TL;DR: Most indicators of the state of biodiversity showed declines, with no significant recent reductions in rate, whereas indicators of pressures on biodiversity showed increases, indicating that the Convention on Biological Diversity’s 2010 targets have not been met.

TL;DR: A rigorous, relevant, and comprehensive suite of biodiversity indicators with which to track changes over time, to assess the impacts of policy and management responses, and to identify priorities for action is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
A global Water Quality Index and hot-deck imputation of missing data
TL;DR: The Water Quality Index (WATQI) as discussed by the authors provides a global effort at reporting and estimating water quality on the basis of five commonly reported quality parameters: dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity, pH value, and total nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacteria and algae in stream periphyton along a nutrient gradient
TL;DR: The hypothesis that bacteria in biofilms compete with algae for nutrients is rejected and it is suggested that bacteria and algae in bio Films coexist in an association that offers space and resources to sustain production of both groups of organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Periphyton, water quality, and land use at multiple spatial scales in Alberta rivers
TL;DR: The ability of land use to replace water quality variables in predictive models of periphyton chlorophyll a was tested with a 21-year data set for Alberta rivers, with best models based on the combination of nutrients and ecoregion and explaining up to 43%44% of perIPhyton chlorine variability.
