Ecological Quality Assessment of Stream Ecosystems Using Benthic Macroinvertebrates
Author: Mi-Young Song

Languages : en
Pages : 99
Book Description
In this study, we applied the SOM for ecological assessment using benthic macroinvertebrates in aquatic ecosystem. First, Chapter I, SOM was utilized to extract information from complex data of environmental variables and benthic macroinvertebrate communities residing in different micro-habitats. Although the sampling was carried out in a limited area, the patterns of environmental variables revealed spatial heterogeneity. The clustering of benthic macroinvertebrate communities in the trained SOM was efficient in showing temporal variation and evaluating water quality according to the conditions of different micro-habitats. Consequently, local spatial heterogeneity is important in revealing dynamics of community abundance and biotic indices, especially regarding restoration processes in polluted streams. Chapter II, the samples were grouped into three main clusters corresponding to distinc EPTC assemblages in the tributary streams of the Garonne River catchment, southern France. Lower richness and diversity of macroinvertebrates were observed in the areas affected by agricultural land use, being associated with high Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Nitrate (NO3) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). Tolerant EPTC species were identified as controlling parameters for the changes in the assemblages collected at the agricultural-impacted sites...

Tropical Stream Ecology
Author: David Dudgeon
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080557171
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 343
Book Description
Tropical Stream Ecology describes the main features of tropical streams and their ecology. It covers the major physico-chemical features, important processes such as primary production and organic-matter transformation, as well as the main groups of consumers: invertebrates, fishes and other vertebrates. Information on concepts and paradigms developed in north-temperate latitudes and how they do not match the reality of ecosystems further south is expertly addressed. The pressing matter of conservation of tropical streams and their biodiversity is included in almost every chapter, with a final chapter providing a synthesis on conservation issues. For the first time, Tropical Stream Ecology places an important emphasis on viewing research carried out in contributions from international literature. - First synthetic account of the ecology of all types of tropical streams - Covers all of the major tropical regions - Detailed consideration of possible fundamental differences between tropical and temperate stream ecosystems - Threats faced by tropical stream ecosystems and possible conservation actions - Descriptions and synstheses life-histories and breeding patterns of major aquatic consumers (fishes, invertebrates)

Languages : en
Pages : 843
Book Description
This book deals with the ecology of rivers and streams in the Oriental Region, and describes the composition of their unique fauna - especially the diverse array of animals which live on and among the bottom sediments. Dichotomous keys are provided as an aid to the identification of these animals, and the book is illustrated by over 100 pages of line drawings and maps. Special emphasis is given to the impact of human activities on streams and rivers, and the book concludes with a discussion of conservation and management options for these endangered habitats.
