The paucity of published information is attributed to the historical lack of interest by the government's ecological and nature conservation agencies, research workers, and those concerned with the management of urban green space.</p><p>Urban water bodies are classified according to their origins and use, as modified by age, size, water quality and level of public use. The plants and animals to be found in each category are described. Most of the information relates to London and to birds. However, London is atypical in many respects because of its size, large estuary, large parks, an active natural history society, and because it is the capital city. Apart from Milton Keynes (a new town) and some areas of the West Midlands, there is very little information about the ecosystems of other British towns and cities.</p><p>The data indicate the importance of urban water bodies for the conservation of wildlife in Britain. The potential for improving the value for nature by ecological engineering is demonstrated. The diffused management responsibilities are described together with the need to impose a discipline on the maintenance authorities by the preparation of management plans in order to ensure continuity and consistency of treatment.</p><p>A programme of research is advocated on the basis of the re-allocation of existing funds. The prime objective of such a programme is the acquisition of pragmatic information that will allow planning, design and maintenance operations to respond to inevitable development whilst maintaining a high-quality environment.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101265,"journal":{"name":"Urban Ecology","volume":"9 2","pages":"Pages 99-142"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1985-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0304-4009(85)90002-6","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78583212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Urban environmental conditions were characterized by decreased humidity, rapid humidity depression and decreased air quality.

Reduction in the number of lichen species found in sites is best explained by the study area's proximity to the city and ambient air quality.</p><p>Variation in the frequency of occurrence of tardigrade species living on corticolous mosses and lichens indicates differential tolerances to aspects of climate altered by urbanization. Tardigrade species richness is greatest in high-humidity, ‘clean air’ sites. Correlation methods were utilized to illustrate the relative effects of habitat conditions on the representation of species within epiphytes collected in these monitored study areas. Tardigrade species richness was best explained by site humidity regime; however, the frequency with which some species were found in sites appears to be related to air quality. Two common species are characterized by different environmental preferences. <em>Diphascon scoticum</em> Murray predominates in urban park sites, characterized by low air quality and reduced humidity. The prevalence of <em>D. scoticum</em> may be related to this protococcal algae feeder's adaptation to low pH substrates. Such low pH conditions are more frequent in urban moss habitats. <em>Minibiotus intermedius</em> Plate is found more often in humid, rural sites, and is apparently intolerant of faster evaporation rates which may occur in more xeric environments.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101265,"journal":{"name":"Urban Ecology","volume":"9 1","pages":"Pages 45-61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1985-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0304-4009(85)90016-6","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87986728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
