Development of a flow‐sensitive macroinvertebrate index for Australian rivers

نویسندگان

چکیده

Hydrologically sensitive macroinvertebrate indices have been developed in Europe, the Americas and New Zealand to serve many purposes such as monitoring ecological responses drought, flow regulation, water extraction provision of environmental flows. We created an Australian Macroinvertebrate Flow Index (AMFI) based on relative current-velocity preferences numerous invertebrate families genera, derived from a large dataset composited past biomonitoring programs. tested new index with datasets independent those used for its derivation, showing that it correlated strongly current velocity responded mostly expected discharge fluctuations downstream dam. A genus-level version was more responsive than family-level version, but sensitivity improved by incorporation weighting taxon abundance. suggest possible uses recommend further development testing, particularly relation intermittent streams

چکیده هدف اصلی از طراحی لرزه ای تامین ایمنی جانی در هنگام وقوع زلزله و تعمیر پذیر بودن سازه خسارت دیده، پس از وقوع زلزله است. تجربه زلزله های اخیر نشان داده است که ساختمان های طراحی شده با آیین نامه های مبتنی بر نیرو از نظر محدود نمودن خسارت وارده بر سازه دقت لازم را ندارند. این امر سبب پیدایش نسل جدید آیین نامه های مبتنی بر عملکرد شده است. در این آیین نامه ها بر اساس تغییرشکل های غیرارتجاعی ...

A national survey of trace organic contaminants in Australian rivers.

Trace organic contaminant (TrOC) studies in Australia have, to date, focused on wastewater effluents, leaving a knowledge gap of their occurrence and risk in freshwater environments. This study measured 42 TrOCs including industrial compounds, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals and personal care products by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry at 73 river sites across Australia quarterly...
