1. A fundamental goal of ecological network research is to understand how the complexity observed in nature can persist and how this affects ecosystem functioning. This is essential for us to be able to predict, and eventually mitigate, the consequences of increasing environmental perturbations s...
A minimum value in the Dissolved Oxygen distribution of two shallow lakes namely, Rabindra Sarobar in south Kolkata and Subhas Sarobar in East Kolkata in the Gangetic Delta plain, has been observed to develop in the Hypolimnion during the stratified period. This minimum is usually explained by th...

Limnological Comparisons of Threats to Aquatic Life Owing to Thermal Stratification in two Morphometrically Different Urban Shallow Lakes
Temperature drives the major physico-chemical and biological actions in inland water bodies. The higher the water temperature, the greater the biogeochemical activity influenced by the environmental intrinsic and extrinsic parameters. Temperature also controls the dynamics of sustainability of va...

Estuarine mangroves give natural support to the protection of the riverbanks, due to their
accumulative nature. To study this effect, it is necessary to measure sedimentation rates under
estuarine mangroves. Sediment plays an important role in the storage and release of nutrient into the
water co...
Los cuerpos de agua de Chile se caracterizan por la presencia de tramas tróficas sencillas (De los Ríos-Escalante, 2003) y un bajo número de especies zooplanctonicas, siendo dominante los copépodos calanoideos, específicamente los géneros Boeckella y Tumeodiaptomus, ocurriendo el proceso contrari...
Arundo donax L. es una gramínea altamente invasora, originaria de Asia y que está presente en Chile. El presente trabajo reporta nuevos registros de presencia para la especie en las regiones de O´higgins, Maule y Biobío. Se incluye una descripción morfológica y del habitat de la planta.
Arundo donax L. is a highly invasive grass, native of Asia and is present in Chile. This paper reports a new records of the specie in the regions of O'higgins, Maule and Biobío. A morphological and habitat description of the plant is included.

Different hydro climatic conditions at and above a continental shelf have significant effects on the ecology of the environment (temperature, nutrient richness and pelagic production). Indeed, bioclimatic changes defined clearly reflects the prevailing conditions imposed above the continental she...
Los humedales son considerados los ecosistemas de mayor riqueza biológica del planeta, destacándose por su gran productividad y biodiversidad (Kusler et al. 1994; Innis et al. 2000), los cuales otorgan variadas funciones como la contribución en los ciclos de vida de plantas y animales, hábitat, a...
