DOI: 10.1016/j.aaf.2019.04.001
Abstract: Abstract Previous studies have found differences between communities of benthic macroinvertebrates living in constructed tidal flats compared with natural ones. We analyzed the distributional characteristics of benthic macroinvertebrates in a blowing sand reclamation area (Area… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2019.06.037
Abstract: Selenium (Se) is a contaminant of concern in many aquatic ecosystems due to its narrow range between essentiality and toxicity in oviparous (yolk-bearing) vertebrates. The objective of the present study was to determine the effects… read more here.

DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.4198980
Abstract: Reservoirs are aquatic ecosystems created by humans to supply water needs. They can impair aquatic diversity due to the lack of connectivity, reduced water volume, and pressures exerted by surrounding human activities. These changes are… read more here.

DOI: 10.4236/aim.2021.113012
Abstract: As increases in anthropogenic eutrophication and climate change contribute to more severe and frequent cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms in freshwater ecosystems worldwide, understanding the effects and consequences cyanobacterial blooms have on aquatic organisms is crucial.… read more here.
