Algae react to changes in their environment, such as temperature, nutrients, etc. The uncertainty aquatic environments exacerbates several interacting pressures. As a result, lakes are vital society because they help mitigate flood risks. It maintains the natural equilibrium, allowing flora and fauna flourish. primary objective of this research is identify trophic state index, category, algal a...

Benthic diatoms have been universally used as indicators to assess water quality in lotic ecosystems. However, most diatom-based indices developed in Europe have not been widely used or tested in other continents such as Asia or Oceania. This study compared the performance of 14 widely-applied diatom indices in assessing ecological conditions in subtropical streams in South East Queensland (SEQ...

Remote monitoring of trophic state for inland waters is a hotspot water quality studies worldwide. However, the complex optical properties limit potential algorithms. This research aims to develop an algorithm estimate in waters. First, turbid index was applied determination types on each pixel, and bodies are divided into two categories: algae-dominated (Type I) II). The algal biomass (ABI) th...

We synthesized available information from ecological models at local and regional scales to obtain a global picture of the trophic position and ecological role of squids in marine ecosystems. First, static food-web models were used to analyze basic ecological parameters and indicators of squids: biomass, production, consumption, trophic level, omnivory index, predation mortality diet, and the e...

In tropical mangroves, brachyuran crabs have been observed to consume high percentages of leaf litter production. However, questions concerning their ability to assimilate this low-quality food remain, as stable isotope analysis of C and N does not seem to support assimilation. Individuals of the common eastern Australian mangrove grapsid Parasesarma erythodactyla feeding on a mangrove leaf lit...
