Trophic Status of Lake Niesłysz (Poland) and Related Factors

open access: yesWater
In order to ensure the protection of lakes against eutrophication, an ongoing global problem, its causes should be determined on an individual basis. In this study, we investigated Lake Niesłysz in northwestern Poland in terms of (i) the impact of nitrogen and phosphorus on primary production, (ii) the Trophic State Index (TSI), and (iii) the ...

The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Trophic classification of Tennessee Valley area reservoirs derived from LANDSAT multispectral scanner data [PDF]

open access: yes
LANDSAT MSS data from four different dates were extracted from computer tapes using a semiautomated digital data handling and analysis system. Reservoirs were extracted from the surrounding land matrix by using a Band 7 density level slice of 3; and ...

Post-drought leads to increasing metabolic rates in the surface waters of a natural tropical lake

open access: yesFrontiers in Geochemistry
As hotspots of the global carbon cycle, lakes can regulate climate change while being regulated by it via a feedback loop. As ecosystem metabolism is considered to be a sentinel to these changes, we used high-frequency measurements and the inverse ...

Placental crises: disruptive selection and maternal under‐investment as the foundations of mammalian placental evolution and dysfunction

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among the vertebrates, mammals are notable for the dominance of live birth and placental nutrition. The structural diversity of the mammalian placenta is remarkable, despite sharing a single common ancestor and conserved physiological functions.

Bottom-pelagic links of hydrobionts in the Kara Sea according to data on δ15N and δ13C and feeding of fish

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО
To compare trophic properties in pelagic and benthic communities of the Kara Sea, isotopic composition of carbon and nitrogen (δ13C and δ15N) was examined in tissues of zooplankton, zoobenthos, and fish.

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...
