Breeding waterbird species as ecological indicators of shifts from turbid to clear water conditions in northwest European shallow eutrophic lakes
We used biological and physical responses at 71 shallow waterbodies with contrasting nutrient levels undergoing recovery from eutrophication to...

Dynamics of Higher Aquatic Vegetation of Protected Shallow Water in Relation to Water-Level Regime in the Volga Reach of the Rybinsk Reservoir
AbstractChanges in the higher aquatic vegetation (HAV) of the protected shallow water “Krasnyi Ruchei” from 1989 to 2019 have been analyzed based on...

Environmental drivers of species richness in shallow-water gorgonians (Cnidaria: Anthozoa) from the Eastern Tropical Pacific Ocean
Species richness, defined as the number of species within a specific area, exhibits spatial variation at most spatial scales. The drivers behind...

Nutrient-rich sediment promotes, while fertile water inhibits the growth of the submerged macrophyte Vallisneria denseserrulata: implications for shallow lake restoration
Submerged macrophytes are crucial for the restoration of shallow eutrophic lake but they are diminished in coverage or lost with eutrophication....

Fatty acid analysis reveals variations in the diet of shallow-water spionids (Annelida: Polychaeta: Spionidae)
The fatty acid (FA) composition of spionids co-occurring in shallow water and occupying various habitats was analyzed to characterize spectrum and...

Spring and autumn rotifer community structure differentiates shallow water bodies in two European ecoregions: Poland and Croatia
Rotifer structure may serve as predictor of environmental features, including temperate subclimates between water bodies. The difference in latitude...
