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.

P(論文)Spatio-temporal variability in life cycle strategy of four pelagic Antarctic copepods, Rhincalanus gigas, Calanoides acutus, Calanus propinquus and Metridia gerlachei was studied, including their copepodite stage composition, using the multiyear ...

ABSTRACT Japanese anchovy (Engraulis japonicus) is the most abundant fish in the East China Sea (ECS) and an important fishery resource throughout its life stages. Using samples collected along the ECS shelf‐break in April over a 22‐year period (2001–2022), we examined the horizontal distribution and interannual variability of larval density (mean ...

Due to the complexity of taxonomic classification based on the classical morphological characters of copepods, phylogenies have been ambiguous. In this study, we investigate the phylogeny of copepods, including four species from three orders, in the ...

ABSTRACT Marine ecosystems are experiencing warming events in various regions of the world. Thus, many fish species and populations are now being impacted by the warmer water temperature conditions. Previous studies have reported temperature‐dependent sex determination (TSD) in various fish species.

Marine copepods and solar radiation
Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) has an overall negative effect on zooplankton. The direct effects (i.e., when the individual is exposed to UVR) include mortality due to DNA damage, and changes in feeding, reproduction and respiration. The effects can also be

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Zooplankton are a pivotal component of the pelagic community, and their abundance and distribution are often strongly dependent on environmental conditions at sea. However, climate change can pose significant challenges to planktonic organisms. Therefore,

Bioaccumulation of methylmercury in a marine copepod
Abstract Methylmercury (MeHg) is known to biomagnify in marine food chains, resulting in higher concentrations in upper trophic level animals than their prey. To better understand how marine copepods, an important intermediate between phytoplankton and forage fish at the bottom of the food chain ...

Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...
