While these concentrations might not be deemed harmful to humans, non-target freshwater organisms could be affected by them. Bioassays show that some of the antibiotics found in surface waters affect microbes at concentrations below 10 μg/L. Among the most potent antibiotics are those that prev...
Pesticide-induced effects on ecosystem functions are driven by changes in the abundance and community composition of functional groups of organisms. For instance, herbicides reduced respiration and primary productivity by decreasing the abundance of phytoplankton, a bottom-up effect. Insecticides increased ...

The most powerful of these methods, involving multivariate methods, such as PCA (principal components analysis) and MDS (myelodysplastic syndromes) have proven to be more sensitive to detecting pollution than univariate methods (Etaon, 2001, Gotz and Lauer, 2003, Mouser et al., 2005). Seasonal ...
Three major types of pollution of freshwater are: (i) excess of nutrients from sewage and soil erosion causing algae blooms, (ii) pathogens from sewage which spread disease, and (iii) heavy metals and organic compounds which bio-accumulate in aquatic organisms. ...
Freshwater lakes have less flow than rivers, and are therefore harder to dilute. Other causes of pollution in freshwater lakes are human-introduced plants, which drain oxygen from the water, grow, and block out sunlight. This lack of oxygen and sunlight in lakes can cause the death of some ...
