Effect of low quality effluent from wastewater stabilization ponds to receiving bodies, case of Kilombero sugar ponds and Ruaha river, Tanzania.
TL;DR: Proper design of treatment plants (oxidation ponds) is of outmost importance especially for factories, industries, camps etc located in rural developing countries where drinking water from receiving bodies like rivers and lakes is consumed without thorough treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of climate-induced distributional changes on the validity of biological water quality metrics.
TL;DR: The results show that the families of Odonata that are used in monitoring are shifting their ranges poleward and that species richness is increasing through time at most UK latitudes, and that caution is warranted in the use of such dynamic biological indicators.
