Insights into the effects of environmental factors on phytoplankton and microzooplankton at a basin scale: diversity, assembly mechanisms, and co-occurrence networks

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Mastering the characteristics of planktonic microbial communities under the influence of basin-scale environmental factors can provide scientific basis to develop more targeted protection and restoration measures. Here, an environmental DNA metabarcoding

Linking long-term changes of the zooplankton community to the environmental variability at the EPEA Station (Southwestern Atlantic Ocean)

open access: yesMarine and Fishery Sciences, 2021
A significant sea surface temperature increase has been reported for the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean between 20° S-50° S over the last decades. Zooplankton organisms are highly sensitive to temperature rise.

The Effect of Dissolved Polyunsaturated Aldehydes on Microzooplankton Growth Rates in the Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic Coastal Waters

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2015
Allelopathy is wide spread among marine phytoplankton, including diatoms, which can produce cytotoxic secondary metabolites such as polyunsaturated aldehydes (PUA).

Drivers of stability in plankton communities: dominance, asynchrony, and averaging effects across temporal, spatial and trophic scales

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
The origins of ecosystem stability have long intrigued ecologists. Recent theoretical advancements highlight three primary mechanisms driving stability: dominance, asynchrony and averaging. While plant community stability has been extensively studied, our understanding of marine community stability remains limited. Plankton, as key components of marine

Organization of planktonic Tintinnina assemblages in the Atlantic Ocean

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Marine plankton have different biogeographical distribution patterns. However, it is not clear how the entire plankton assemblage is composed of these species with distinct biogeographical patterns.

Between and Within Bay Differences in Mesozooplankton Assemblages in the Central and Eastern Baltic Sea: An Exploratory Study

open access: yesBiological Diversity, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 149-157, September 2026.
Mesozooplankton assemblages differed significantly both between and within Baltic Sea bays, driven mainly by local salinity and temperature gradients. Distinct communities occurred over distances of less than 1 km, demonstrating strong fine‐scale spatial variability.

Decadal Bowhead Whale Baleen Stable Isotope and Hormone Chronologies (1985–2010) Provide Insight Into Arctic Ecosystem Change

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Long‐term chronologies constructed from individual bowhead baleen plates reveal stable isotope declines consistent with regional Arctic food web or productivity changes superimposed on global anthropogenic C and N inputs, while relatively stable hormone concentrations over the same period provide no evidence of a concomitant increase in physiological ...

Microzooplankton as a bioindicator of environmental degradation in the Amazon

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2016
Abstract Recent studies have assessed the impact of the discharge of untreated domestic and industrial effluents on aquatic ecosystems. In the 1980s, large industrial factories were set up in the municipality of Barcarena, Amazon, Brazil; however, this was not accompanied by investments to improve basic sanitation and housing structures in the region,

Microzooplankton feeding behaviour: grazing on the microbial and the classical food web of African soda lakes [PDF]

open access: yesHydrobiologia, 2012
Nous avons étudié le comportement alimentaire du microzooplancton dominant des lacs salins de la vallée du Rift est-africain. Un ensemble d'expériences de pâturage a révélé des taux d'ingestion élevés des deux rotifères euryhalins Brachionus dimidiatus et Brachionus plicatilis et des ciliés omnivores de grande taille Frontonia sp.
