Drivers and food web effects of Gonyostomum semen blooms [PDF]
, 2013 The flagellate Gonyostomum semen forms dense late-summer blooms in humic lakes and is a nuisance to swimmers because it forms a slimy coat on the skin, causing irritation in sensitive individuals. Increasing occurrence and bloom incidence of G. semen has

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.Abstract Benthic fluxes are important sources of nutrients and dissolved carbon to the water column. Yet, most approaches for quantifying benthic fluxes are labor intensive and cover relatively small areas of the ocean. Here, we use 224Ra to quantify ecosystem‐scale vertical mixing across a largely hypoxic deep water column in the Baltic Sea and ...

Inhibition of cosmopolitan toxic diatom, Pseudo‐nitzschia, by seaweeds
Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.Abstract Pseudo‐nitzschia is a genus of harmful algal bloom (HAB)‐forming diatoms that can produce domoic acid (DA), a compound known to cause death and disease in marine wildlife as well as amnesic shellfish poisoning in humans. Here, we show the effects of multiple cultivable seaweeds—Saccharina latissima (sugar kelp), Ulva spp., and Gracilaria spp ...

Factors associated with blooms of cyanobacteria in a large shallow lake, China
Environmental Sciences Europe, 2018 Background Eutrophication of freshwater systems can result in blooms of phytoplankton, in many cases cyanobacteria. This can lead to shifts in structure and functions of phytoplankton communities adversely affecting the quality of drinking water sources,

Use of ordination and classification procedures to evaluate phytoplankton communities during Superflux II [PDF]
Cluster analysis and an ordination procedure were performed on two data matrices to investigate real and environmental spatial relationships. Multiple regression analysis was used to relate the measured environmental variables to the phytoplankton ...

Patchiness and Demographic Noise in Three Ecological Examples
, 2012 Understanding the causes and effects of spatial aggregation is one of the most fundamental problems in ecology. Aggregation is an emergent phenomenon arising from the interactions between the individuals of the population, able to sense only -at most ...

Redfield revisited: Insights into freshwater seston carbon : nitrogen : phosphorus stoichiometry
Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.Abstract Seston carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) stoichiometry plays a fundamental role in aquatic ecosystems, influencing nutrient cycling, primary and secondary production, and trophic interactions. In freshwater systems such as lakes, P limitation is more common, whereas in marine environments, N more frequently limits primary production,

Experiments with lake phytoplankton in large enclosures [PDF]
, 1978 The use of large plastic enclosures, or 'Lund tubes', in lakes as a semi-natural basin for experiments, approximating to lakes within lakes, is discussed.
