Indoor artificial streams were used to evaluate the short-term (24 day) influence of copper and zinc, individually and in combination, on the biomass and taxonomic composition of algal periphyton communities. The effects of Cu (50 μg 1^-1) and Zn (1 mg 1^-1) were assessed using measurements of biomass, ash-free dry mass (AFDM), chlorophyll-a concentration, taxonomic composition and biovolume. In artificial...
Benthic diatom samples were collected from 45 potential reference river sites in Ireland. Diatom samples were also collected from 24 lowland eutrophic sites. The main objective for sampling the potential reference sites was to determine the type-specific biological typologies represented by these sites. The lowland sites were sampled as part of another project and are used here for comparative purposes...
International and European standards relevant to algal-based monitoring have been developed by the International Standards Organisation (ISO) and the Comité Européen de Normalisation (CEN). This work has been given new impetus by the publication of the EU Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC), which requires the use of CEN and ISO standards where available. Standards addressing diatom sampling and...
