We compared the stream habitat characteristics and macroinvertebrate assemblages of boreal headwater streams in both the Finnish and the Russian parts of a single river basin, the Koitajoki River. Over the last 50 years, the Finnish side of the catchment has been managed using modern forestry techniques, whereas Russian side has remained nearly unexploited and is near to its natural state. Differences in silvicultural activities were observed to contribute to differences in habitat structure. The channel habitats were in fairly natural state in the Russian reference streams, whereas the impacted Finnish sites were cleared and straightened. In comparison with the impacted channels, the abundance of coarse woody debris (CWD) was 10–100-fold higher in the reference streams. Implications on the forestry-induced deterioration of water quality were also observed. On the contrary, only small differences in macroinvertebrate assemblages were detected. Despite the lower amount of retentive structures (CWD), significantly higher relative abundance of shredders was observed in the forestry-impacted streams. Otherwise the zoobenthic communities were quite similar in the two subcatchments. We suggest that several mechanisms may explain this similarity: (1) community structure is controlled by naturally acidic conditions, (2) the adverse impacts of forestry on habitat structure and water quality of streams may be compensated by increased input of deciduous litter and organic compounds from drained, structurally young riparian forests and (3) macroinvertebrate species have flexible feeding habits and may thus readily adapt to changing conditions. 相似文献

Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii undergoes characteristic morphological changes during its annual population development. Primary filaments (those that derive directly from the akinetes) possess the following morphological features: the trichomes have one or two acuminate ends; they are narrower (2.4–2.6 μm) tfhan older filaments, their lengths vary in a wide range (from 40 to 300 μm); some of them are straight but others are slightly coiled even in populations that later consist exclusively of straight filaments; cell walls between the cells are not or only hardly visible; the filaments have a fine granulation but no gas-vacuoles, polyphosphate- or any other contrasting bodies are seen. The secondary filaments deriving from the first division of primary filaments are similar but with only one acuminate end. This way, the number of germinating akinetes can be estimated as the number of primary filaments + 1/2 number of secondary filaments. The described morphological method to estimate inoculum size of C. raciborskii has limitations. (1) The number of akinetes that we get in this way is only a minimum number since germination is not synchronous under field conditions and probably not each akinete germinates that is present in the sediments. (2) The method is applicable only if germination occurs suddenly (relatively synchronously). This is often the case in a temperate region where germination is triggered by temperature. (3) The method cannot be used in tropical or subtropical lakes where water temperature is permanently rather high and akinetes do not develop or develop only very rarely. (4) Being an a posteriori method it cannot be used as predictive tool. Estimations for Lake Balaton are in a good agreement with results of studies with other methods (germination in laboratory cultures and direct counting) and have the advantage that they do not need time-consuming experimenting or difficult direct countings. 相似文献

The efficiency of different methods for sampling semipelagic animals was compared in the deep basins of Lake Paasivesi and Lake Puruvesi of the complex Lake Saimaa, Finland, during 1990–92. Certain semipelagic animals, such as Mysis relicta, amphipods and larvae of Chaoborus fiavicans, are important bioindicators of water and benthic quality. However, owing to their high mobility and vertical migrations they are difficult to sample quantitatively with traditional benthic methods. The equipment used for sampling was comprised of:
- Vertical nets (0.56 and 0.13 m2) placed on the bottom for 5 minutes or 12 hours and hauled up vertically.
- Plexiglass traps placed on the bottom for 12–14 hours.
- Mysis-trawl hauled horizontally c. 250–300 metres on the bottom.
- Ekman-grab.
