چکیده

The effects of treated and untreated water inlets with macrophytes on the improvement of water quality and zooplankton community were evaluated in a fish pond with continuous water flow. Water and zooplankton samples were retrieved at four sites during nine months. There were differences (p<0.01) between inlet water from fish pond and inlet water from canal with macrophytes, featuring higher concentrations of nutrient load, mainly TAN and TP in the former. The inlet water from fish pond contained a higher number of abundant species (9 species), whilst the water supply from the canal with macrophytes had a greater richness (31 species) of zooplankton species. Results showed that inlet water without macrophytes directly affected the characteristics of the water column and the dominance of zooplankton species such as Thermocyclops decipiens, and greater abundance of Rotifera species. Since aquatic plants in the inlet water of fish pond analyzed showed lower allochthonous material loads from the previous fish pond, the management adopted with macrophytes may be applied to avoid eutrophication risks, common in farm ponds.

The Use of Mechanical Aeration and Its Effects on Water Mass

Due to the increasing use of artificial aerators in fish ponds, and to the lack of studies on this subject, this work studied some of the aspects associated with their use. The influence of a diffuser type aerator (AR 120) on the biotic and abiotic variables was evaluated in a fish pond. Three points of the pond were marked for the taking of samples: 5, 10 and 23 m from the aerator. Samples wer...

Food Webs in Relation to Variation in the Environment and Species Assemblage: A Multivariate Approach

The abiotic environment has strong influences on the growth, survival, behavior, and ecology of aquatic organisms. Biotic interactions and species life histories interact with abiotic factors to structure the food web. One measure of food-web structure is food-chain length. Several hypotheses predict a linear relationship between one environmental variable (e.g., disturbance or ecosystem size) ...
