Microplastics, as an emergent pollutant, have garnered substantial attention within aquatic
environments, yet a significant knowledge gap persists regarding the interplay of organism …

To explore whether zooplankton are useful indicators of water quality in subtropical lakes
with large surrounding human populations and aquacultural activities, we conducted a study …

Climate change threatens surface waters worldwide, especially shallow lakes where one of
the expected consequences is a sharp increase in their water temperatures. Phytobenthos is …

Shallow lakes are globally the most numerous water bodies and are sensitive to external
perturbations, including eutrophication and climate change, which threaten their functioning …

The littoral zone of shallow water bodies (SWB) is highly susceptible to water level
fluctuations (WLF) caused by ongoing climate-related hydrologic regime changes. The …

Climate change stressors, including warming and heatwaves, can alter plankton
composition and dominance patterns in temperate shallow lakes, which can disrupt …

Cladocerans are biological indicators of environmental changes. Their remains provide
information on past changes in lake environments. We studied the correspondence between …

Climate warming threatens the structure and function of shallow lakes, not least those in the
Mediterranean climate. We used a space-for-time substitution approach to assess the …

Zooplankton assemblages in the confined coastal lagoons of La Pletera salt marshes (Baix
Ter wetlands, Girona, Spain) are dominated by two species: one calanoid copepod …

In a world where pristine water is becoming scarcer, the need to reuse water becomes
imperative. In this context explaining the water quality, purpose fitness and the parameters …
