The River the La Plata Basin (3.17 x 106 km2; 22,000 m3 s-1) is the second largest one in South America, after the Amazonian, and drains part of the Brazilian, Bolivian, Argentinean, Paraguayan and Uruguayan territories. A major human impact in this basin is the construction of large dams for electric production. In case of Brazil, with one of the largest hydraulic potential in the world,…
In this research project a limnological investigation is planned to be carried out in the Reservoirs of Chavantes (area 400 km2, volume 9410 hm3, TR 400 days) and Salto Grande (area km2, volume 44,2 hm3, 1,4dias). Both reservoirs are located in the superior-middle stretch of the River Paranapanema in the border of the States of São Paulo and Paraná, and they are part of a cascade system o…
During the last years, there was an increase in the number of hydropower plants in Brazil, especially small hydropower plants (SHPs). The river damming promotes the growth of plankton communities, enhancing their importance in the matter and energy flow. However, the introduction and establishment of the invasive species of Mollusca Bivalvia Limnoperna fortune (golden mussel) should chang…
Artificial barriers have been created across time due to the human demographic and economic growth. In case of aquatic ecosystems, it is known that distinct kind of anthropogenic perturbations influence on biota composition and structuration, and pollution is an important factor that modifies the regional ichthyofauna. Previous studies carried out in the Tietê River, which presents a long…
River knick zones are macrohabitats of plateau rivers with rocky substrate that have small waterfalls, runs and pools. These environments provide shelter and reproduction sites for planktonic organisms, macroinvertebrates and fish. However, especially after the constructions of hidreletric powerplants, the river knick zones are being degraded and lost, even though they are not fully under…
