Biodiversity loss is accelerating rapidly in response to increasing human influence on the Earth’s natural ecosystems. One way to overcome this problem is by focusing on places of human interest and monitoring the changes and impacts on the biodiversity. This study was conducted at six sites within the influence area of the Santo Antônio Hydroelectric Power Plant in the margins of the Madeira River in Rondônia State. The sites cover a latitudinal gradient of approximately 100 km in the Brazilian Amazon Basin. The sampling design included six sampling modules with six plots (transects) each, totaling 30 sampling plots. The transects were distributed with 0 km, 0.5 km, 1 km, 2 km, 3 km and 4 km, measured perpendicularly from the river margin towards the interior of the forest. For sampling the ground-dwelling ants, the study used the ALL (ants of the leaf litter) protocol, which is standardized globally in the inventories of ant fauna. For the purpose of impact indicators, the first two campaigns (September 2011 to November 2011) were carried out in the pre-filling period, while campaigns 3 to 10 (February 2012 to November 2014) were carried out during and after the filling of the hydroelectric reservoir. A total of 253 events with a total of 9,165 occurrences were accounted during the monitoring. The ants were distributed in 10 subfamilies, 68 genera and 324 species/morphospecies. The impact on ant biodiversity during the periods before and after filling was measured by ecological indicators and by the presence and absence of some species/morphospecies. This is the first study, as far as we know, including taxonomic and ecological treatment to monitor the impact of a hydroelectric power plant on ant fauna. Until recently, most studies conducted on hydroelectric plants, located in the Amazon Basin, were carried out after the implementation of dams in order to assess their impacts on the environment and biodiversity (Benchimol and Peres 2015, Latrubesse et al. 2017, Sá-Oliveira et al. 2015). Recent studies on dam impacts have begun to be conducted prior to dam implementation (e.g. Bobrowiec and Tavares 2017, Fraga et al. 2014, Moser et al. 2014), thus providing a better overview of the impact and a better assessment of its magnitude.

Choir IR, Iskandar J, Parikesit, Partasasmita R, Husodo T, Kumoro J, Megantara EN. 2018. The local management andsustainability of swidden farming in the Villages of Bojongsalam and Sukaresmi, Upper Cisokan Watershed, West Java, Indonesia.Biodiversitas 19: 1054-1065. In the past, the swidden farming (huma or ladang) system had been predominantly practiced by villagepeople of West Java. Nowadays, however, the huma farming has rarely been practiced by the village people of West Java due to thegovernment policy, and environmental and socioeconomic changes. The local community who reside in the Villages of Bojongsalamand Sukaresmi, the upper stream of Cisokan, West Java, Indonesia, has still practiced both the wet rice field (sawah) and the humafarming in the private land, production forest of a state-owned forest company (Perhutani), and a state-owned electric company (PLN)project land. Recently some areas of the huma land have been used for the project of the Hydroelectric Power Plant of the UpperCisokan Pumped Storage (UCPS). As a result, the sustainability of huma system of the local people of Bojongsalam and Sukaresmi hasbeen seriously disturbed. The aims of this study were to elucidate the local management of the huma farming systems that areundertaken by local people of Bojongsalam and Sukaresmi Villages, and to analyze the sustainability of the huma farming of localpeople of Bojongsalam and Sukaresmi Villages as affected by the UCPS Hydroelectric Power Plant project. The qualitative method wasused, while several techniques of collecting the primary data, namely observation and in-depth interviews with informants were appliedin this study. The results of study showed that the local management of the huma farming has been annually undertaken by the localpeople of Bojongsalam and Sukaresmi, including deciding the location of huma plot, preparing the land (cutting shrubs and burningvegetation biomass), planting rice (ngaseuk) and other annual crops, weeding (ngored) and providing chemical fertilizers (mupuk),controlling pests, harvesting rice (dibuat), and fallowing land. Based on analysis of the emergent properties of the agroecosystem ofhuma farming, it can be predicted that productivity, stability, equitability, and sustainability of the huma farming systems ofBojongsalam and Sukaresmi Villages tend to be low in the near future due to the impact of UCPS Hydroelectric Power Plant project.


Purpose. Analysis of environmental problems and risks associated with the construction and operation of small hydroelectric power facilities (SHEPP) in the Ukrainian Carpathians. Methods. Field studies, statistical, hydrological, hydroecological, analysis and synthesis. Results. Potential environmental risks arising from the construction and operation of SHEPP in the Ukrainian Carpathians are considered. The influence of Yavіrska hydroelectric power station on water discharges in the Stryi river was investigated. The daily water discharges for the two hydraulic sections located above and below the station for low-water (2003) and high-water (2008) years are analyzed. Possible risks in the construction and operation of the hydroelectric power plant for the movement of flood waters, river sediments, the development of riverbed deformations, and others, are indicated. The difference in water discharges between the two hydrological stations is presented, and it is confirmed that in the spring of 2008 and 2003 and the autumn and winter of 2003 and 2008 minimal differences in water consumption were observed as a result of the water retention in the reservoir above the dam of Yavіrska hydro power station for the maximal electrical power generation. The impact of the Yavіrska SHEPP on the biota of the Stryi river during 2014–2015 was analyzed. The obtained results indicate that the main negative factors affecting the communities of river hydrobionts are the creation of reservoir of limnethic conditions in the continuum of the river ecosystem; the accumulation of sediments and dead organic matter on its bottom and banks and the demolition of these sediments on the lower sections of the channel bed; also a decrease of water in the riverbed downstream of the dam after the closure of the floodgates in June. The analysis of the environmental impact assessment reports made it possible to analyze the major environmental threats, which are possible during the building and operation of a small hydroelectric power plant on the Stryi river in the Dovhe village (Drohobych district, Lviv region). Conclusions. To prevent the impact of the projected SHEPP in the Carpathian region it is necessary to prescribe the mechanism of carrying out the environmental impact assessment, to specify the natural-geographical, hydrological and hydro-ecological restrictions on the construction and operation of the hydroelectric power station. It is also necessary to identify sections of mountain (“wild”) rivers with high values of natural landscapes and prohibit the construction of small hydropower facilities.

When planning the construction of a hydroelectric power plant, an important segment is adequate monitoring of water quality. With an appropriate monitoring program, the multifunctional use of artificial lakes is enabled. Eutrophication (nutrient over-enrichment) of water in a lake is a phenomenon that has been noticed in all lakes. The consequence of eutrophication is the endangerment of the aquatic ecosystem. Eutrophication is a phenomenon that occurs as a response of the aquatic ecosystem to the increased concentration of nutrients, phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N), due to natural and anthropogenic activities. Recent research indicates a correlation between local climate change and water circulation and the impact of climate change on all phenomena in the hydrological cycle. Temperature fluctuations, huge amounts of rain when precipitation is analysed, constant heating and increase in humidity all affect more intense eutrophication. The key conclusions of the research dealing with the construction of the hydroelectric power plant in Komarnica are: to introduce monitoring (permanent control) of water quality in lakes in order to minimize or control, even prevent eutrophication. Each artificial lake has its own unique characteristics. The dependence of chlorophyll, phosphorus and lake volume varies depending on the month, season and year. The proposal for the lake that will be built on Komarnica, which is part of the future hydroelectric power plant, is a monthly monitoring of the concentration of chlorophyll, nutrients and the volume of the lake. Seasonal monitoring depends on precipitation, hydrological and limnological characteristics and trends of dry and rainy episodes. Analyzes and previous research have shown that the introduction of mandatory parameters for monitoring water quality does not increase the cost of electricity production and energy conservation, but significantly improves and enhances the quality of the environment.
