The tadpoles used in this experiment feed primarily on periphyton by scraping the surfaces of tank walls and leaves. |
|
Significant effects of gizzard shad access likely occurred due to the additional surface area provided for periphyton by the mesh netting. |
|
A spongy, Dijon-colored city of algae and microscopic creatures that floats on the surface, periphyton cleanses the Everglades of excess nutrients and pollutants. |
|
We must protect the periphyton of marine organisms now in order to preserve all species. |
|
This increased force could permit wood frog tadpoles to scrape a type of periphyton that is more resistant to harvest or to harvest periphyton more efficiently. |
|
Even in case of good aquarium care, slight periphyton growth on the aquarium glass cannot be completely avoided. |
|
Biological measures include habitat characteristics, fish and invertebrate communities, and periphyton algae. |
|
Main primary producer communities in central Amazonian floodplain ecosystems are trees, terrestrial and aquatic herbaceous plants, phytoplankton, and periphyton. |
|
Methylmercury is hydrophobic and binds readily with mineral and organic particles suspended in the water, and with plankton, periphyton and insects living at the water-sediment interface. |
|
Abundance of periphyton on the rocks in the littoral of the lake. |
|
Systems of production to be implemented will be hyper-intensive in three phases, with optimized production through the use of domesticated periphyton to improve nutrition patterns as well as water quality. |
|
Interactions among phytoplankton, periphyton and macrophytes in temperate freshwaters and estuaries. |
|
In comparison to proposed trophic state indices for periphyton, mesotrophic or eutrophic conditions were indicated at four of 11 sites. |
|
Effects of grazing and nutrient supply on periphyton biomass and nutrient stoichiometry in habitats of different productivity. |
|
Stability of periphyton and macroinvertebrates to disturbance by flash floods in a desert stream. |
|
Furthermore, the presence of inorganic nutrients and sunlight can stimulate the growth of periphyton, which serves as a food source for shredders and scrapers. |

Impacts of Nonpoint-Source Pollution on the Diatom Assemblage, Periphyton Characteristics, and Algae Growth in the West Fork of the Red River in North-Central Tennessee. |
