(Polygonum amphibium), water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes),water dropwort(Oenanthe javanica), Indian mustard roots, sunflower etc. have been successfully evaluated for phytoremediation capability (Ma et al., 2001; Wang et al., 2002; Kidd and Monterroso, 2005; Verma et al., 2016;). The ...
In most instances, hypereutrophic condition is indicated not only by the prevalence of phytoplankton but also by large covers of certain aquatic plants (e.g., water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms), duckweed (Spirodela intermedia W. Koch) or hornwort (Ceratophyllum demersum L.) (...
The many functions of wetlands include contributing to the life cycle of plants and animals, by providing habitat, food, nesting sites and shelter for many wildlife species (Nayak and Bhushan2022). They also moderate climate changes, act as CO2sinks, dampen the effect of waves and store flood...
To elucidate water hyacinth鈥搇ittoral zooplankton鈥損lanktivorous fish interactions, we conducted habitat choice experiments in the absence and presence of fish chemical cues (kairomones) for two tropical littoral cladocerans,Chydorus brevilabrisandSimocephalus vetulus. We classified habitat selection as ...

Additionally, the use of water plants that are native to the area could be introduced into the pond to supply oxygen via photosynthesis such as water hyacinths. 4.3. Removal of human pathogens in PHS Although the relative abundance of potential bacterial human health pathogens was low in the ...
The taxa responsible for this dominance were not the same in all reservoirs, emphasizing the role of local habitat factors on community composition and biodiversity (confirmation of the first hypothesis). The two β diversity indices emphasize complementary aspects in the temporal succession of taxa. ...
Natural vegetation, such as riparian vegetation, can act as an important habitat for a variety of species and can trap sediments and pollutants in water. Therefore, alterations in the natural vegetation affect the ecosystem services provided by the streams, which are important for reducing flood ...
