Caught Between Macrophytes and Human Impact: Zooplankton Facing Multiple Stressors in Tropical Waters

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Tropical freshwater systems host diverse and functionally important zooplankton communities that are increasingly threatened by multiple stressors. Here, we assessed how land‐use disturbance, local environmental conditions and macrophyte structure influence zooplankton richness, abundance and composition in Amazonian ponds and streams.

A Pan‐European Whole‐Microbiome Study of Wastewater Influent: Prokaryotes, Protists, Fungi, and Metazoa

open access: yesJournal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbial communities entering wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) through untreated sewage represent an important interface between human, environmental, and treatment‐associated microbiomes, yet our understanding of their biogeography remains poorly resolved, particularly for microbial eukaryotes.

Is it possible to simplify environmental monitoring? Approaches with zooplankton in a hydroelectric reservoir

open access: yesActa Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2017
Aim: In order to contribute to the knowledge about the simplification of biological surveys, this study evaluated the use of substitute groups, numeric and taxonomic resolution for the three main groups of zooplankton (cladocerans, copepods and rotifers)

Beyond the Cascade Dams: Scale‐Dependent Effects on Zooplankton Stability in River Ecosystems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Cascade dams alter river zooplankton community stability, but how regulating factors act across local and regional spatial scales is poorly understood. Using field sampling and structural equation modeling, we revealed divergent scale‐dependent responses of zooplankton stability to dams—local stability depended on biodiversity, while regional stability

Faunistic analysis of freshwater zooplankton in small rock pools of Maritime Antarctica

open access: yesУкраїнський антарктичний журнал, 2022
Small water bodies like the rock pools are used as a model system for evolutionary and environmental studies with a growing interest. The zooplankton in the rock pools is a most interesting and promising research object.

Metagenomic Insights Into Red Sea Biodiversity Across the Web of Life

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 8, August 2026.
Deep‐sequencing shotgun metagenomics of Red Sea benthic sediments reveals biodiversity across the web of life, from viruses to animals. Despite the strong dominance of prokaryotic DNA, low‐abundance eukaryotic reads capture broad taxonomic diversity. Open‐ocean communities are primarily structured by depth, whereas coastal eukaryotic communities follow

The Biodiversity of Retreating Glaciers Leaves an Ecological Legacy in Emerging Soil Communities

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
We provide the first multi‐taxa assessment of biodiversity transitions across the supraglacial‐proglacial interface, using eDNA metabarcoding across five glacier systems. Recently deglaciated soils resemble supraglacial communities taxonomically and functionally, markedly for microbes and weakly for animals, with microbial similarity declining rapidly ...

A Preliminary Study on Using Rotifera Fauna to Determine The Trophic Level of The Büyükçekmece Reservoir (İstanbul, Turkey)

open access: yesAquatic Sciences and Engineering, 2019
In this study, the abundance of rotifera fauna, in the Büyükçekmece Reservoir (İstanbul) and some physicochemical features of the reservoir, were investigated between May 2009 and February 2010.
