Secchi Depth Retrieval in Oligotrophic to Eutrophic Chilean Lakes Using Open Access Satellite-Derived Products

Daniela Rivera-Ruiz; José Luis Arumí; Mario Lillo-Saavedra; Carlos Esse; Patricia Arancibia-Ávila; Roberto Urrutia; Marcelo Portuguez-Maurtua; Igor Ogashawara

In this study, the use of open access satellite data for estimating Secchi disk depths in 3 lakes in Chile was investigated. In the oligotrophic Lake Panguipulli, no relationship was observed between estimated and measured Secchi disk depths. This highlight the need for methodological advances in the processing of satellite-derived water quality products,s, especially for very clear waters.

Eco-Evolutionary Interactions With Multiple Evolving Species Reveal Both Antagonistic and Additive Effects

Héléne Vanvelk; Lynn Govaert; Edwin M. van den Berg; Luc De Meester

 The authors investigated the ecological effects of evolution of multiple zooplankton species of their community dynamics. The study highlights that species differ in their evolution-mediated ecological effects and showcases that using the evolutionary effects on ecology of single species to predict multiple species' effects may lead to unreliable predictions.

The frequent five: Insights from interviews with urban wildlife professionals in Germany

Simon S. Moesch; Jonathan M. Jeschke; Sophie Lokatis; Geva Peerenboom; Stephanie Kramer-Schadt; Tanja M. Straka; Dagmar Haase

The authors interviewed 36 urban wildlife professionals in 4 large cities in Germany. Red foxes, wild boars, raccoons, stone martens and Eurasian beavers were the five mammal species most frequently highlighted in interviews to cause human-wildlife conflicts. The interviewees emphasized the need to create refuges for beavers and better inform the public about foxes.

Differential survival and feeding rates of three commonly traded gastropods across salinities

Elisabeth Renk; James W. E. Dickey; Ross N. Cuthbert; Elžbieta Kazanavičiūtė; Elizabeta Briski

This study investigates the establishment and impact risks posed by three readily available, traded snail species – Melanoides tuberculata, Tarebia granifera and Anentome helena – by assessing their survival and feeding responses across a spectrum of salinity levels.
