Submerged macrophytes play an important role in maintaining good water quality shallow lakes. Yet extensive stands easily interfere with various services provided by these lakes, and harvesting is increasingly applied as a management measure. Because lakes may possess alternative stable states over wide range of environmental conditions, designing successful mowing strategy challenging, given the stabilizing clear state. In this study, integrated ecosystem model PCLake used to explore...
Throughout the world, mass development of native and non-native submerged macrophytes leads to nuisance problems for humans. However, often neither type nor characteristics vegetation have been uniformly quantified, leaving as a largely unsubstantiated qualification. The lack consensus about when plants cause hampers comparative research on environmental conditions leading nuisance. Furthermore, defining evaluating management goals reduce caused by are not possible remain unquantified. In...
Abstract When facing new climate extremes, aquatic plant communities may experience more frequent or increasing durations of water shortages. Aquatic macrophytes permanently inundated habitats (true hydrophytes) lack the physiological morphological characteristics that protect terrestrial plants from drying out. hydrophytes with floating emergent leaves are expected to be resilient droughts than completely submerged plants, as they have adapted air-exposed conditions. Therefore, we latter...
Bone-anchored protheses (BAPs) by means of osseointegrated implants are increasingly being used in amputees with socket-related issues. Clinical advancements published more and centers worldwide. Although the number publications interest BAP is growing, a systematic evaluation scholarly output lacking.
The quagga mussel (Dreissena rostriformis bugensis) and zebra polymorpha) are invasive freshwater bivalves in Europe North America. distribution range of both Dreissena species is still expanding cause major biofouling ecological effects, particular when they invade new areas. In order to assess the effect temperature, salinity light on initial byssogenesis species, 24 h re-attachment experiments standing water were conducted. At a temperature 25°C 0.2 psu, rate D. polymorpha was...
The presence of a high diversity different successional stages in landscape may help to conserve and promote landscape-wide biodiversity. A strategy achieve this is using Cyclic Rejuvenation through Management (CRM), an approach employed variety ecosystems. CRM periodically resets the landscape. For aquatic systems constitutes vegetation removal dredging. be useful (a) are required community composition (b) these differences must caused by true replacement species between stages. While...
To examine the effects of depth on performance freshwater dreissenid species Dreissena polymorpha and D. rostriformis bugensis, brackish water dreissenid, Mytilopsis leucophaeata, a controlled experiment lasting four months was conducted in manmade lake Netherlands.The three used were collected from other bodies Netherlands.Cages containing each separate compartments placed at depths 2, 5, 10 17 m November 2009 until February 2010.Samples individuals retrieved start approximately four-week...
In 1902, the nationwide citizen science project, known as FLORIVON, for mapping flora of Netherlands was launched, resulting in publication a complete atlas 1980. Until 2004, dataset fieldwork between 1902 and 1950 had only been partly digitised observations were aggregated anonymised. Between 2001 2018, has entirely from original field forms, including notes on non-native taxa. This paper presents key characteristics figures provides an overview historical survey digitisation process...
