Microplastic Ingestion by Zooplankton [PDF]
Environmental Science & Technology, 2013 Small plastic detritus, termed "microplastics", are a widespread and ubiquitous contaminant of marine ecosystems across the globe. Ingestion of microplastics by marine biota, including mussels, worms, fish, and seabirds, has been widely reported, but despite their vital ecological role in marine food-webs, the impact of microplastics on zooplankton ...

Advection and zooplankton fitness [PDF]
Sarsia, 1998 Successful adaptation to the environment by zooplankton is constrained by the agents of mortality (starvation, predation) and losses due to advection.

Role of zooplanktonic functional groups in a shallow mesotrophic reservoir
Acta Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2023 : Aim Zooplankton functional groups play an important role in lake functioning and can readily respond to environmental changes and may be associated with phytoplankton changes.

Mechanism of barotaxis in marine zooplankton
eLife, 2023 Abstract Hydrostatic pressure is a dominant environmental cue for vertically migrating marine organisms but the physiological mechanisms of responding to pressure changes remain unclear. Here we uncovered the cellular and circuit bases of a barokinetic response in the planktonic larva of the marine annelid Platynereis dumerilii.

Statistical Mechanics of Zooplankton
PLOS ONE, 2015 Statistical mechanics provides the link between microscopic properties of many-particle systems and macroscopic properties such as pressure and temperature. Observations of similar "microscopic" quantities exist for the motion of zooplankton, as well as many species of other social animals.

Seasonal variation of zooplankton assemblages and their responses to water chemistry and microcystin content in shallow lakes in Thailand [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2023 This study examines zooplankton assemblage structure and density from five hypereutrophic urban shallow lakes between cool and hot periods in 2018-2019. We analyzed the variation of zooplankton and their relationship with environmental factors.
