Salinity, turbidity, and chlorophyll drive zooplankton succession in a temperate estuary under anthropogenic pressure

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Estuarine zooplankton are vital primary consumers and essential for estuarine ecosystem functioning and productivity, but they face strong physico‐biochemical gradients and often anthropogenically altered habitats that impact their succession.

Connecting models, networks, and experiments: Revisiting the role of viruses in marine carbon cycling

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The marine microbial food web is a key driver of global carbon cycling, mediating the production, consumption, and remineralization of organic matter in the ocean. Within this food web, viruses exert strong top‐down control by infecting and lysing both phytoplankton and heterotrophic bacteria.

Coccolithophore particulate inorganic and organic carbon ratios: An evaluation of acid decalcification methods

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Accurate direct measurements of coccolithophore particulate inorganic and organic carbon ratios (PIC/POC) are crucial for understanding the physiology and role these microbes play in global ocean carbon flux. Direct measurements of POC are commonly obtained by acid fuming or applying acid directly to filters to dissolve PIC (CaCO3) prior to CN

Regional landscape differences lead to contrasts in the strength of environmental sorting among crustacean zooplankton metacommunities

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Processes underlying metacommunity structuring are important for understanding species tracking of environmental change at a landscape scale. Species' functional traits more closely reflect their ecological roles than taxonomy, therefore, adopting a functional approach allows us a better understanding of metacommunity structuring.

Limited connectivity of zooplankton communities across the Labrador Front: role of physical oceanography, insights from individual motility

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Near the western margin of the highly productive Labrador Sea, the Labrador Current creates a large and steep oceanographic front between the Arctic‐origin shelf waters and the Atlantic offshore waters (i.e. the Labrador Front), presumably segregating or accumulating plankton communities.

Multitrophic alpha and beta diversity of lake plankton across Canada

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Anthropogenic environmental changes impact freshwater biodiversity globally. While biodiversity assessments in freshwater environments have traditionally focused on individual groups of organisms or trophic levels, considering patterns of ‘multitrophic biodiversity' across the food web provides a more comprehensive view of anthropogenic impacts and ...

Calibrating p‐values in ecology: a practical framework for integrating prior plausibility into statistical inference

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Misinterpretation of p‐values, coupled with insufficient consideration of the prior plausibility of ecological hypotheses, leads to overconfident and often unreliable inference in ecological research. To address this issue, we present a methodological framework for p‐value calibration that reinterprets conventional p‐values through minimum Bayes ...
