Consumers are often overlooked as key drivers of vegetation structure and ecosystem functioning in coastal wetlands. This oversight is particularly apparent Asia, where much the variation wetland plant growth composition attributed to physical stress gradients. To address this knowledge gap quantify relative importance consumers Asian wetlands across temporal environmental stress, we conducted ...

Remediation of the City of Zagreb Jakusevec Dump Site, one of the largest dump sites in Europe, is in progress. Experimental laboratory results of leach­ ate treatment using aquatic macrophytes show that increasing the concentra­ tion of ammonia in the leachate decreases elimination efficiency. In all series of experiments, significantly greater elimination of ammonia and orthophos­ phates has ...

Accumulation of heavy metals from various oxides with adsorbed cadmium by wetland plant Phragmites australis was studied to evaluate the fate of heavy metals in the sediment of constructed wetlands. Hoagland solution was used as nutrition supply, and single metal oxide with adsorbed cadmium was applied as contaminant to study the accumulation characteristics of cadmium and the substrate metals ...

Invasive plant species are an increasing worldwide threat both ecologically and financially. Knowing the location of these invasive infestations is first step in their control. Surveying for Phragmites australis particularly challenging due to limited accessibility wetland environments. Unoccupied aircraft systems (UAS) a popular choice management ability survey environments high spatial tempor...
