A proposed aquatic plant community biotic index for wisconsin lakes.
The Aquatic Macrophyte Community Index (AMCI) is a multipurpose tool developed to assess the biological quality of aquatic plant communities in lakes. It can be used to specifically analyze aquatic plant communities or as part of a multimetric system to assess overall lake quality for regulatory, planning, management, educational, or research purposes. The components of the index are maximum de...
متن کاملEnvironmental Factors and Aquatic Macrophytes in the Littoral Zone of Regulated Lakes
Water level regulation for purposes of hydropower production has caused notable changes in the littoral zones of regulated lakes in northern Finland. Marked geomorphological changes have taken place in the lakes with a raised water level. Lowering of the ice cover during the winter has also caused rapid changes in the littoral. Changes in the environmental conditions and aquatic macrophyte comm...
متن کاملTemporal variations in methane emissions from emergent aquatic macrophytes in two boreonemoral lakes
Methane (CH4) emissions via emergent aquatic macrophytes can contribute substantially to the global CH4 balance. We addressed temporal variability in CH4 flux by using the static chamber approach to quantify fluxes from plots dominated by two species considered to differ in flux transport mechanisms (Phragmites australis, Carex rostrata). Temporal variability in daily mean emissions from early ...
متن کاملSeasonal aquatic macrophytes reduce water temperatures via a riverine canopy in a spring-fed stream
Maximum water temperatures in streams throughout the western USA typically occur in late summer and early autumn, coinciding with low stream flow. However, in the spring-fed Big Springs Creek in northern California, where constant-temperature groundwater springs provide relatively stable stream flow throughout the year, peak water temperatures and maximum diurnal variability occur in spring. We...
متن کاملFate of Nitrogen and Phosphorus in a Waste-water Retention Reservoir Containing Aquatic Macrophytes
Potential use of retention/detention reservoirs stocked with vascular aquatic macrophytes was evaluated, using a microcosm reservoir for reducing the N and P levels of agricultural drainage effluents (waste water). The treatments evaluated were reservoirs stocked with (i) pennywort (Hydrocotyle umbellata L.), (ii) water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes [Mart] Solms), (iii) cattails (Typha latifol...
