The relative importance of regional and local factors in shaping zooplankton diversity in high-altitude tropical shallow lakes

Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2020
In Brazil, although, high-altitude shallow lakes comprise large parts of conservation units and are considered highly important environments for biodiversity studies, little is known about the factors that regulate the zooplankton community.

Spatial and Seasonal Variations in the Stable Isotope Values and Trophic Positions of Dominant Zooplankton Groups in Jiaozhou Bay, China

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The spatial and seasonal distributions of stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes (δ13C and δ15N) in dominant zooplankton groups were investigated in Jiaozhou Bay.

Relationships between acoustic scattering layers and ocean stratification: An acoustic approach to estimate mixed layer depth

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Ocean stratification, measured as mixed layer depth (MLD), is an important feature that influences many processes in the ocean; for example, by mediating the fluxes of momentum, heat and crucially key gases such as CO2 and oxygen from the atmosphere into the water column and vice versa. The conventional methods to measure stratification (e.g.,

Improved COI taxonomic assignment workflow enhances detection of invertebrates in environmental DNA

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is an increasingly popular and powerful tool in ecology, offering a non‐invasive method to assess biodiversity and monitor ecosystem health across diverse environments. While the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene is one of the most widely used markers for studying eukaryotic ...

Structural Organization of Zooplankton Communities in Different Types of River Mouth Areas

Diversity, 2023
The gradients of hydrological, hydrophysical, and hydrochemical conditions form the transition zones in river mouth areas. These areas are considered ecotones in the presence of the edge effect.

Sediment trap preservative choice impacts particle‐associated microbial community composition

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding and quantifying the microbial contribution to particulate organic matter (POM) flux and carbon cycling in the ocean relies largely on the collection of sinking POM. A critical aspect of evaluating microbial communities on sediment trap‐collected POM is their preservation until recovery and sample processing.

Behind the impact of introduced trout in high altitude lakes: adult, not juvenile fish are responsible of the selective predation on crustacean zooplankton

Journal of Limnology, 2014
Introduced fish seriously affect zooplankton communities in mountain lakes, often leading to the loss of large species. Selective predation is recognized to be the ultimate cause of such a strong impact. Here we describe the selection of zooplankton prey

The IceShark, an effective method for sampling plankton under sea ice

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Seasonal sea ice plays a crucial role in shaping coastal ecosystem dynamics throughout the circumpolar region. Of particular interest to oceanographers is the ice‐ocean interface which functions as a multidimensional habitat, supporting both sympagic algae and pelagic phytoplankton in the under‐ice surface waters.
