Lowland lotic ecosystems are under increasing pollution pressure. In this study, we analyzed the plankton community responses to environmental changes, including natural ones and those related anthropogenic activities, finally determine their optimums in conditions. four dates, seven streams were sampled, a total of twenty-one physical-chemical variables measured or estimated (including metals pesticides). Partial redundancy analyses performed, as well as, General Linear Models (GLM)...
This article reports on the ecological preferences of benthic diatoms in relation to pH, conductivity and organic pollution-eutrophication their tolerance spectrums. Three Pampean streams subjected different human impacts were studied. The bottom substrate these is mostly composed slime-clay with low proportions gravel sand ; consequence, epipelon most represented community. Samples taken seasonally between 1997-1998 at 9 sampling sites. In each station ten sub-samples collected by pipetting...

The theory of ecological stoichiometry holds that heterotrophs are mostly homeostatic and exhibit less variation in body than do autotrophs. Most studies stream foodweb have been done low-nutrient environments. Little is known about nutrient-rich streams, which a higher level stoichiometric homeostasis should be expected, mainly because imbalances between resources consumers low nutrient availability may meet biotic requirements. We analyzed elemental content (C, N, P) ratios (C∶N, C∶P, N∶P)...
A study of samples collected in the Don Carlos Stream, a small stream that runs across an urbanised and industrialised area Pampean plain, displayed abnormalities valves Pinnularia gibba Ehrenberg.Three stations were sampled different sectors stream: station was located upstream exposed to agricultural activity, B C sewage effluent outflows from textile metallurgical factories, respectively.Acetate sheets placed on bricks, fastened with several staples.were used as artificial substrata...
Abstract Despite the critical importance of zooplankton for many ecological processes, knowledge its structure and distribution patterns in small streams subject to intensive land uses remains limited. Here we analysed changes community composition 10 sites located from first‐order sixteenth‐order, according Shreve's classification, a catchment influenced by agriculture. Using univariate multivariate methods, investigated extent which local scale environmental factors explained spatial...

Photosynthetic picoeukaryotes (PPE) are key components of primary production in marine and freshwater ecosystems. In contrast with those environments, PPE groups have received little attention. this work, we used flow cytometry cell sorting, microscopy metabarcoding to investigate the composition small photosynthetic eukaryote communities from six eutrophic shallow lakes South America, Argentina. We compared total molecular diversity obtained sorted populations as well filtered plankton...
Abstract Macrophytes were transplanted into a lowland stream affected by river engineering works. The aim was to analyse the feasibility of their reintroduction and potential be used for recovery structure complexity lotic habitat. contribute heterogeneity streams, modify current velocity, affect sediment nutrients dynamics, provide substrate epiphytic biofilm.
