Floating islands as a strategy for promoting biodiversity in freshwater ponds
Graff, Lauren Marques; Pereira, Sofia I. A.; IIarri, Martina I.; Calheiros, Cristina S. C.Background & Aim: Floating treatment wetlands (FTW) are a nature-based solution for water treatment and also delivered a wide range of other ecosystem services. The establishment of a FTW relies, mainly, on the presence of plants in a floating structure, where direct contact of the biological components enables the uptake and removal of contaminants from the water, through phytoremediation processes (Calheiros ...
Floating islands as a strategy for promoting biodiversity in freshwater ponds
Graff, Lauren Marques; Pereira, Sofia I. A.; IIarri, Martina I.; Calheiros, Cristina S. C.Introduction: Floating treatment wetlands (FTW) are a nature-based solution (NBS) for water treatment and also delivered a wide range of other ecosystem services. The establishment of a FTW relies, mainly, on the presence of plants in a floating structure, where direct contact of the biological components enables the uptake and removal of contaminants from the water, through phytoremediation processes (doi:10.1...
