Community Synchrony in Aquatic Macroinvertebrates Is Unrelated to Environmental Variability but Differs Among Functional Feeding Groups [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
As environmental variability increases, as a function of climate change, communities will be less synchronous as species fluctuate more independently of each other. Species will contribute to community synchrony differently, based on their functional feeding groups. ABSTRACT Environments are becoming increasingly more variable, as a function of climate

Evidence on Night Movements of Macroinvertebrates to Macrophytes in a Pampean Stream [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Nocturnal invertebrate abundance peaks in lotic systems are usually associated to drift, however, diel migrations other than drift may be important in slow-flowing systems.

Common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) alters its feeding niche in response to changing food resources: direct observations in simulated ponds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We used customized fish tanks as model fish ponds to observe grazing, swimming, and conspecific social behavior of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) under variable food-resource conditions to assess alterations in feeding niche.

A new substrate for sampling deep river macroinvertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We compared macroinvertebrate communities colonising multiplate samplers constructed from perspex or tempered hardboard (wood) with an alternative artificial substrate constructed from folded coconut fibre matting (coir) enclosed in nylon netting ...

Algal Blooms in Lakes Increase After Wildfire Smoke Events in the Contiguous United States

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
Temporary pulses of surface chlorophyll‐a are identified following wildfire smoke events in lakes and reservoirs across the United States. ABSTRACT Area burned by wildfire has increased in the contiguous United States and in many places globally in recent years, impacting communities and ecosystems nearby and even far downwind of fires. We examined the
