متن کاملOpportunistic macroalgae metrics for transitional waters. Testing tools to assess ecological quality status in Portugal.
Macroalgae communities constitute one of the ecological quality elements for the evaluation of the ecological quality status (EQS) of coastal and transitional waters, required to implement the WFD. While these algae are natural components of estuarine systems and play important roles in several estuarine processes, macroalgal blooms are of ecological concern because they can reduce the habitat ...
متن کاملInland Waters of Samothraki Island (Greece): Exploratory Ecological Assessment
Samothraki is a northern Aegean island with poorly studied inland waters. River features show a high degree of naturalness; lotic, lentic and riparian conditions exhibit significant perennial flows with waterfalls, pools and ancient riparian woodlands. In this study, we document surface and ground water quality status based on recent field observations, data collection and analyses. The island ...

متن کاملEcological status assessment of Skalenski Lakes (Bulgaria)
Over the past decade new ecological indices based on phytoplankton and macrophytes were developed as part of the tools for assessment of the ecological status of water bodies. This study demonstrates the applicability of two of them (Assemblage index /Q/ and Algae Group Index /AGI/) for evaluation of water bodies from a lake type L4 as well as their comparability. Assessment of the ecological s...
