Long‐term changes to plankton communities in artificially heated lakes
Abstract Increased surface‐water temperatures and nutrient enrichment are predicted to alter planktonic communities, impacting biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. While short‐term mesocosm studies have reported temperature‐ and nutrient‐driven effects, long‐term observations from natural systems remain limited.

ABSTRACT Temporary rivers and streams are characterized by flow cessation and support high biodiversity of both aquatic and terrestrial species. In this study, we analyzed biological and ecological traits of benthic invertebrates to assess the ecological resilience and resistance of an intermittent river in Central Italy.

Abstract We herein present a phylogenetic and population genetic analysis of a Tasmanian Mountain Shrimp clade, based on ddRAD and cytochrome oxidase subunit‐1 data sets. Our data show that the morphologically well‐delineated and widespread Anaspides richardsoni Ahyong, 2016 is paraphyletic with respect to four other species (A. eberhardi Ahyong, 2016,

A mini-poster of the principal small crustaceans (Amphipoda, Isopoda, Cirripedia, Euphausiidae, Mysidae) that may be expected on biodiversity surveys in Gulf of St. Lawrence (GSL). Updated from a page of a series here: Nozères (2022) Mini-posters of macroinvertebrates in captures from bottom trawl surveys of the estuary and northern Gulf of St ...

ABSTRACT Nutrient loading, aquatic invasive species, and climate warming have altered food web dynamics in the Great Lakes. Long‐term data are required to characterise the response of the lower food web to multiple environmental drivers and develop trophic indicators for future research and management efforts.

Where Do You Fly From? Assessing Aerial Dispersal in Temporary Rivers Using Stable Isotopes
ABSTRACT Dispersal is a crucial ecological process that facilitates gene flow and species exchange within ecosystems. In temporary rivers (TRs), dispersal is a key driver of community assembly because it determines the ability of the organisms to adapt to seasonal drying and maintain stable populations.

Abstract The aquaculture of Argopecten purpuratus (Peruvian scallop) is a profitable activity with positive impacts on the local economy. However, the development of biofouling on the culture lantern nets generates negative environmental impacts that affect its sustainability.

Hurdles in investigating UVB damage in the putative ancient asexual Darwinula stevensoni (Ostracoda, Crustacea) [PDF]
Ostracoda or mussel-shrimps are small, bivalved Crustacea. Because of their excellent fossil record and their broad variety of reproductive modes, ostracods are of great interest as a model group in ecological and evolutionary research.

The first occurrence of the Ponto-Caspian invader, Hemimysis anomala G.O. sars, 1907 (Mysidacea) in the UK [PDF]
An invasive Ponto-Caspian mysid, Hemimysis anomala G.O. Sars, 1907, was recorded in England for the first time in 2004. Usually a deep water species, in England H.
