Diatoms as an indicator for tile drainage flow in a German lowland catchment
Environmental Sciences Europe, 2018Co-Authors: Naicheng Wu, Claas Faber, Uta Ulrich, Nicola FohrerAbstract:Background The separation of runoff components within a model simulation is of great importance for a successful implementation of management measures. Diatoms could be a promising indicator for tile drainage flow due to their diverse preferences to different aquatic habitats. In this study, we collected diatom samples of 9 sites (4 tile drainage, TD, and 5 river sites, Ri) in a German lowland catchment at a weekly or biweekly time step from March to July 2013 with the aim of testing the suitability of diatoms for tile drainage flow, which is typical for lowland catchment. Results Planothidium lanceolatum , Ulnaria biceps , and Navicula gregaria dominated in TD sites with relative abundances of 22.2, 21.5, and 10.9%, respectively. For Ri sites, the most abundant species was Navicula lanceolata (20.5%), followed by Ulnaria biceps (12.9%), Cyclotella meneghiniana (9.5%), and Planothidium lanceolatum (9.3%). Compared with Ri sites, TD had a lower diatom density, biomass, species richness, and percentage of Aquatic/Riparian diatoms (AqRi%). However, the proportion of Riparian diatoms (RiZo%) increased at TD. Indicator value method (IndVal) revealed that the two groups (Ri and TD) were characterized by different indicator species. Fifteen taxa, including Cocconeis placentula , Cyclotella meneghiniana , N. lanceolata , and U. biceps , were significant indicators for Ri sites. Planothidium lanceolatum , Achnanthidium minutissimum , and Navicula gregaria were significant indicators for TD sites. Conclusion A pronounced variation was found in the species lists of diatom community between Ri and TD water body types associated with different indicator species. With respect to hydrograph separation, these findings highlight the suitability of diatoms as an indicator for tile drainage flow. However, spatial and temporal variations of diatoms should be considered in future surveys.

Sociedade Botânica do Brasil, 2005Co-Authors: Landucci Monaliza, Ludwig, Thelma A. VeigaAbstract:Realizou-se o inventário florístico das diatomáceas pertencentes às classes Coscinodiscophyceae e Fragilariophyceae de rios da bacia hidrográfica Litorânea do Paraná. Amostras planctônicas e perifíticas foram coletadas em dezembro/1998, e em fevereiro e julho/2000 em nove rios: Iporanga, Nhundiaquara, do Nunes, Cachoeira, do Salto, Cambará, da Onça, Cabaraquara e do Engenho. Identificaram-se 20 táxons infragenéricos, sendo Aulacoseira distans (Ehr.) Sim. var. distans citação pioneira para o Estado do Paraná. Foram de ocorrência exclusiva em amostras planctônicas Asterionella formosa Hass. var. formosa e Cyclotella stelligera (Cl. & Grun.) V. Heurck var. stelligera. Por outro lado, Cyclotella pseudostelligera Hust. var. pseudostelligera e Fragilaria capucina var. vaucheriae (Kütz.) Lang.-Bert. foram de ocorrência exclusiva em amostras perifíticas.The survey is a floristic inventory of Coscinodiscophyceae and Fragilariophyceae diatoms from lotic systems of Litorânea watershed, east Paraná, Brazil. Diatoms were collected from periphytic and planktonic microhabitats on December 1998, February and July 2000. Nine rivers were sampled: Iporanga, Nhundiaquara, Nunes, Cachoeira, Salto, Cambará, Onça, Cabaraquara and Engenho. Twenty taxa were identified. Aulacoseira distans (Ehr.) Sim. var. distans was first recorded in the State. Asterionella formosa Hass. var. formosa and Cyclotella stelligera (Cl. & Grun.) V. Heurck var. stelligera occurred only at planktonic samples and Cyclotella pseudostelligera Hust. var. pseudostelligera e Fragilaria capucina var. vaucheriae (Kütz.) Lang.-Bert. were exclusively registered at periphytic ones
