Hydrographic response of Holandsfjord to changed freshwater runoff

“Not Everything That Is Faced Can Be Changed, but Nothing Can Be Changed Until It Is Faced”: A Response to Recent Commentaries

Using native riparian barriers to reduce Giardia in agricultural runoff to freshwater ecosystems.

Waterway degradation in agricultural settings is caused by direct and diffuse sources of pollution. Waterway fencing focuses on reducing direct faecal contamination, but the extent to which it reduces overland surface runoff of pathogens is unknown. This study evaluated the potential of four riparian treatments to reduce Giardia in saturation excess surface runoff entering the waterway. Treatme...

Affectability of time to runoff and runoff coefficient in small laboratory plots to application of organic mulch

Nowadays, organic mulches are used as protective cover for the soil surface.This study in order to investigate the effect of protective cover straw Colza on the components of start time and runoff coefficient in loam – sandy soil in laboratory scale and using a rain simulation with an intensity of 50 mm / h with a 10-minute duration has been done. For this purpose, three levels of protective co...

Response of phytoplankton communities to liquid creosote in freshwater microcosms.

We assessed the response of phytoplankton communities in aquatic microcosms to single applications of liquid creosote. The creosote was applied to 14 microcosms at concentrations ranging from 0.06 to 109 mg/L. Two microcosms served as controls. Phytoplankton samples were collected from each microcosm one week and 1 d before treatment and at 7 and 21 d after treatment. Temporal changes (response...

Response of zooplankton communities to liquid creosote in freshwater microcosms.

In this study, the response of zooplankton communities to single applications of liquid creosote in model aquatic ecosystems (microcosms) was evaluated. Liquid creosote was applied to 14 microcosms at concentrations ranging from 0.06 to 109 mg/L. Two microcosms served as controls. Zooplankton samples were collected from each microcosm on days 7 and 1 before treatment and on days 2, 5, 7, 14, 21...
