding globally, yet its interactions with surrounding ecosystems remain complex and insufficiently understood. This study reviews the fluxes of energy and nutrients from three major aquaculture systems: finfish cages, suspended bivalves, and seaweed farms and considers their implications for ecosystem functioning and ...

Vertical optical complexity shaped by submerged macrophytes

open access: yesScientific Reports
AbstractThe influence of macrophytes on the optical environment of the littoral zone was assessed by studying the effect of monospecific Potamogeton perfoliatus on the quantitative and qualitative properties of light and the response of plants to this altered environment. P.

Data on the Distribution and Ecology of Pistia stratiotes L. (Araceae) in Hungary

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Free‐floating macrophyte invasions pose an increasing threat to lowland freshwater systems in Central Europe, particularly in thermally influenced canal networks. This study provides the first detailed assessment of the distribution, habitat conditions, dispersal, and reproduction of Pistia stratiotes along the Élővíz Canal in southeastern Hungary ...

The effects of nutrient level on periphyton–macrophyte interactions in freshwater ecosystems

open access: yesWater Biology and Security
Periphyton are one of the key primary producers in aquatic ecosystems, particularly in oligotrophic shallow lakes. Submerged macrophytes are capable of competing with periphyton for nutrients and light, but may also facilitate periphyton by providing ...

Influence of submerged macrophytes on phosphorus in a eutrophic reservoir in a semiarid region

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2020
Phosphorus (P) is the main nutrient responsible for the harmful effects caused by the enrichment of aquatic systems, and submerged macrophytes play an important role in this process, since they can both remove and release this nutrient in environmental ...

Skistodiaptomus pallidus (Copepoda: Diaptomidae) establishment in New Zealand natural lakes, and its effects on zooplankton community composition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The North American calanoid copepod Skistodiaptomus pallidus is an emerging invader globally, with non-indigenous populations recorded from constructed waters in New Zealand, Germany and Mexico since 2000. We examined the effects of S.
