Grazing by meso- and microzooplankton on phytoplankton in the upper reaches of the Schelde estuary (Belgium/The Netherlands) [PDF]

, 2005
In contrast with the marine reaches of estuaries, few studies have dealt with zooplankton grazing on phytoplankton in the upper estuarine reaches, where freshwater zooplankton species tend to dominate the zooplankton community. In spring and early summer

Aquatic food webs in restored marshes: a stable‐isotope approach in the Gironde estuary (SW France)

Restoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 5, July 2025.
Intertidal marshes are important habitats for nekton. However, historical draining and dyking hampered European coastal wetlands. Marsh restoration is therefore critical not only to improve their capacity to protect coastal lines but also to rehabilitate their ecological functionalities. The benefits of intertidal marsh restoration for nekton community

Ecosystem Effects of Morphological and Life History Traits in Two Divergent Zooplankton Populations

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Little is known about the ecosystem effects of locally adapted populations. The filter feeding copepod Eurytemora affinis is an abundant and important zooplankton in coastal waters that consist of a cryptic species complex with locally adapted ...

A review of migratory Alosidae marine ecology in the northwest Atlantic

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 106, Issue 3, Page 677-695, March 2025.
Abstract Migratory animals play a crucial role in connecting distinct habitats by transferring matter and energy across ecosystem boundaries. In the North Atlantic, anadromous species exemplify this through their movement between freshwater and marine environments.

Advancing an integrated understanding of land–ocean connections in shaping the marine ecosystems of coastal temperate rainforest ecoregions

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 69, Issue 12, Page 3061-3096, December 2024.
Abstract Land and ocean ecosystems are strongly connected and mutually interactive. As climate changes and other anthropogenic stressors intensify, the complex pathways that link these systems will strengthen or weaken in ways that are currently beyond reliable prediction.

Distinct Aeromonas Populations in Water Column and Associated with Copepods from Estuarine Environment (Seine, France)

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Aeromonas spp. are ubiquitous bacteria primarily recovered from aquatic ecosystems. They are found in fresh water as well as estuarine and marine waters, and in association with numerous autochthonous aquatic organisms in these environments.

Brute force prey metabarcoding to explore the diets of small invertebrates

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2024.
We have used deep brute force metabarcoding to characterize prey interactions of invertebrates. Not requiring a priori sequence information or dissection, the brute force approach may enable studies on many small and enigmatic invertebrates. Abstract Prey metabarcoding has become a popular tool in molecular ecology for resolving trophic interactions at

Differential protein expression in the estuarine copepod Eurytemora affinis after diuron and alkylphenol exposures

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2015
Abstract   Proteomics was used in the calanoid copepod Eurytemora affinis for screening of protein expression modifications induced by organic contaminants. The copepods were exposed in a continuous flow-through system for 86 h to environmentally relevant concentrations of contaminants representative ...

Genetics of the estuarine copepod Eurytemora affinis with regard to improving water quality

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2020
Abstract As an estuary being restored, the Scheldt (Belgium/The Netherlands) offers an interesting setting to study the response of organisms and ecosystems to changing conditions. In this regard, this study specifically deals with the spatio-temporal distribution and possible genetic differentiation among the species complex Eurytemora affinis ...

The chemical ecology of copepods [PDF]

, 2013
An increasing number of studies show the importance of chemical interactions in the aquatic environment. Our understanding of the role of chemical cues and signals in larger crustaceans has advanced in the last decades.
