Wetland pollution due to inputs from crude oil is one of the most prevalent environmental problems facing the aquatic ecosystem in the world. The present study was intended to investigate the effectiveness of combination of cow lumen and NPK fertilizer in stimulating the degradation of crude oil polluted fresh water wet land. Soil samples were collected from unpolluted plots, crude oil polluted plots and crude oil polluted plots that were treated with the remediating agents. After fifteen days and sixty days of remediation, the soil samples were analysed for pH, electrical conductivity (E.C), phosphate, PO3- 4, phosphorous, P, % organic carbon, % total nitrogen N, carbon/nitrogen ratio and total petroleum hydrocarbon, TPH. The result indicates that combination of the inorganic and organic manure was more efficient in stimulating the degradation of the crude oil than the use of either the cow lumen or NPK fertilizer alone. The physiochemical properties of the soil in all the treated plots were observed to have been improved when compared with that of the untreated plots.
Wide patches of fruiting Carex pulicaris L. (subatlantic element in Polish flora) were found in the Myrico-Salicetum sphagnetosum Pass. 1961 var. Molinia caerulea association, within the wetland area in Western Pomerania (Poland). Field observations included measurements of ground-waters, reaction of soil and seasonally stagnant waters, the height of Molinia caerulea tufts and also floral and phytosociological observations. Microhabitats of Carex pulicaris were tufts formed both by dead and living parts of Molinia caerulea. Artificially regulated level of inundation waters of local rivers had influence on site conditions suitable for Carex pulicaris. Distribution of Carex pulicaris within the area of investigations was connected with Molinia caerulea occurrence.
This paper is aimed to assess the impact of climate change on water regime of wetland in the area of Poiplie Ramsar site. To simulate the climate change the CGCM3.1 global model (SRES A2 pessimistic scenario and SRES B1 optimistic scenario) and KNMI and MPI regional models were selected as the most appropriate. For the 20-year reference period the years 1977–1996 was chosen, which is within the evaluation compared with the 20-year time horizons 2020, 2050 and 2080. Simulation of soil water regime was carried out using the GLOBAL model. Within the soil water regime evaluation actual evapotranspiration was evaluated in this paper. Actual evapotranspiration has in the future in the studied area also increasing course over the reference period, while the SRES A2 pessimistic scenario expected the increase of 24%, KNMI regional model the increase of 21% and SRES B1 optimistic scenario and MPI regional model the increase of 19%. The development of actual evapotranspiration is derived from the predicted increase in air temperature and precipitation. On the base of these results the ongoing climate change does not cause dramatic changes in Poiplie Ramsar site, thereby this unique wetland ecosystem should be preserved in the future.
The study is based on the avian community observed in the region. In total, 524 individuals, 27 genera and 35 species of birds belonging to 21 families have been recorded. Among them, the family Charadriidae with 15.08% incidence is the most frequent; immediately followed by the family Scolopacidae (11.26% of occurence). The highest observed species richness has been observed in case of the family Ardeidae. Little Ringed Plover (Charadrius dubius) is the most abundant avian species observed. The community consists of 40% Resident; 40% Resident-migrant and 20% Migrant bird species. It was observed that the concerned community shows a considerable diversity and a corresponding low value of dominance. In the feeding guild analysis, the Insectivore and the Aquatic invertebrate-feeder guilds have the most number of recorded avian species. The feeding guild affiliations also points out that the overall community is fairly rich in its composition as it houses bird species belonging to various feeding guilds.
As a result of enlarging the depth of exploitation of raw rock material deposits of marl and limestone at Leśnica-Małogoszcz (Przedborsko- Małogoskie Range – Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship), initially to the level of +215 m a.s.l. and then +200 m a.s.l., a mine depression cone will develop, which may threaten the existence of wetlands included in the Natura 2000 network. The wetlands are present in the pre-gorge section of Łososina river flowing through Grząby Bolmińskie and Gnieździskie Hills, at the mouth section of its hydrometrically ungauged tributary – the Wrzosówka river. In the study there has been demonstrated the possibility of preserving the current state of moisture content of the habitats which exist here, taking into account the quantitative characteristics of the components of water cycle and morphological conditions. The analysis of water resources has shown that under the conditions of a functioning mine depression cone, they will be sufficient to supply endangered wetlands and enable their irrigation. The solutions of an ecohydrological character have also been put forward which would compensate the loss of water in the area within the open-pit mine depression cone. This would require the construction of dams (e.g. artifi cial rapids) in the Wrzosówka river bed and a system of ditches at the bottom of its valley.
The paper presents the research carried out in the lower basin of Biebrza River valley in order to identify interception for natural wetland plant communities. Maximum interception, i.e. the largest amount of water, expressed in millimeters, which can be captured and retained by plant canopy from rainfall is one of the key parameters of the water cycle modeling. Maximum interception was determined based on the difference of the masses of wet and dry fresh plant samples. Collection of plant material samples took place during the five measurement sessions, which began immediately after the flood recedes, and then lasted until the end of the growing season. Interception spatial variability was analyzed on the basis of the results of maximum interception measured for selected plant aggregations in the different sampling points. The obtained values were extrapolated to the area of the lower basin of Biebrza River using vegetation map of the Biebrza National Park. By conducting a test sessions in the five coming months, the maps of the spatial variability also show changes over time. Methodology used in the described tests allowed for obtaining of satisfactory results. They present, in a correct way, variation occurring between the plant aggregations due to their morphology. In most cases the results are consistent with data from the literature. As results of the analysis of spatial variability of the maximum interception, the highest values were found for the plant communities located in the immediate vicinity of the river channel. With the increase of the distance from river towards the valley edges the maximum interception values decrease. These changes can be seen in the form of strips parallel to the river channel, which corresponds to the plant zones. Obtained map of spatial variability of the maximum interception, which is the results of extrapolation of the values assigned to plant communities, has a high correlation with the map resulting from the analysis of satellite images.
