Effects of hexavalent chromium on phytoplankton and bacterioplankton of the Río de la Plata estuary: an ex-situ assay
(Springer, 2018-04)
We examined the responses of the phytoplankton and the bacterioplankton of the freshwater zone of the Río de la Plata estuary when exposed to an addition of hexavalent chromium (Cr+6). The planktonic community from a coastal ...
Reynolds Functional Groups: a trait-based pathway from patterns to predictions
(Springer, 2020-07-21)
Reynolds Functional Groups (RFG) were designed to represent the diversity of phytoplankton assemblages of freshwater ecosystems and are among the most enduring legacies of C. S. Reynolds to freshwater phytoplankton ecologists. ...
Short-term variability in the phytoplankton and physico-chemical variables in a high-tidal regime, Bahía Blanca Estuary, Argentina
(Instituto Oceanográfico, 2009-12)
Hydrological processes such as advection, resuspension, estuarine circulation, internal waves, tidal stirring, vertical mixing and stratification are the main physical forces affecting the phytoplankton distribution ...
Temporal variability of chlorophyll-a in the São Vicente estuary
(Universidade de São Paulo, Instituto Oceanográfico, 2012)
Estuaries are extremely dynamic environments that are vulnerable to anthropogenic alterations. Thus, monitoring phytoplankton abundances and composition is an essential tool for the prediction of eutrophication and its ...
Changes in phytoplankton composition in response to tides, wind-induced mixing conditions, and freshwater outflows in an urbanised estuarine complex
(Instituto Internacional de EcologiaSÃO CARLOS, 2012)
Recent reports have shown an increase in potentially harmful phytoplankton in Santos bay (Southeastern Brazilian Coast), located in a highly urbanised estuarine complex. Prediction of blooms is, thus, essential but the ...
Incidence of phytoplankton and environmental conditions on the bacterial ammonium uptake in a subtropical coastal lagoon
(2014)
We analyzed the coupling between bacterioplankton and phytoplankton in Laguna de Rocha through an experimental approach. A freshwater zone of high turbidity and macrophytes growth and a brackish zone of higher light ...
Phytoplankton of the Río de la Plata estuary
(E Schweizerbartsche Verlags, 2014)
The Río de la Plata is an extensive, shallow, and microtidal coastal-plain estuary on the east coast of South America. The river receives freshwater from South America’s second largest watershed. The main tributaries are ...
Dinâmica espacial da comunidade fitoplanctônica de uma represa subtropical
(Universidade Tecnológica Federal do ParanáDois VizinhosBrasilLicenciatura em Ciências BiológicasUTFPR, 2019-07-01)
Phytoplankton comprises microscopic photosynthetic organisms that inhabit the water column of various continental and marine aquatic environments. These organisms have great environmental importance, since they are primary ...
Microplastics and freshwater microalgae: what do we know so far?
(2021-06-01)
The constant entry of microplastics in several environmental matrices has been of great concern to the scientific community and to society in general, mainly due to the mysteries that surround the implications of this ...
Potential distribution of the invasive freshwater dinoflagellate Ceratium furcoides (Levander) Langhans (Dinophyta) in South America
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-02)
Dinoflagellates of the genus Ceratium are predominantly found in marine environments, with a few species in inland waters. Over the last decades, the freshwater species Ceratium hirundinella and Ceratium furcoides have ...
