Effects of climate on size structure and functioning of aquatic food webs [PDF]

, 2010
In aquatic food webs, the role of body size is notoriously strong. It is also well known that temperature has an effect on body size. For instance, Bergmann’s rule states that body size increases from warm to cold climates.

Seasonal Dynamics and Trophic Impact of Mesozooplankton in the Shannon River Estuary System, Ireland

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Mesozooplankton (netplankton > 250 µm) were sampled during nine cruises over one year at three stations in the Shannon estuary system, Ireland. A net with three mesh sizes was used to capture a wider range of plankton sizes than a standard single-mesh ...

Throughflow centrality is a global indicator of the functional importance of species in ecosystems

, 2012
To better understand and manage complex systems like ecosystems it is critical to know the relative contribution of system components to system functioning. Ecologists and social scientists have described many ways that individuals can be important; This

Scientific cruise report Elisabeth Mann-Borgese SUMMIX-MESO [PDF]

, 2012
Objectives: It was intended to investigate the meso-scale and sub-meso-scale dynamics of the upper layers (upper 80 m) in the central Baltic Sea, using towed instruments and acoustic profilers, to better understand the physical conditions for ...

The Westerschelde estuary: two food webs and a nutrient rich desert [PDF]

, 2003
Hummel et al. (1988) hypothesised the concomitant existence of two separate food chains in the Westerschelde: a photo-autotrophic coastal food chain in the marine part and a heterotrophic chain in the brackish part.

Small-scale distribution of the mesozooplankton in a tropical insular system

Brazilian Journal of Oceanography
In the present work, spatial and seasonal fluctuations of the abundance and diversity of mesozooplankton are presented, with special attention being given to copepod assemblages from coastal area of the Fernando de Noronha Archipelago (FNA) (3°50'24''S ...

Biogeochemical fluxes through mesozooplankton

Biogeochemical fluxes through mesozooplankton
Mesozooplankton are significant consumers of phytoplankton, and have a significant impact on the oceanic biogeochemical cycles of carbon and other elements. Their contribution to vertical particle flux is much larger than that of microzooplankton, yet most global biogeochemical models have lumped these two plankton functional types together.
