Size-Dependent Top-Down Control On Phytoplankton Growth By Microzooplankton In Eutrophic Lakes
, 2016 We hypothesized that the grazing on phytoplankton by the microzooplankton community is size-dependent and, therefore, the top-down control on phytoplankton by microzooplankton community could be one possible mechanism explaining why small phytoplankton ...

Trophy constrains the temperature effect on ciliate species turnover rates
EcosphereWe applied FlowCam analysis cross‐validated by 18S rDNA sequences and taxonomic literature to study seasonal and short‐term population dynamics and species turnover in ciliate plankton during 15 months with high‐frequency samplings in a shallow temperate

Microzooplankton Species Found in Lake Fryxell
, 2011 In conjunction with the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica, lakes were monitored for microzooplankton by a team based out of the University of Nottingham (led by Johanna Laybourn-Parry). This

Microzooplankton Community Structure and Grazing Impact along the Western Antarctic Peninsula
, 2012 Microzooplankton (zooplankton 20 – 200 μm) are an integral part of aquatic food webs as they can be significant grazers of phytoplankton and bacteria, remineralizers of nutrients, and prey for higher trophic levels.

Impact of Corbula amurensis on the microzooplankton community of the northern estuary
, 2010 The overbite clam Corbula amurensis was introduced to the San Francisco Estuary (SFE) in 1986 and may be the cause of a substantial decline in phytoplankton biomass and abundance of some zooplankton species.

Thermal acclimation and adaptation in marine microzooplankton
, 2019 The impact of the oceanic temperature raise due to climate change might have profound consequences for key components of marine food webs, such as zooplankton. In general, the fate of a species facing a temperature change in its habitat will depend on the coupling among the different thermal sensitivities of key ecophysiological activities.
