This nematode worm is a parasite, originally from Southeast Asia. With the American eel population already declining, the introduction of this nematode may have a large negative impact on the survival of this species.
Anguillicoloides crassus (Nematode Worm)
Pickleweed is an invasive or introduced plant in Hawaii. It has succulent, brilliant green leaves and is common in salt marshes and tidal shorelines. It grows slowly in soils with high salt concentrations and areas with seawater overwash where it suffers little competition from other plants. The species manages salts by sequestering them in cell vacuoles and eventually shedding the leaves.
Batis maritima (Pickleweed)
The steps in this diagram assist Trust Fund recipients in determining the best experimental design and monitoring method for their water quality monitoring project.
Water Quality Management Decision Tree
In the section of the river above the dam builds up with sediment, making the dam shallower. High water flow causes scouring and the transport of sediment and associated nutrients over the dam. On this other side of the dam phosphorus mobilizes in reaction with salt water. Further down the river seagrass beds grow on the Susquehanna flats.
