The tropical brown alga Lobophora variegata as a bioindicator of mining
19 20 Previous field and laboratory studies have identified the alga Lobophora variegata as a good 21 candidate for biomonitoring metal contamination in the New Caledonia lagoon which is 22 subjected to intensive and extensive metal inputs from land-based mining activities. The aim 23 of this work was to further assess the bioindicative potential of this species by investigating, 24 in the fiel...
متن کاملCuliseta subochrea as a Bioindicator of Metal Contamination in Shadegan International Wetland, Iran (Diptera: Culicidae)
The quantity of some trace metals of mosquito larvae in Shadegan International Wetland from Iran was evaluated. Water, waterbed sediment, and mosquito larvae samplings were carried out from an urban site in the east of the wetland, using standard methods in December 2011. The identified Culiseta subochrea (Edwards) and Aedes caspius s.l. (Pallas) larvae, water, and waterbed sediment samples wer...
متن کاملContribution of seagrass plants to CO2 capture in a tropical seagrass meadow under experimental disturbance
Coastal vegetative habitats are known to be highly productive environments with a high ability to capture and store carbon. During disturbance this important function could be compromised as plant photosynthetic capacity, biomass, and/or growth are reduced. To evaluate effects of disturbance on CO2 capture in plants we performed a five-month manipulative experiment in a tropical seagrass (Thala...
متن کاملUsing Benthic Diatoms as a Bioindicator to Assess Rural-urban River Conditions in Tropical Area: A Case Study in the Sai Gon River, Vietnam
The changes in diatom assemblages along an urban-to-rural gradient were characterized to assess the ecological status of the Sai Gon River, Vietnam. Diatoms and physico-chemical variables were measured at 10 stations during dry and rainy season. One-way ANOVA showed that diatom metrics and physicochemical variables were significantly different (p < 0.05) between the upper course sites and both ...
