Free-living nematodes in the freshwater food web: a review.
Free-living nematodes are well-recognized as an abundant and ubiquitous component of benthic communities in inland waters. Compelling evidence from soil and marine ecosystems has highlighted the importance of nematodes as trophic intermediaries between microbial production and higher trophic levels. However, the paucity of empirical evidence of their role in freshwater ecosystems has hampered t...
متن کاملPredicting Biochemical Oxygen Demand As Indicator Of River Pollution Using Artificial Neural Networks
Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) are frequently used to predict various ecological processes and phenomenon related to water resources. Various ANN applications involve the prediction of water quality using various environmental parameters. This paper discusses the use of two environmental data sets from two sampling sites, merged together and applied to forecasting a dependent variable, namel...
متن کاملBiochemical changes of Conocarpus erectus (combretaceae) in response to gas refinery air pollution as an air pollution indicator
Environmental pollution consists of different types of pollutants in air, soil, and water. Due to the fact that plants can respond to environmental pollution, they can be used as bio-indicators for environmental monitoring. Air pollution in areas with oil and gas refineries nearby is an important problem. This study aims to survey the effects of gas refinery air pollutants on Conocarpus erectus...

متن کاملSurface sediment properties and heavy metal pollution assessment in the Pearl River Estuary, China
Grain size and concentrations of heavy metals (arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), mercury (Hg), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn)) of 148 surface sediments and activities of 210Pb and heavy metal concetrantions of one sediment core from the Pearl River Estuary were analyzed. The surface sediments were dominated by silt and sandy silt. Sediment type controlled the spatial distributio...
