The Effect of Food Concentration on the Juvenile Somatic Growth Rate of Body Length, Fecundity and the Production of Resting Eggs by Moina brachiata (Crustacea: Cladocera) Single Females [PDF]
The study addresses the effect of different food concentrations of green alga Chlorella vulgaris on the life cycle parameters (the body length, specific juvenile somatic growth rate of body length, the number of offspring in the first clutch of ...

The Effects of Nutrient Additions on Kokanee in Dworshak Reservoir, Idaho
ABSTRACT We investigated the effects of whole reservoir nitrogen (N) addition on kokanee growth in Dworshak Reservoir, Idaho. We hypothesized that N addition would improve the growth of kokanee (Oncorhynchus nerka) at a given level of abundance by increasing the availability of Daphnia, an important food source.

Copepods vs. cladocerans in the field.
Mean (±SE) proportion of copepods (white) and cladocerans (gray) observed in over ten years of field data from Lake Krankesjön and Lake Ringsjön during springs colder and warmer than the overall mean temperature in May (11.48°C) of all years investigated.

La mayoría de estudios ecológicos del zooplancton se han realizado en aguas abiertas. No obstante, es importante ampliar la exploración hacia hábitats como el de las macrófitas. En este estudio se evaluó la variación espacio-temporal de la estructura del

Abstract Many commercially exploited fish stocks have declined over the last few decades. It is therefore essential to identify natural populations and understand local adaptation for sustainable management. Salinity is a key environmental factor shaping local adaptation, and adaptive trait divergence often occurs at the egg and larval stages.

Top–down control of phytoplankton by crustacean mesozooplankton is a cornerstone of freshwater ecology. Apparently, trophic cascades are more frequently reported from freshwater than from marine plankton.

Abstract Introduction We studied the response of fish assemblages, water quality, and plankton following the completion of 700 acres of a 1184‐acre tidal restoration project (Dutch Slough Tidal Restoration; DSTR) in a system degraded by water diversions, channelization, non‐native species, and wetland loss.

The prediction of cladoceran grazing rate spectra1 [PDF]
Reanalysis of published observations on the ingestion of artificial particles by cladocerans confirmed the statistical significance of particle size selection in situ. Three statistical approaches were tested to seek a framework for a general theory of cladoceran particle size selection: the algebraic continuous model, the algebraic discrete model, and
