Distribution and attachment characteristics of Sida crystallina (O.F. Müller, 1776) in lentic freshwater ecosystems of South Korea

Background: Macrophytes are commonly utilised as habitat by epiphytic species; thus, complex macrophyte structures can support high diversities and abundances of epiphytic species. We tested the hypothesis that the presence of aquatic macrophytes is an important factor determining Sida crystallina (O.F. Müller, 1776) distribution. Results: An ecological survey was conducted in 147 lentic freshw...

Physico-biological modeling of seasonal changes of plankton community in south of Hormoz strait

Planktons are floating microscopic organisms that are confirmed as the primary producers and initial transporters of carbon to the higher levels of food webs. Moreover, planktons have an special importance and status in the habitat of aquatic ecosystems and therefore, their population dynamic assessment is essential in the study of these ecosystems. An extensive range of physical factors viz. n...

Research Article: Effect of feeding level on water quality and plankton community structure in the yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco) rearing enclosure ecosystem

Four feeding levels (40%, 60%, 80% and 100% of satiation) were designed as the different treatment groups to assess its effects on water quality and plankton community structure in the yellow catfish rearing enclosure ecosystem. The results showed that the weight gain and specific growth rate decreased significantly as the feeding level decreased. The soluble nutrients (except for NO2-N) concen...

Submerged Macrophytes Mitigate Direct and Indirect Insecticide Effects in Freshwater Communities

Understanding how ecological interactions mitigate the impacts of perturbations such as pesticides in biological communities is an important basic and applied question for ecologists. In aquatic ecosystems, new evidence from microcosm experiments suggests that submerged macrophytes can buffer cladocerans from pulse exposures to the widely used insecticide malathion, and that mitigation increase...

Impact of Climate Change on Fisheries and Aquaculture Activities in Southern Iraq

The impacts on aquaculture and fisheries sectors from climate change in the southern part of Iraq will likely to be both positive and negative arising from direct and indirect impacts on natural resources. The main elements of climate change that could potentially impact fisheries and aquaculture activities in Iraq are temperature, rain patterns, shortage of freshwater, circulation, upwelling, ...