Extremely halophilic diversity of IncheBroun wetland located in the north of Iran was investigated by using culture-dependent methods. Sampling was carried out in May and September 2014. In each sampling 4 distinct regions of wetland were analyzed by using complex media like MGM, JCM168, MH1 and an alkaliphilic medium containing 23% salts. After incubation at 40˚C, a total of 406 isolates and 2.1 × 106 CFU/ml were obtained in culture media. Among them 361 isolates were obtained from MGM and 39 isolates from JCM 168, 3 isolates from MH1 and 3 isolates from the alkaliphilic media. Initial morphological, biochemical and physiological tests were performed. Production of 4 hydrolytic enzymes by 45 selected strains was assayed qualitatively. A total of 38, 19 and 6 strains were able to produce lipase, DNase and amylase activity. Protease activity was not observed among strains. As total 45 strains were selected randomly and phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA was performed for them. Among selected strains 40 isolated strians belonged to Haloarchaea and were belonged to the genera: Haloarcula(30%), Halorubrum(27.5%), Haloferax(17.5%), Halobellus (10%), Halogeometricum(5.2%), Halobacterium(2.6%), Halolamina(2.6%), Halorhabdus (2.6%) and Halostagnicola (2.6%). Haloarcula and Halorubrum were the dominant populations. A total of 5 strains belonged to domain of Bacteria and were similar to members of Rhodovibrio (40%), Pseudomonas (40%) and Salicola (20%).
Isotomiella hygrophila sp. nov. from the Biebrza ice-marginal valley in NE Poland is described. Notes on distribution and systematic relationship are given.
Na podstawie 134 dokumentacji geologicznych torfowisk oraz prac własnych przedstawiono charakterystykę mokradeł (torfowisk i gytiowisk) mezoregionu Poj. Olsztyńskiego. Na badanym obszarze o pow. 3817 km2 występują 2772 torfowiska oraz 95 gytiowisk zajmujących łącznie 26 975 ha. Wyraźnie przeważają obiekty małe do 10 ha. Blisko 80% obiektów torfowych stanowią torfowiska niskie. Gleby torfowe wytworzone są najczęściej z głębokich, średnio rozłożonych torfów z przewagą torfów olesowych. Około 25% torfowisk znajduje się w fazie akumulacji. Wykorzystanie rolnicze mokradeł w mezoregionie polegające na użytkowaniu darniowym jest prawidłowe. Przedstawione w pracy syntetyczne informacje mogą służyć do ustalania zasad gospodarowania i ochrony mokradeł oraz stanowić podstawę do specjalistycznych badań.
W pracy przedstawiono charakterystykę obszarów mokradłowych Krainy Wielkich Jezior Mazurskich na podstawie 96 dokumentacji geologicznych oraz prac własnych. Stwierdzono występowanie 1478 torfowisk i 43 gytiowisk o łącznej powierzchni 30.049 ha. Opracowano mapę ich rozmieszczenia. Wykazano że stopień zatorfienia mezoregionu jest bardzo wysoki (16%). Dominują torfowiska niskie, rozdrobnione, głębokie o przewadze torfów turzycowiskowych i olesowych średnio i silnie rozłożonych. Ponad 92% ich areału znajduje się w fazie decesji i jest użytkowanych głównie łąki i pastwiska. Sformułowano zasady ochrony mokradeł i opracowano mapę mokradeł kwalifikujących się do ścisłej ochrony.
We studied the effects of roads on presence of Plateau brown frogs (Rana kukunoris Nikolsky, 1918) and Tibetan frogs (Nanorana pleskei Gunther, 1896) in temporary pools of Sedges dominated wetland area in eastern Qinghai- Tibetan Plateau. The road is seven meter-wide, asphalt-paved with daily traffic rate about 400 vehicles. The temporary pools hold water only in summer with surface area of about 2 m2. We used logistic regression models, a theoretic information approach, and model averaging to test the effects of distance from road and depth, area and pH of pools on distribution of frogs in terms of presence/absence in 180 small pools located at 10 to 150 m from the road edge. Observed data showed that presence probabilities of both species declined in the vicinity of roads, starting at approximately 100 m away from the road edge. Model averaging based on AICc (Σωi = 95% confidence) indicated that both distance from road edge and its quadratic term were important predictors for explaining presence of both amphibians. Model-averaged prediction based on 95% confidence model set also revealed non-monotonic increasing curve relationships between presence probability of both amphibians and distance from road edge, even when other habitat variables were held constant. These results indicated that the road-effect zone for both amphibians extended 100 m on side of the wetland roads along which we sampled. Additionally, the results showed that water depth and water pH of pools positively influenced presence of Tibetan frogs and had highest contribution to the models. In contrast, water depth influenced presence of Plateau brown frogs negatively. It was indicated that environmental variables influence the presence of the two species of amphibians in different ways.
