Do benthic algae provide important information over and above that provided by macrophytes and phytoplankton in lake status assessment? – Results from a case study in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)To test if phytobenthic algae provide additional important information to macrophytes and phytoplankton for lake monitoring, we sampled two large lakes in Norway. In each lake, we analyzed water chemistry and phytoplankton ... -
Ecological condition, biodiversity and major environmental challenges in a tropical river network in the Bago District nin South-central Myanmar: first insights to the unknown.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Freshwater ecosystems in the Indo-Burma biodiversity hotspot face immediate threats through habitat loss and species extinction. Systems to monitor ecological status and trends in biodiversity are therefore crucially needed. ... -
Eutrophication impacts littoral biota in Lake Ohrid while water phosphorus concentrations are low
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Eutrophication has traditionally been measured as increased phosphorus concentrations. In some lakes, however, such as transboundary Lake Ohrid situated between Macedonia and Albania, pelagic phosphorus concentrations are ... -
Greener rivers in a changing climate?—Effects of climate and hydrological regime on benthic algal assemblages in pristine streams
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Excessive biomass development of benthic algae is often considered undesirable, but understanding the causes is confounded by complex interactions among driving factors. Pristine rivers allow a benchmark where human ... -
The importance of aquatic macrophytes in a eutrophic tropical shallow lake
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Inlay Lake is the second largest natural lake in Myanmar. Located in Shan State, in the eastern part of the country, it is a known biodiversity hotspot. The lake is negatively affected by an increasing local human population ... -
Macroinvertebrate communities along the main stem and tributaries of a pre-Alpine river: composition responds to altitude, richness does not
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)We collected quantitative macroinvertebrate samples and measured environmental and geographical parameters at 13 sites: six along the main stem and seven in tributaries close to the main channel over a 700 m gradient in ... -
Microcystis, Raphidiopsis raciborskii and Dolichospermum smithii, toxin producing and non-toxigenic cyanobacteria in Yezin Dam, Myanmar
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Yezin Dam is a man-made reservoir located close to Yezin village in Myanmar. Its water is used for irrigation, domestic purposes and as drinking water for many urban communities in the watershed area. In recent years, ...
