The use of in-situ deployments to examine the success of water quality mitigation measures on a watercress farm
Watercress has long been believed to affect
macroinvertebrate communities in chalk streams.
Harvesting and washing watercress damages plant tissues
and releases isothiocyanates which are potential toxicants
to Gammarus pulex (L.). This study examined whether impacts on G. pulex of watercress farm factory wash water could be mitigated by treating via recirculation through the watercress beds.

Abstract
Watercress has long been believed to affect
macroinvertebrate communities in chalk streams.
Harvesting and washing watercress damages plant tissues
and releases isothiocyanates which are potential toxicants
to Gammarus pulex (L.). This study examined whether impacts on G. pulex of watercress farm factory wash water could be mitigated by treating via recirculation through the watercress beds.
