https://www.researchgate.net/publication/9027853; Research priorities in ecology and environmental sciences for the future are formulated. The priorities for both fundamental and applied ecology are proposed. The list of priorities includes 50 items. The priorities are relevant to terrestrial, aquatic, and general ecology. The list of priorities is helpful when grant proposals are being prepared, evaluated, and selected for funding.
This fundamental and innovative article was cited and commented favorably by scientists in many countries, and inter alia, by Professor V.A. Abakumov (2013), the leading expert in aquatic ecology in Russian Federation, and Chair, Department of Ecology, an international university in the Moscow Region. A Diploma (Academy of Water Sciences) – a certificate of high scientific quality - was awarded to the series of publications (on ecology, environmental science) including this article: http://5bio5.blogspot.com/2014/07/award-july-1-2014-to-series-of.html; ABSTRACT: A fundamental concept is proposed of aquatic ecosystem as a bioreactor that carries out the function of water purification in natural water bodies and streams. The ecosystem as a bioreactor has the following characteristic attributes: (1) it is a large-scale (large-volume) bioreactor; (2) it is a diversified (in terms of the number of taxa and the scope of functional activities) bioreactor; (3) it possesses a broad range of biocatalytic (chemical-transforming and degrading) capabilities. New experimental data on xenobiotics-induced inhibition of the functioning of the molluscs Unio tu- midus, U. pictorum, M. galloprovincialis and Limnaea stagnalis emphasize the potential ecological hazard from sublethal concentrations of pollutants (including those exemplified by synthetic surfactants and detergents). Keywords: environmental hazards, man-made impacts, anthropogenic effects, pollutants, xenobiotics, aquatic ecosystems, water purification, water filtration, bivalves, surfactants, detergents, biosphere

It was shown that even some relatively mild influences on organisms of two adjacent trophic levels may eventually produce a synergistic, pronounced and definitely undesirable effect which will lead to an abnormal increase in the abundance of organisms of one of the trophic levels. The concrete examples of that type of synergism were found when anthropogenic impacts affected the organisms of two adjacent trophic levels (bivalves and algae). Some new bioeffects of the action of the synthetic detergent (exemplified by the laundry detergent, namely, the detergent 'Vesna') (1 mg/l) on the bivalves, oysters Crassostrea gigas were described. Also, some new effects of the detergent (exemplified by the laundry detergent, namely, the detegent 'IXI') (10 mg/l) on the marine mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis, were found; also, new effects of the detergent (exemplified by the trade markTide-Lemon) (50 mg/l) on M. galloprovincialis were discovered. ** CONCLUSION: The hazard of simultaneous influence of contamination of environment (e.g., by detergents) on organisms of the two trophic levels may occur when the polluting chemicals produce effects on algae and bivalves that are filter-feeders. It means that a new type of environmental hazards was discovered.

ISSN 0012-4966. Distributed by Springer, orderdept@springer-sbm.com. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/10614405_The_synecological_approach_to_the_problem_of_eutrophication ; The author suggested a new component of the measures against eutrophication: reducing the input of the pollutants that weaken the potential of the filter-feeders for removing algae. The suggested way of controlling eutrophication is applicable to both freshwater and marine ecosystems. The article proposed a new idea, a new conceptual way of controlling eutrophication. The article is based on a series of the author's experiments with aquatic organisms (filter-feeders) that discovered and quantified relevant toxic effects of organic pollutants at sublethal concetrations. This article presented some new data to continue this line of research that is essential to the new solution to eutrophication. Among new facts that were reported in the paper, in addition to a substantial amount of relevant, related data previously obtained by the author: The liquid detergent (exemplified by the dish washing liquid, Fairy) 2 mg/L inhibited filtration by the bivalve mollusks, marine mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) within 2-23 min after addition, at temperature 22.5 ºС. This species of bivalve mollusks is one of key species in marine benthic ecosystems; it is one of ecological engineers that make a great impact on water quality. This is only one new fact that adds to many other facts (on how chemical pollutants can inhibit water filtration) discovered and reported by the author in other publications (papers and the book, Biological Effects of Surfactants). The paper presents a new approach to combat eutrophication.

Качество воды и элементный состав органического вещества при его оседании в водоемах // Использование и охрана природных ресурсов в России. 2018, № 1, с.26-29. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/324538483; Аннотация: В статье рассмотрены экологические вопросы, связанные с химическим составом детрита в воде водоема, входящего в систему водоснабжения крупного мегаполиса, в связи с проблемами формирования качества воды. Новые измерения химического состава, проведенные в данной работе, показали снижение содержания углерода и азота в частицах детрита при их оседании в водной среде. Полученные результаты представляют научный интерес для познания водных экосистем и имеют практическое значение для выявления закономерностей формирования качества воды в пресноводных экосистемах.
