Explanation of novelty and usefulness: The book chapter innovatively revisits the ecological role of aquatic invertebrate animals, namely, suspension-feeders (filter-feeders). These invertebrate animals are found in both pelagic (water column) and benthic (bottom) systems. The book chapter provided a fresh analysis of their function as an important part of an ecosystem's biomachinery (this is an innovative terminology of the author, a new term proposed by him). This biomachinery maintains water quality in aquatic systems (water bodies and streams). These aquatic organisms remove suspended matter from water. These invertebrate animals excrete faeces, pseudofaeces and dissolved inorganic materials that contribute to nutrient cycling between the water column and the benthic habitats (bottom part of the aquatic ecosystem). Suspension-feeders are a very important part of many natural aquatic remediation systems. These organisms can decrease some negative anthropogenic (man-made) impacts. Recent author's experiments are reported that demonstrate new negative effects of chemical pollutants. These pollutants (exemplified by synthetic surfactants, detergents, and some heavy metals) decreased the filtration rates of the invertebrate animals, suspension-feeders, that were studied. The author discovered these negative effects in his experiments with many aquatic organisms, e.g.: bivalves marine mussels (Latin names: Mytilus edulis, Mytilus galloprovincialis), oysters (Latin name: Crassostrea gigas), freshwater mussels (Latin name: Unio sp.,) and rotifers. Usefulness: the publication is useful in water quality protection, safety of aquatic biological resources, aquaculture, management of water resources, safety of sources of water supply, protection of nature of oceans and estuaries, keeping beaches clean and safe.

A.P.Kapitsa. M.V.Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow, Russia. The goal of this publication is to comment on development of some fundamental concepts and principles that lay ground and create foundation of a new theory of ecological biomachinery which simultaneously is a theory of apparatus of the biosphere. The term 'apparatus' in connection with the biosphere was used by V.I.Vernadsky in his book "The Biosphere" [1]. In his innovative works that were ahead of his time, V.I.Vernadsky formulated several fundamental concepts instrumental in development of the science of biosphere and ecology in the 20th as well as the 21st centuries. He coined the phrase 'apparatus of the biosphere' – the multitude of organisms performing their functions that taken en bloc are extremely important – as important as geological factors and processes - in formation the physical and chemical parameters of the environment. However, V.I. Vernadsky did not develop any specific principles or details about functioning of that apparatus. Development of ecology produced many insights into how organisms contribute to biogeochemistry and parameters of global environment. Various aspects of ecosystem functioning are relevant to those issues. Some valuable contributions toward understanding of how ecosystems function were made by many scientists. Among them are V.N. Sukachev, S.N. Skadovsky, G.E. Hutchinson, and many others. Processes relevant to biogeochemical flows were studied by E.M. Galimov, A.P. Lisitsyn, their co-workers and other scientists. Essential facts and generalizations were published by A.F. Alimov, M.E.Vinogradov, G.V.Dobrovolsky, G.A.Zavarzin, M.V.Ivanov, Yu.A.Izrael, G.G.Matishov, their co-workers and many other scholars. A.F.Alimov developed elements of the theory of freshwater ecosystems. However currently the holistic system of principles of the functions of ecosystems does not exist. Moreover, even the very term 'ecosystem' is not clearly defined. In his recent publications, Dr. S.A. Ostroumov (Moscow State University) developed some elements of the theory of ecosystem biomachinery functioning towards water self-purification in aquatic ecosystems and towards maintaining the aquatic habitats. Among some steps in experimental data generation and specific elements of theoretical contributions to the theory of apparatus of the biosphere, many parts of which are under some degree of anthropogenic stress, are the following ones. As one of important set of facts that proved to be useful for theoretical analysis, new bioeffects of surfactants and detergents were discovered and described in the book: S.A.Ostroumov, Biological Effects of Surfactants, CRC Press, 2006 [2]. It was experimentally proved that synthetic surfactants and detergents play a significant role as hazardous factors to water self-purification [3, 4]. The component of the ecological mechanism of water self-purification that is most vulnerable to some aspects of water pollution was discovered [3,4] . In the books 'Introduction to Biochemical Ecology' [5] and the second edition of that book ('Introduction to Issues of Biochemical Ecology'), the groundwork and basic principles for the new science of biochemical ecology at the interface between ecology and biochemistry were laid. Also, new fundamental concepts of ecological chemoregulators, ecological chemoeffectors, and chemical ecoregulators were proposed [5]. The polyfunctional role of biota in water self-purification was explored and formulated in form of a consistent theory [6 - 8]. The level-block system of principles for the analysis of ecological hazards from man-made impact on the biota was proposed, and new hazards of synecological synergism of man-made impact were identified (the papers were published in 2001 in DAN, DAN being the abbreviation for the title of the authoritative scientific edition, "Reports to the Russian Academy of Sciences") [9, 10]. Inhibitory analysis in ecology was initiated using aquatic organisms [11]. The concept of ecological repair that is related to water quality remediation was formulated [12]. The concept and term 'ecological clusters' was coined [13, 14], and some new parameters that characterize the role of organisms in ecosystem were proposed [15]. New concepts related to the ecological bomb of the second type were formulated [15]. Proposed was a new modern conceptualization of ecosystem [16], and of the borders (boundaries) of ecosystems [17]. Introduced were new fundamental concepts of the principle of ecological uncertainty [18]. New typology of migrations of elements and integrated abiotic-biotic regulation of biogeochemical processes was proposed [19]. The main functions of the biota as a factor for stabilization of the environment and climatic system of the Earth were formulated [20] New types of hazards from chemical pollution were identified and published in 1998 in the journal Rivista di Biologia / Biology Forum, and in 2001-2002 in DAN [2, 10, 21], and the basics of the theory of biotic self-purification of water and upgrading water quality were formulated and published in 2004 [22]. Developed were some new methods for measuring the sublethal effects of xenobiotics [23], and quantitatively measuring their effects on the efficiency of removing suspended matter from water by filter-feeders in the book 'Biological Effects of Surfactants on Organisms'. MAX Press, Moscow. 334 p.) [24]. Proposed were the concepts of synecological cooperativity and ecological taxation in biological communities [25], and a new approach to monetary assessment of the ecological services of aquatic ecosystems [26]. Application of the Liebig's law (limiting ecological factors) to human nutrition led to new links among biochemical ecology and human nutrition science and to new application of ecological science for strengthening human health [27] ('From Ecology to Health: in Search of Recommendations on the Basis of Biochemical Human Ecology'. Мoscow: MAX Press, 2006). The scientific approaches of the Nobel laureates, E. Schrödinger and I. Prigogine, were to a degree extended and developed by innovatively applying them to aquatic ecosystems [28]. The new method of recurrent additions to study phytoremediation was suggested [29] and successfully used in systems with Elodea canadensis and other aquatic macrophytes. The publications mentioned above continue the lines of research started by V.I. Vernadsky, and contribute significantly to the foundations of the contemporary and consistent theory of the apparatus of the biosphere. Bibliography: 1. Vernadsky V.I. The Biosphere. Moscow.
