Insufficient oxygen delivery to tissues is hypothesised to limit thermal tolerance, but evidence in ectotherms is mixed. We assessed heat tolerance under hypoxia, normoxia and hyperoxia to test whether the extent in which oxygen can lower or increase heat tolerance differed with mode of respiration, comparing gill-breathing caenogastropods and lung...
Laboratory data on desiccation tolerance of native and non-native mollusc species were used to derive species sensitivity distributions (SSDs), to predict effects of desiccation on mollusc assemblages in rivers during low discharge events and to prioritise various environmental stressors (i.e. desiccation, temperature and salinity).The predicted ab...
Since its appearance in 2006 in a freshwater section of the Rhine–Meuse estuary (Hollandsch Diep, The Netherlands), the non-indigenous quagga mussel has displayed a rapid range expansion in Western Europe. However, an overview characterising the spread and impacts of the quagga mussel in this area is currently lacking. A literature study, supplemen...
As filter-feeders, freshwater mussels provide the ecosystem service (ES) of biofiltration. Chemical pollution may impinge on the provisioning of mussels' filtration services. However, few attempts have been made to estimate the impacts of chemical mixtures on mussels' filtration capacities in the field, nor to assess the economic benefits of mussel...
Chemical pollution impinges on the quality of water systems and the ecosystem services (ESs) they provide. Expression of ESs in monetary units has become an essential tool for sustainable ecosystem management. However, the impact of chemical pollution on ESs is rarely quantified, and ES valuation often focuses on individual services without conside...
A comparison of chemical, toxicological and ecological monitoring data and
modelling tools for the assessment of sediment pollution
Het dichtbevolkte Nederland kent een groot aantal ruimtelijke opgaven, waarbij een spanningsveld ontstaat tussen natuur, economie en maatschappij. Dit artikel beschrijft hoe het concept natuurlijk kapital
een bijdrage kan leveren aan integrale oplossingen voor beleidsopgaven rondom stikstof, klimaat, landbouw en biodiversiteit, en daarbij een verbi...
Enhancing consideration of the ecosystem services concept within decision-making calls for integration of local knowledge and data within assessments to capture context-specific spatial and thematic detail. This paper demonstrates how local knowledge and (biophysical, sociocultural, economic) data can be integrated within ecosystem service assessme...
This paper demonstrates the utility of local models for assessing ecosystem services to support urban planning. It does so by application of the NC-Model, a spatially-explicit set of models for assessing ecosystem services in the Netherlands, to assess changes in ecosystem services in the Municipality of Amsterdam given the implementation of strate...
Freshwater mussels are ecosystem engineers that provide important ecosystem functions and services, such as bio-filtration. A method for quantifying filtration capacity in rivers was developed and applied in a case study that estimated the loss in filtration services provided by invasive alien dreissenid mussels following a mass mortality event in...
Het voorzien in mogelijkheden voor sportvisserij is een belangrijke culturele ecosysteemdienst van watersystemen. Het voorliggende rapport beschrijft de ontwikkeling en toepassing van een indicator om deze ecosysteemdienst te kwantificeren en te karteren voor het langsdammengebied van de Waal. Daarbij zijn drie deelindicatoren gebruikt, namelijk he...
The EU 2020 Biodiversity Strategy requests EU Member States to map and assess ecosystem services within national territories, and to promote and integrate these values into policy-making. This calls for standardized and harmonized data, indicators, and methods to assess ecosystem services within national boundaries. Current approaches for assessing...
The use of residual biomass for the production of bioenergy and biomaterials is often suggested as a strategy to avoid negative effects associated with dedicated biomass production. One potential source is biomass from landscape management. The goal of this study was to find the lowest net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of various applications of r...
The introduction and spread of alien mollusc species is strongly related to human activities such as connecting river basins
through canal construction and shipping. Economic growth has caused an increase in commercial and recreational navigation
on rivers and led to the development of extensive networks of waterways. Ships alter flow velocity in l...
Society is increasingly in need of renewable resources to replace fossil fuels and to prevent resource depletion. River-floodplain systems are known to provide important societal functions and ecosystem services to mankind, such as production of vegetative biomass. In order to determine the potential of harvesting vegetative riparian bio-mass, the...
River systems provide numerous ecosystem services that contribute to human well-being. Biophysical quantification of spatiotemporal development of ecosystem services is useful for environmental impact assessments or scenario analyses of river management and could be done by linking biophysical indicators of relevant ecosystem services to landscape...
Invasive alien species (IAS) are species whose introduction or spread outside their native range threatens biological diversity, ecosystem functioning, economy, and/or public health. The recent European Union (EU) regulation on the management of IAS emphasizes the need for a consistent approach to alien species assessment that will underpin interna...
Within impounded sections of the rivers Rhine and Meuse, epibenthic macroinvertebrate communities are impoverished and dominated by non-native invasive species such as the zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) and quagga mussel (Dreissena rostriformis bugensis). In the winter of 2012 management of the water-level resulted in a low-water event in the...
