Biological and ecological characteristics of Diporeia spp. are described including size, growth, life cycle, energy storage, temperature effect, bioturbation, feeding depth and sediment ingestion of Diporeia. Bioaccumulation and toxicity of organic contam
Benthic organisms dwell in sediment-water interface that contains significant amount of organic and inorganic contaminants. Their feeding behavior is highly related with sediment itself and pore water in the sediments, especially in ease of deposit feeder
Since the 1980s, no concepts have been paid more attention to in discussions of environmental policy and natural resource management than ″sustainability″ and ″sustainable development.″ The concepts, however, are still vague and elusive even though they are frequently being used by a wide range of fields including academia. governments, and the private sector.
