Restoration approaches to improve in-stream hydromorphology are increasing worldwide, but often fail to recover good ecological status as well as biodiversity. Evidence for the dominant effect of hydromorphology on biodiversity and ecosystem functioning suggests that the strong potential for hydromorphological restoration is not fully explored in stream rehabilitation measures. We argue t…
The Wastewater Treatment Plants (WTPs) significantly contribute for attenuating the problems associated with wastewater discharges into aquatic systems, such as rivers and streams. However, depending on the technology that is used in the WTPs, the removal of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) may not occur (or occur only partially). Such nutrient inputs can cause changes in several ecosystem…
This proposal is associated with a current research project funded by FAPESP (2016/14176-1). The main objective of this ongoing research is to estimate macronutrient retention in streams located in the Cerrado savanna (SP, Brazil) and correlate retention rates to ecosystem metabolic activity and other stream attributes. Specifically, we are estimating ammonium and phosphate transport and …
Aquatic ecosystems are responsible for key ecosystem services and provide direct and indirect benefits to the society. The nutrient retention in surface waters, which is associated to physical, chemical and biological processes, is one of their main functions and it is influenced by anthropogenic interferences. Nutrient retention has been mostly studied in temperate environments, but litt…

Urban streams provide several essential ecosystem services, including different direct and indirect water uses. However, these aquatic systems have been subjected to deterioration in their quality, hampering fundamental processes to the ecosystem balance, such as water purification. Still scarce in tropical regions, the study of retention capacity in small streams is relevant for the unde…
Aquatic ecosystems are responsible for key Ecosystems Services (ES), providing direct and indirect benefits to the living beings. Hydrographic basins located in urban areas are unique environments with gradients of characteristic disturbances that can alter the natural biogeochemical cycles and consequently the offering of SE. Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) inputs from the Wasterwater Tr…
The preservation and environmental management of the streams play a key role for the maintenance of biodiversity, besides the guarantee of several direct and indirect benefits offered to the human beings through the ecosystem services. The population growth, associated with shifts in land use and pressures from diverse anthropogenic activities, has been causing the degradation of aquatic …
The textile industry is an important activity for the economy of many countries, including Brazil. However, the liquid effluents released by this activity, if untreated or treated insufficiently, can impose significant impacts to the environment and the possible degradation of the water quality of the receiving water bodies. Such effluents usually present high color and Chemical Oxygen De…

The preservation of streams is fundamental to insure several direct and indirect benefits offered to them by humans, called ecosystem services. Several techniques for the recovery of highly human-impacted environments are being used. Knowing the effects of these impacts on the indicators of aquatic ecosystem functioning, such as metabolism and nutrient retention, is fundamental for guidin…
