The impact of fish predation and cyanobacteria on zooplankton size structure in 96 subtropical lakes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Zooplankton are relatively small in size in the subtropical regions. This characteristic has been attributed to intense predation pressure, high nutrient loading and cyanobacterial biomass.

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.

Trophic state (TSISD) and mixing type significantly influence pelagic zooplankton biodiversity in temperate lakes (NW Poland) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background Lake depth and the consequent mixing regime and thermal structure have profound effects on ecosystem functioning, because depth strongly affects the availability of nutrients, light, and oxygen.

Questioning the rise of gelatinous zooplankton in the World's oceans [PDF]
, 2012 During the past several decades, high numbers of gelatinous zooplankton species have been reported in many estuarine and coastal ecosystems. Coupled with media-driven public perception, a paradigm has evolved in which the global ocean ecosystems are ...

Bioavailability and effects of microplastics on marine zooplankton: A review.
Environmental Pollution, 2019 Microplastics are abundant and widespread in the marine environment. They are a contaminant of global environmental and economic concern. Due to their small size a wide range of marine species, including zooplankton can ingest them.

Bioavailability of Microplastics to Marine Zooplankton: Effect of Shape and Infochemicals.
Environmental Science and Technology, 2020 The underlying mechanisms that influence microplastic ingestion in marine zooplankton remain poorly understood. Here, we investigate how microplastics of a variety of shapes (bead, fiber, and fragment), in combination with the algal-derived infochemicals

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.
