Monitoring Boeckella lake, Antarctica Peninsula, from 1986 to 2023, using remote sensing
Cuadernos GeográficosThe Antarctic Peninsula (AP) has experienced rapid warming in recent years, which has caused permafrost degradation. In the north of AP, in Hope Bay, Boeckella Lake has experienced rapid and sudden drainage events in recent decades driven by thermokarst processes.

Comment: Food web interactions and biomanipulation in Australian reservoirs [PDF]
, 1997 The authors have been studying the control of phytoplankton biomass in several Australian reservoirs. To manipulate fish communities in order to reduce phytoplankton biomass, one needs a thorough understanding of processes in the plankton-associated food

Revisiting Elton’s copepods: : lake construction has altered the distribution and composition of calanoid copepods in the British Isles [PDF]
, 2017 It is now widely accepted that the construction of new lakes, ponds and reservoirs facilitates the invasion of non-indigenous aquatic species, due largely to low biotic resistance from native communities.

UV-B-induced damage and photoreactivation in three species of Boeckella (Copepoda, Calanoida) [PDF]
Journal of Plankton Research, 1997 Solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation poses a threat to most living organisms. Aquatic organisms have evolved three basic mechanisms to cope with harmful levels of radiation. Two mechanisms, avoid- ance (e.g. vertical migration) and photoprotection (e.g. production of photoprotective compounds that act as filters, antioxidants, etc.), serve to minimize the ...

Pelagic communities and ecosystem processes in Andean Patagonian lakes
Ecología Austral, 1998 Limiting nutrients, nitrogen and phosphorus, are of crucial importance in the structure and dynamics of freshwater plankton. Oligotrophic lakes are nutrient limited environments and therefore their plankton dynamics depends mostly on internal mechanisms

New distribution records of 2Boeckellaspecies in New Zealand (note) [PDF]
New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 1984 Abstract The freshwater calanoid copepods Boeckella triarticulata and B. hamata were found in ponds near Napier. These are the first records of B. triarticulata in the North Island, New Zealand and of B. hamata in the east coast, North Island.
