Abstract:
... Specimens of Salmo trutta (n = 613) captured by local anglers in different rivers in Galicia (NW Spain) during the 2015 fishing season (15 March–15 August) were examined. In total 1479 adult helminths were recovered from the gastrointestinal tracts of 221 fish. Moreover, the microscopic observation of the sediments obtained, previous diphasic concentration, revealed the presence of helminth eggs i ...
... The increase in temperature due to global warming greatly affects the toxicity produced by pesticides in the aquatic ecosystem. Studies investigating the effects of such environmental stress factors on next generations are important in terms of the sustainability of ecosystems. In this study, the effects of parental synergistic exposure to glyphosate and temperature increase on the next generation ...

Abstract:
... Total suspended matter concentration (CTSM) is an important parameter in aquatic ecosystem studies. Compared with multispectral satellite images, the Advanced Hyperspectral Imager (AHSI) carried by the ZY1-02D satellite can capture finer spectral features, and the potential for CTSM retrieval is enormous. In this study, we selected seven typical Chinese inland water bodies as the study areas, and ...

Abstract:
... Due to the extensive use of nanoparticles (NPs) in various fields since the last decade, the concentration of nanoparticles in the water bodies has increased immensely. In the aquatic environment, algae-bacteria symbiotic relationship is present and useful to ensure the basic functioning of the aquatic ecosystem. There is a high possibility of toxicity of NPs to algae-bacteria consortium. In the p ...

Abstract:
... Nowadays, the extensive application of microplastics (MPs) has led to the gradual accumulation of toxicity in aquatic environment and caused potential harm to aquatic organisms and human life, which has become a hot issue of worldwide concern. Although MPs show inert or sublethal toxicity in many cases, its long-term existence can still cause harmful ecological effects. However, to our knowledge, ...

Abstract:
... With the rapid emergence of various metabolic and multiple-drug-resistant infectious diseases, new pharmaceuticals are continuously being introduced in the market. The excess production and use of pharmaceuticals and their untreated/unmetabolized release in the environment cause the contamination of aquatic ecosystem, and thus, compromise the environment and human-health. The present review provid ...

Abstract:
... Although social-ecological fisheries research is growing, comparatively little attention is paid to fisheries in urban environments. We aim to address this imbalance, because as cities expand worldwide, we expect urban fisheries to become more widespread and important in providing food/nutrition security, recreation, community well-being, and other benefits to fisheries stakeholders and urban dwel ...

Abstract:
... A major apprehension is over microplastic pollution in the aquatic environment. These microplastics particles represent a novel medium in the aquatic environment, providing a substratum for various organic contaminants and for colonization of microorganisms. Microorganisms form a biofilm on the exterior of pollutants, consequential in a region known as a plastisphere, in which they interrelate and ...

Hyperspectral remote sensing reflectance (Rrs) derived from PRISMA in the visible and infrared range was evaluated for two inland and coastal water sites using above-water in situ reflectance measurements from autonomous hyper- and multispectral radiometer systems. We compared the Level 2D (L2D) surface reflectance, a standard product distributed by the Italian Space Agency (ASI), as well as outpu ...

In the present study, a hybrid photocatalyst of Zn/Ti layered double hydroxide (LDH) coupled with MXene – Ti₃C₂ was synthesized for the first time and applied in photocatalytic degradation of acetaminophen and ibuprofen, two commonly present in the natural environment and prone to accumulate in the aquatic ecosystem pharmaceuticals. The effect of MXene content (0.5 wt%, 2.5 wt%, and 5 wt%) on the ...

... Micro(nano)plastics (MNPs) have sparked growing public and scientific concerns as emerging pollutants in recent decades, due to their small size and potential for significant ecological and human health impacts. Understanding the toxicological effects of MNPs on aquatic organisms is of great importance; however, most of the available research on aquatic organisms has focused on the pelagic organis ...

Abstract:
... Danjiangkou reservoir is the water intake of the north-to-south water transfer middle route project and the largest freshwater lake in Asia. According to the operation mode of the reservoir, a large area is formed in the alternating state of drying-flooding annually and this may cause eutrophication in the aquatic ecosystem. The effects of drying-flooding alteration on nitrogen fluxes in the hydro ...
