In the 1870's the beaver (Castor fiber), population in Sweden had been exterminated. Thebeaver was reintroduced to Sweden from the Norwegian population between 1922 and 1939.Today the population has recovered and it is estimated that the population of C. fiber in all ofEurope today ranges around 639,000 individuals. The main aim with this study was toinvestigate if there was any difference in species diversity between sites located upstream anddownstream of beaver ponds.

The term hydropeaking refers to anthropogenically induced, short-duration, high-magnitude discharge pulses that are generated in lotic systems for electricity production. The practice of hydropeaking produces the largest source of renewable energy worldwide, and its use is projected to increase through the year 2040. The primary objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of hydropeaking on benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages, which are important components of lotic ecosystems.

Acid mine drainage (AMD) results from the oxidation of pyretic mineralogy, exposed by mining operations to oxygen and water. This reaction produces sulfuric acid and liberates heavy metals from the surrounding mineralogy and impairs water quality and freshwater communities. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has begun an ecosystem restoration project to remediate the abandoned mine land (AML) impacts to the North Fork Powell River (NFP) and is utilizing the ecotoxicological rating (ETR) system to delineate these affects to focus restoration efforts. The ETR was developed to summarize the integra

Bioassessment is the concept of evaluating the ecological condition of habitats by surveying the resident assemblages of living organisms. Conducting bioassessment with benthic macroinvertebrates is still evolving and continues to be refined. There are strongly divided opinions about study design, sampling methods, laboratory analyses, and data analysis. Two issues that are currently being debated about study design for bioassessment in streams were examined here: 1) what habitats within streams should be sampled; 2) and is it necessary to identify organisms to the species level? The influence

The Ebro Delta-Estuary complex is one of the largest wetland areas in the western Mediterranean, and it is considered one of the most important estuarine zones in Europe. In 2013, the Ebro watershed, including its deltaic plain, was declared World Biosphere Reserve by the UNESCO. Due to its singularity, a total of 7.736 ha of Delta are protected under the Spanish Natural Park figure (including coastal lagoons, freshwater springs, bays and adjacent coastline) which stands out by its faunal (mainly, ornithological and ichthyological) and halophilic floral composition. The Ebro River flows into t

This study tested two key assumptions in developing regional biocriteria: (1) the accuracy of the ecoregion classification framework and (2) the accuracy of standardized qualitative sampling. Except for the Central Appalachians ecoregion, there was little or no correspondence of benthic macroinvertebrate distribution with the ecoregions or subregions of western Virginia. I found that it was more accurate to rearrange the subregions into three larger regions called bioregions: the forested hills and mountains (subregion 69a), valleys and plateaus (subregions 66c, 67a, and 67b), and the mountain

Urbanisation of catchment areas is a major cause of freshwater ecosystem degradation worldwide. As catchments become more developed and river ecosystems become increasingly engulfed in various land use activities, there is a growing need to understand these impacts on freshwater ecosystems. Benthic macroinvertebrates are extensively used as indicators of ecosystem health and have been an instrumental tool in ecosystem monitoring and management. The effects of changing land use on macroinvertebrates at a fine scale however, have not been extensively investigated. Therefore an investigation was
