Resumo(s)

Despite the proven vital importance of freshwater ecosystems for humanity, those continue to be subjected of accelerated ecological degradation. Floating wetland islands (FWI) - one of bioengineering technologies classified as nature-based solutions – have shown ability to assist the reduction of nutrient concentrations, improving water and habitat quality for wildlife. Therefore, if properly used, FWI can be important tools for assisting the sustainable management and the rehabilitation of these ecosystems. Herein, are presented two proposals for FWI installation: one concerning the water and habitat quality improvement of an urban river section (Case 1); the other aiming the reduction of the small fish farm outflow impact on downstream water quality and the improvement of reared fish welfare (Case 2).
