Investigation of a Gravel-Bed River’s Pattern Changes: Insights from Satellite Images

2021

Changes in river pattern have been documented in the literature. The recognition of islands and vegetated patches, which is indicative of the evolution processes, requires simultaneous information at different points and at different times and field studies are still difficult and scarce. The present work, focusing the attention on a gravel-bed river, explores the possibility to conduct a first-step pattern changes analysis by identifying the evolution of the morphological features and taking information of islands and vegetated patches from satellite images easily available from Google Earth. The study is conducted by combining the information taken from both the satellite images and the f…

Zbiorowiska roślinne doliny Czerwonej Wody w Parku Narodowym Gór Stołowych

2018

The Czerwona Woda River is the main watercourse in the Stołowe Mountains National Park and drains the major part of the Stołowe Mts. It was regulated in the past, but its channel has been spontaneously naturalized. Now, managed spruce forests grow along almost the entire length of this small mountain stream. The aims of the present study were to investigate diversity of plant communities connected with the Czerwona Woda stream and to prepare detailed vegetation maps. The results obtained can potentially be a reference for future restoration projects implemented in the Stołowe Mountains National Park. As a result of vegetation mapping, there were distinguished 20 plant communities representa…

Experimental investigation of flow turbulent structure in a high-amplitude vegetated meandering laboratory flume

2018

The present work focuses on high-curved channels which are characterized by a complex flow turbulent structure. The specific aim of work is to analyze the evolution of turbulent coherent motion in the pres-ence of vegetation on the bed.

Mixing processes in vegetated rivers: experimental investigation in a laboratory flume

2018

The presence of vegetation in rivers exerts an important ecological function and is very important to maintain suitable habitat. Especially in recent years, some researchers (among others Perrucca et al., 2007) have focused their attention on the role of vegetation in channel’s morphodynamics. Alteration of hydrological conditions in fluvial systems inevitably leads to changes in river morphology, riparian or riverbed vegetation and ecosystems. Riparian vegetation distribution could also change in time and in space depending on the combination of factors affecting the settling and growth of vegetated elements. In the present paper attention is focused on the turbulent and mixing processes i…

Is it possible to understand a book missing a quarter of the letters? Unveiling the belowground species richness of grasslands

2022

Abstract Knowledge of species richness patterns in plant communities is biased toward its hidden belowground part and is derived only from the part visible aboveground. Studies on the relationship of the above- to belowground parts of plant communities suffer from the lack of a consistent and uniform approach to assess their taxonomic composition, particularly in species-rich ecosystems. This study described the proportion between above- and belowground parts of vegetation in three grassland types along with the environmental factors that affect them, using eDNA metabarcoding and an observer survey. The internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) region was used to analyze the total plant richness…

Evaluation of oleander accessions for resistance to Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. nerii

2006

Nine oleander accessions were evaluated for resistance to Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. nerii, causal agent of the oleander knot disease. None of the accessions was resistant when tested with three bacterial strains of different virulence, but they varied significantly in the severity of symptoms induced by these strains. The most susceptible accessions "Dark Salmon" (dark salmon flower) showed deformation of stems, leaves and seed pods and secondary knots on aerial parts, whereas the least susceptible one "White" (white flower), inoculated with the least virulent strain, showed neither localized knots at the inoculation point nor secondary symptoms. In this study an in vitro test, based on pr…

Germination Pattern of Chamaerops humilis Seed after Short-Time Storage

2015

Dwarf fan palm (Chamaerops humilis) plays an important ecological role in the thermo Mediterranean vegetation stage, both in woodlands, xerophitic shrub communities and degraded ecosystems. Dwarf fan palm is typically propagated from seeds. Whereas other palm species show reduced germination after few months of seed storage, no information is available on the effects of storage time on seed germinability . We examined the germination pattern of dwarf palm seeds aged after a storage of four, six or eight months in comparison to fresh seed (control). A covariance analysis was performed to test the effect of time within seed-storage treatment. The germination patterns were significantly fitted…

Enterobacteris en productes vegetals frescos: resistències als antibiòtics

2015

En aquest treball s’ha estudiat la presència d’enterobacteris en productes vegetals frescos que poden consumir-se directament, sense tractaments que poden afectar a la viabilitat dels microorganismes presents en aquests vegetals. Com material d’estudi s’han seleccionat una sèrie de verdures i hortalisses que habitualment poden consumir-se crues (tomates, enciams, rúcula, canonges, etc.), adquirides en distints establiments de la ciutat de València i els seus voltants, ja que la zona de l’horta de València es caracteritza, a més de per la qualitat i quantitat de la producció hortícola, per l’ús de pràctiques agrícoles (com l’ús de fem com adob) que afavoreixen la contaminació dels vegetals a…
