Climate change–induced terrestrial matter runoff may decrease food web production in coastal ecosystems

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change is projected to cause elevated precipitation in northern Europe, leading to increased runoff of terrestrial matter to coastal areas. The consequences for food web production and ecosystem function remain unclear. A mesocosm experiment was performed to investigate the impacts of elevated terrestrial matter input, using a natural ...

Blooms of filamentous cyanobacteria reduce zooplankton quality and pelagic food web efficiency

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Cyanobacterial blooms in marine and freshwater ecosystems have increased in magnitude, frequency, and distribution worldwide during recent decades. Filamentous cyanobacteria are of unsuitable size for mesozooplankton feeding and of poorer nutritional quality than other phytoplankton taxa. The production and quality of higher trophic levels are
