Many researchers have used the species composition, relative abundance and distribution pattern of profundal benthic macroinvertebrate communities in particular, especially chironomid fauna, as indicators of the trophic state and pollution of lakes....
The global transition towards renewable energy production has increased the demand for new and more flexible hydropower operations. Although hydropower is generally considered environmentally friendly, it can cause environmental and social impacts. A...
The Mangalia–Limanu coastal lake system, located in southeastern Romania along the Black Sea, represents a transitional aquatic environment shaped by the interplay between freshwater and marine influences. This study provides an integrated asse...
Water is a vital resource for human survival, economic development, and environmental sustainability. It is essential to agriculture, energy production, public health, and biodiversity preservation. Efficient water management is even more important i...
In 2023, studies were conducted on volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from the bottom sediments of the mid-forest eutrophic lake. Lake Łętowskie is located in northern Poland and covers an area of 402 hectares. It is part of the &ldq...
The growth of the human population, combined with climate change, has made the provisioning of water resources to human populations one of the greatest challenges of recent decades. One commonly adopted solution has been the construction of small dam...
Access to clean water remains a global challenge, particularly in areas where populations rely on surface water. These water sources must be treated. Coagulation with chemicals causes environmental problems and adverse effects on human health. Natura...
Most studies on microplastic pollution in aquatic ecosystems have focused on the quantitative and qualitative assessment of particles in surface waters. However, the highest concentrations and accumulation of microplastic particles are observed in bo...
Different sampling techniques were evaluated to assess potential differences in species richness and the abundances of phytoplankton across several lowland aquatic environments. Five sampling methods were used, including a bucket, narrow- and wide-mo...
Access to clean drinking water is crucial for any region’s social and economic growth. However, rapid urbanization and industrialization have significantly deteriorated water quality, posing severe pollution threats from domestic, agricultural,...
