Treatment wetlands are a method of purifying wastewater. This study tested a natural wastewater treatment system in Argentina comprising tanks, wetlands and ponds. The system removed most solids and pollution from kitchen and bathroom water, worked during floods, and supported healthy plant growth.

Diversity of macroinvertebrates (e.g. snails, worms, and larval insects) is an indicator of river health. This study sampled locations along a Chinese watershed and found that downstream locations, where interconnectivity of river habitats was greater, saw higher macroinvertebrate diversity.

Microalgae can remove pollutants from wastewater, though their ability to do so is influenced by how pollutants interact. This study explored the use of the microalgae Chlorella vulgaris to remove nitrates, phosphates, and the common antibiotic florfenicol from wastewater.

Commercially farmed fish are at risk of becoming contaminated by ingested microplastics. This study measured ingested microplastics in farmed European seabass, finding the highest levels of microplastics in the intestine, blood, gills, liver and fillet. Larger particles accumulated in the fillet.
