The use of surface flow (SFCWs) and subsurface flow constructed wetlands (SFCWs) for the treatment of combined sewer overflows was assessed at pilot scale. Synthetic wastewater was applied in three batches with decreasing concentrations to mimic concentration profiles that are obtained in the field...
In our study, lakeside wetlands indicated seasonally flooded areas, which meant that open water was excluded from wetland as a single part. Land Use Dynamic Index Land use dynamic index (LUDI) expresses the quantity of change in a specific land cover category during a certain period of time ...
A distinction among three upland forests and between forested and lowland wetlands could be important, too. The difference in aggregated values of net ecosystem-atmospheric exchange of CO2 with the watershed function classification scheme and with the stand-type level classification scheme can reach ...
This is attributable to the different breeding strategies of C. urophthalmus populations inhabiting these two types of cenotes. In particular, the ichthyofauna from the two wetlands showed not only higher species richness (17 and 16 species) but also a higher number of potential predators (nine...
