What Drives the Changing Characteristics of Plankton in Floodplain Lakes: Season, Environmental Factors, or Lake Characteristics? [PDF]
In this study, we conducted investigations and monitoring on lakes during the wet season and dry season. We studied the structure, taxonomic/functional diversity, community assembly, and niche differentiation of plankton communities, analyzed the biogeographical patterns of plankton communities, and explored the driving factors affecting plankton ...

Zooplankton communities in a river downstream from a lake restored with hypolimnetic withdrawal
Restoring lakes with hypolimnetic withdrawal can severely threaten water quality and biocenosis downstream. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of lake restoration on riverine zooplankton during a period of intense hypolimnion water ...

The role of paleolimnology in climate and environment reconstruction and lake restoration in light of research on selected bioindicators [PDF]
Paleolimnologists and ecologists study biotic and abiotic variables to track long-term and short-term environment changes. Microscopic invertebrates, phytoplankton of freshwater ecosystems, and pollen grains have been extensively studied during the last ...

Rotifera from Burundi : the Lecanidae (Rotifera : Monogononta) [PDF]
As part of a survey of the rotifer fauna of Burundi, Lecanidae from Kashira and the floodplain of the river Rusizi in Northwest Burundi are reported. Thirty-four species of Lecane were found. Twenty-five of them are new to Burundi, raising the total Burundian Lecane record to thirty-five. Three species, Lecane aeganea Harring, 1914, L.

Tardigrades and oribatid mites in bryophytes from geothermally active lava fields (Krafla, Iceland) and the description of Pilatobius islandicus sp. nov. (Eutardigrada) [PDF]
In polar regions, apart from tundra and glaciers, geothermally active areas with elevated temperatures are important elements of ecosystems. One such geothermally active region characterized by mosaic ecosystems and vast areas covered by recent lava ...

Riding the Storm: Microeukaryote Community Responses to Hurricane Disturbance. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Sandy beaches are dynamic ecosystems where terrestrial and marine organisms coexist, resulting in diverse communities where microeukaryotes (protists, microalgae, and meiofauna) are key drivers. Understanding their diversity patterns and responses to stressors is essential for elucidating ecological processes, yet information on this subject ...
