How does aquaculture activity affect phytoplankton functional groups in Gaoyou Lake, China

Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2023
Aquaculture in lakes is an important human activity that could accelerate eutrophication. Its impacts on aquatic ecosystems have attracted extensive attention. This study was carried out in Gaoyou Lake, China.

Phytoplankton Biogeography and Community Stability in the Ocean

PLoS ONE, 2010
Despite enormous environmental variability linked to glacial/interglacial climates of the Pleistocene, we have recently shown that marine diatom communities evolved slowly through gradual changes over the past 1.5 million years. Identifying the causes of this ecological stability is key for understanding the mechanisms that control the tempo and mode ...

Succession of phytoplankton in a shallow lake under the alternating influence of runoff and reverse water transfer

Hydrology Research, 2020
Both runoff and water diversion can interfere with the physical and chemical environment of a lake and affect aquatic organisms. In this study, previously obtained data were used to analyze the phytoplankton community, water quality, water level, and ...

Response of the Phytoplankton Sinking Rate to Community Structure and Environmental Factors in the Eastern Indian Ocean

Plants, 2022
The phytoplankton sinking rate in the eastern Indian Ocean was measured during spring 2017 based on the SETCOL method. The range of phytoplankton sinking rates was −0.291 to 2.188 md−1, with an average of 0.420 ± 0.646 md−1.

Tolerance of polar phytoplankton communities to metals

Environmental Pollution, 2014
Large amounts of pollutants reach polar regions, particularly the Arctic, impacting their communities. In this study we analyzed the toxic levels of Hg, Cd and Pb to natural phytoplankton communities of the Arctic and Southern Oceans, and compared their sensitivities with those observed on phytoplankton natural communities from temperate areas.

Exploring the key factors affecting the seasonal variation of phytoplankton in the coastal Yellow Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Marine phytoplankton play crucial roles in the ocean’s biological pump and have great impacts on global biogeochemical cycles, yet the knowledge of environmental variables controlling their seasonal dynamics needs to be improved further, especially in ...

Storm impacts on phytoplankton community dynamics in lakes. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol, 2020
AbstractIn many regions across the globe, extreme weather events such as storms have increased in frequency, intensity, and duration due to climate change. Ecological theory predicts that such extreme events should have large impacts on ecosystem structure and function. High winds and precipitation associated with storms can affect lakes via short‐term

Distribution of phytoplankton functional types in high-nitrate low-chlorophyll waters in a new diagnostic ecological indicator model [PDF]

, 2013
Modeling and monitoring plankton functional types (PFTs) is challenged by insufficient amount of field measurements to ground-truth both plankton models and bio-optical algorithms.

Bivalve Grazing Can Shape Phytoplankton Communities [PDF]

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2016
The ability of bivalve filter feeders to limit phytoplankton biomass in shallow waters is well-documented, but the role of bivalves in shaping phytoplankton communities is not. The coupled effect of bivalve grazing at the sediment-water interface and sinking of phytoplankton cells to that bottom filtration zone could influence the relative biomass of ...
