26 cze 2021 · What Is Pond Ecosystem? Freshwater habitat: A pond ecosystem is a freshwater ecosystem on which different living organisms depend for their survival and nutritional needs. Ponds, due to their light penetration, are capable of supporting a diverse range of water plants.
19 paź 2020 · Dragonflies are sentinel species that are key invertebrate predators in both aquatic (as larvae) and terrestrial ecosystems (as adults).
3 gru 2023 · Creating a healthy ecosystem in the pond is essential for the survival of dragonflies and other wildlife. By providing a habitat for dragonflies, you can help control the mosquito population and add a touch of natural beauty to your outdoor space.
Pond construction in urban areas can mitigate loss of aquatic insects by providing refuges. Urban ponds are also an interface between civil society and aquatic insects, especially via charismatic dragonflies. Ponds have therefore been constructed specifically for dragonfly conservation awareness in many countries.
20 sty 2019 · Species richness, Dragonfly Biotic Index (DBI), Shannon's index, and species composition are used here to assess the complementary conservation value of adult dragonfly assemblages associated with forty ponds across a protected area-sugarcane-forestry mosaic.
17 mar 2018 · This study demonstrates that simple restoration measures not only have a positive effect on overall dragonfly diversity, but also increase habitat suitability for several species that would otherwise be absent. We therefore propose dragonflies as a suitable flagship group for pond conservation.
Abstract. Odonata constitute a valuable tool for various types of bioassessment and biomonitoring of aquatic habitats, such as the measure of biodiversity, the appraisal of waterbody health or integrity (including water quality and ecosystem function), the monitoring of management or restoration practices, and the detection and prediction of ...
