Both natural and anthropogenic processes can lead to the increasing salinity of surface
waters. The knowledge about the ecological consequences of salinization on the biota is …

The invasion and spread of non-native species of many different kinds of organisms is of
increasing interest to researchers. Invasions by microscopic organisms, however, are poorly …

Water diversion has been widely used to address water shortages and security issues.
However, its long-term ecological impacts, particularly on the biodiversity and structure of …

Paradoxically, although turbulence characterises the open water environments of planktonic
organisms in lakes, rivers and seas, most species of phytoplankton are smaller than the size …

This paper introduces a series of contributions to the ninth meeting of the International
Association of Phytoplankton Taxonomy and Ecology, held in Belgium during July, 1993. It …

Sažetak Centric diatoms of 107 different Hungarian running waters were investigated.
Among them the largest was the River Danube, from which more than one hundred plankton …

In comparison to lentic systems, the species composition and community structure of
phytoplankton in lotic habitats are still poorly understood. We investigated the spatial and …

We determined the effects of temperature and nutrients on the chain length of a diatom,
Skeletonema costatum, in batch culture and enclosure experiments with estuarine water …

Phytoplankton species composition, horizontal distribution, seasonal-and long-term
dynamics are investigated in relation to some environmental factors, based on about 700 …

The value of algae as bio-indicators has already been recognized in the mid of 19th century,
however, little attention has been paid to the application of phytoplankton in ecological …
