Species found associated with these mangroves because of their location adjacent to tropical forests and because of high freshwater input include the tropical forest species, leguminosae vine (Dalbergia brownei), and Apocynaceae liana (Rhabdadenia biflora); freshwater macrophytes, Araceae Montrichardia arborescens, and Leguminosae Mora oleifera; and palm species, Euterpe oleracea and Orbygnia martiana. ❋ Unknown (2007)
While the potential northern limit for emergent aquatic macrophytes is not fully known, their projected increased presence will clearly influence the overall productivity and structural complexity of arctic pond and lake habitats. ❋ Unknown (2009)
Preserved remains of aquatic organisms, such as algae and macrophytes, provide additional information on aquatic ecosystem characteristics and lake-level status. ❋ Unknown (2009)
While the dam flooded what was previously the town of Arenal, it also created new life: there are more than 35 species of zooplankton, 14 species of macrophytes and 37 species of fish, predominantly cichlids and livebearers. ❋ Unknown (2009)
The banded sculpin and slender madtom occur in small streams, especially where aquatic macrophytes are present, and the southern redbelly dace inhabits headwaters. ❋ Unknown (2009)
For this reason, they are exclusively associated with the substrate, or aquatic macrophytes where they live a somewhat secretive existence. ❋ Unknown (2008)
To the south, conductance and macrophytes in the lakes tend to increase. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The most significant macrophytes are Paspalum sp., ❋ Unknown (2008)
The lakes tend to have abundant macrophytes or are green with algae. ❋ Unknown (2008)
They are mainly nocturnal foragers; their diet consists mainly of macrophytes and debris, but they also eat small insects and crustaceans as well as dead animal matter. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Some of the higher nutrient lakes may lack macrophytes. ❋ Unknown (2008)
They are usually free of emergent vegetation, but floating, aquatic macrophytes may be present. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Aquatic multicellular macrophytes include macroalgae (the green algae in the family Characeae), non-vascular plants (e.g., mosses), or vascular plants (the flowering plants). ❋ Unknown (2008)
Its diversity is relatively high: with 30 species of submerged and floating aquatic macrophytes. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The combination of high rainfall with high freshwater input from an extensive river system results in mangrove vegetation is found in association with palms and freshwater macrophytes. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Aquatic macrophytes may be classified as emergent (e.g., cattails), free-floating (e.g. water lilies), or submerged macrophytes. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Species found associated with these mangroves because of their location adjacent to tropical forests and because of high freshwater input include the tropical forest species, leguminosae vine (Dalbergia brownei), and Apocynaceae liana (Rhabdadenia biflora) as well as freshwater macrophytes, Araceae Montrichardia arborescens, and Leguminosae Mora oleifera; and palm species, Euterpe oleracea and Orbygnia martiana. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The principal emergent macrophytes in the seasonally exposed shallows are the grasses Paspalidium geminatum and Sporobolus spicatus. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The three main types of aquatic plants are (1) single-celled phytoplankton, (2) periphyton (algae growing attached to substrates) and (3) multicellular macrophytes. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Their surface is free of vegetation except for aquatic macrophytes. ❋ Unknown (2008)
