Life on the Edge: Ecosystem Features of Lakes Across a Mountain–Prairie Elevation Gradient in Western Canada

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 1, January‐February 2026.
ABSTRACT Ecological transition zones such as mountain elevation gradients can influence the function and productivity of lakes through changes in climatic characteristics and catchment composition (i.e., land use/land cover). However, surveys of limnological features along such ecological transition zones show variable patterns, making it difficult to ...

Spatial Density, Biomass, and Composition of Crustacean Zooplankton on Lake Michigan Beaches

open access: yesFishes, 2023
Ecosystem alterations to Lake Michigan (LM), such as the invasion of dreissenid mussels, have decreased the abundance of phytoplankton and, subsequently, zooplankton, which has implications for Great Lake fisheries.

Invertebrate communities in northern Lake Victoria, with reference to their potential for fishery production [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The zooplankton and macrobenthic communities of Lake Victoria were sampled by lift net and Ponar grab, respectively. The zooplankton comprised copepods and cladocerans, rotifers and aquatic insect larvae. Most taxa exhibited wide distribution in the lake,

Zooplankton diversity in highly urbanized ponds: The role of road salt is not reflected by watershed impervious cover

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Urban ecosystems are structured by multiple anthropogenic stressors, yet despite the increasing extent and rate of urbanization worldwide, the ecological consequences of excessive road salt application and other urban phenomena remain poorly resolved.

Is it possible to simplify environmental monitoring? Approaches with zooplankton in a hydroelectric reservoir

open access: yesActa Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2017
Aim: In order to contribute to the knowledge about the simplification of biological surveys, this study evaluated the use of substitute groups, numeric and taxonomic resolution for the three main groups of zooplankton (cladocerans, copepods and rotifers)

Bladderwort Relationship to Zooplankton in Two Northern Michigan Lakes

open access: yesDiversity, 2023
Traditionally, most of our understanding of lake zooplankton dynamics is from data collected in the pelagic, open water zone. However, the littoral and benthic zones of lakes can play a role in zooplankton community interactions and relationships ...

Polyphemus pediculus (L.) (Cladocera) as a possible indicator of water quality [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
Usually stenobiotic species are used as hydrobiological indicators of the degree of pollution in natural waters. Cladocera are eurybiotic organisms, therefore their role as specific indicators of the water quality is considered to be insignificant ...

Acoustic Observations Unveil Seasonal Fluctuations and Regulation of Zooplankton Biomass and Its Vertical Distribution at a Mid‐Latitude Long‐Term Ocean Observatory

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Zooplanktonic organisms are considered a key link between different trophic levels. The ecosystem structure and dynamics are affected by changes in their population and phenology. In this work, the causes and timing of changes within the seasonal cycle of zooplankton biomass vertical distribution in oceanic waters of the Bay of Biscay were ...

Distribution and Biomass of the Cladocera in the Western Basin of the Anzali Lagoon (Abkenar)

open access: yes‬‭Majallah-i ̒Ilmī-i Shīlāt-i Īrān, 1998
The biomass of Cladocera (Crustacea, Arthropods) and their distribution pattern in the western part of Anzali Lagoon were investigated during a one year study program in 1994. From each of the allocated sampling sites, 5 subsamples were collected using a
