Wetland soil types, which can be distinguished based on calcium carbonate content, vary in their effect ecosystem functions like phosphorus retention, salinity contributions, and greenhouse gas forcing. These types may predictively mapped with machine learning models that use terrain derivatives calculated from high-resolution digital elevation models. Soil profiles three Saskatchewan study sit...

Disturbances and environmental change are important factors determining the diversity, composition, and functioning of communities. However, knowledge about how natural bacterial communities are affected by such perturbations is still sparse. We performed a whole ecosystem manipulation experiment with freshwater rock pools where we applied salinity disturbances of different intensities. The aim...

BACKGROUND Since Spartina alterniflora (simplified as Spartina) has strong ecological competitiveness and rapid growth, it has been introduced and living in the coastal wetland regions of China for more than 30 years. Taking coastal wetland in the Beibu Gulf of south China as an example, the effects of Spartina invasion on soil quality were investigated to provide scientific basis for soil mana...

The Conceptual Wetland Mitigation Plan for Phase II expansion to the John J. Briscoe Reservoir (Briscoe Reservoir) near Monroe, Georgia uses innovative approaches to restoring palustrine wetland functions to existing lacustrine habitats. This paper presents strategies for the design of forested and scrub-shrub wetland habitats in former wastewater treatment ponds and wetland design approach and...

Background: Evaluation of heavy metals as toxic pollutants in environment has a significant importance in environmental pollution studies. surficial sediments of water resources have a high potential in releasing heavy metals to the upper water environment, hence sediment analysis presents guidelines to the authorities for monitoring the environmental systems. Methods: In this study, total an...

this study was aimed to identify and mange the most stressful risks threatening shadegan international wetland. shadegan international wetland which is located in the southwest of iran is in the montero list and now threatened by several risks. in this study, the most important threatening risks of the wetland were identified. in the characteristics step, the risks were analyzed based on the se...
