Prolonged low flows and non‐native fish operate additively to alter insect emergence in mountain streams

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate‐induced flow alteration is decreasing snowpack and advancing snowmelt, subjecting mountain streams to longer low‐flow periods. Yet, anticipating how stream ecosystems respond to prolonged low flows remains challenging because distinct trophic levels can respond differently, and non‐native predators can dampen or amplify responses. Here,

Blooms of filamentous cyanobacteria reduce zooplankton quality and pelagic food web efficiency

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Cyanobacterial blooms in marine and freshwater ecosystems have increased in magnitude, frequency, and distribution worldwide during recent decades. Filamentous cyanobacteria are of unsuitable size for mesozooplankton feeding and of poorer nutritional quality than other phytoplankton taxa. The production and quality of higher trophic levels are

Light and temperature as triggers for surface filamentous green algal blooms in shallow freshwater systems

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Blooms of filamentous green algae (FGA) form dense mats at the surface of shallow freshwaters and have multiple negative impacts on aquatic ecosystem functions, services, and aesthetics. Although nutrient enrichment in freshwaters is a primary driver of excessive FGA growth, much less is known about other abiotic factors controlling bloom ...

Daily temperature variation explains zooplankton community differences in freshwater mesocosms recovering from a natural drought

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Drought events are typically studied as a single stressor. However, multiple environmental variables are altered under drought conditions, including water level and daily temperature variation. Here, we experimentally manipulated both variables in 16 outdoor mesocosms to disentangle how they impact freshwater zooplankton communities.
