Food Web Responses to Artificial Mixing in a Small Boreal Lake [PDF]
, 2017 In order to simulate food web responses of small boreal lakes to changes in thermal stratification due to global warming, a 4 year whole-lake manipulation experiment was performed. Within that time, period lake mixing was intensified artificially during two

The quality of water of the Mantovo reservoir, Republic of Macedonia [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2009 The aim of the paper is to evaluate the quality of water of the Mantovo Reservoir (Southeast Macedonia)based on physico-chemical parameters and the macrozoobenthos. Monthly sampling was performed during 2003 and 2004.

Methane‐Derived Carbon Contributes to Fish Biomass in a Deep, Eutrophic Reservoir
Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Methanotrophic bacteria oxidise large amounts of biogenic methane produced in freshwater and bind the original methane carbon in their biomass. When these bacteria are consumed by other organisms, methane‐derived carbon enters food webs. Methane‐derived carbon can support a substantial part of invertebrate biomass in some freshwater ecosystems.

Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2008 Inúmeros trabalhos têm mostrado que a larva de Chaoborus desenvolve migração vertical diária, buscando evitar a predação por peixes, e que a amplitude da migração vertical cresce com o estágio larval. Neste estudo, monitorou-se a distribuição vertical de

Diel vertical migration strategies of zooplankton in oligotrophic Russell Pond, New Hampshire [PDF]
, 2014 Russell Pond is an ultra-oligotrophic lake with low chlorophyll a (1.9 mg L-1), total phosphorus (3.4 mg L-1), high Secchi Disk (10.4 m) and high light transmission (water coefficient of water, kw=0.33). Vertical migration of Chaoborus, Bosmina, Daphnia,

Waterborne transmission largely contributes to the epidemiology of a plankton parasite
Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Understanding how parasites spread is crucial for preventing infections and predicting epidemic dynamics. These efforts are challenging for environment‐borne parasites because transmission is host density‐independent. We monitored the dynamics of Pasteuria ramosa, a common bacterial parasite of Daphnia magna with prolonged free‐living ...

Migration of Net Phytoplankton and Zooplankton in Mendum’s Pond, New Hampshire [PDF]
, 2006 The study examines the vertical distribution and migratory behavior of net phytoplankton and zooplankton of Mendum’s Pond in Barrington, N.H. The cyanobacteria, Microcystis and Aphanocapsa were the dominant net phytoplankton in this lake.

Oikos, Volume 2025, Issue 12, December 2025.Predicting the fate of small populations is essential in ecology, epidemiology and conservation biology. Small populations can go extinct quickly or can develop into large established populations. These can still go extinct through demographic stochasticity, especially when declines in mean population size or large size fluctuations drive them into an ...

Degree of high phenotypic plasticity in wild populations of Daphnia in early spring
Journal of Limnology, 2018 Inducible defenses have been empirically known as defensive phenotypes that are triggered by predator kairomones. We hypothesized that morphological defense of wild Daphnia varies not only with predator density, but also with the predator regime in the ...

Journal of Limnology, 2015 The primary factor that governs the size and species composition of zooplankton is still a controversial issue and temperature is considered the main factor responsible for latitudinal differences.
