Climate-driven zooplankton shifts cause large-scale declines in food quality for fish
Zooplankton are the primary energy pathway from phytoplankton to fish. Yet, there is limited understanding about how climate change will modify zooplankton communities and the implications for marine food webs globally.

Abstract Worldwide, lacustrine ecosystems are threatened by eutrophication and deoxygenation. Both processes are driven by the combined effects of human activities and climate change. Understanding the pre‐anthropogenic nexus between warming, eutrophication, deoxygenation, and related feedback is essential to determine how lakes respond to rapid ...

A systematic 15N‐amino‐acid tracer framework to identify sources of pelagic marine organic matter
Abstract Accurately tracing organic matter sources in marine systems remains challenging, particularly where natural and anthropogenic inputs coexist. Compound‐specific stable isotope analysis of amino acids (CSIA‐AA) offers strong potential for organic matter source discrimination, but its application is limited by the small number of validated δ15N ...

Is DNA metabarcoding an option for formaldehyde‐preserved zooplankton time series?
Abstract The recovery of amplifiable DNA from formaldehyde‐fixed (FF) zooplankton samples has long been considered problematic, but advances in degraded‐DNA retrieval have renewed interest in FF samples. To access the information stored in long‐term zooplankton time series, we evaluated methods for extracting amplifiable DNA from community samples ...

Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...

Zooplankton response to organic carbon level in lakes of differing trophic states
Water eutrophication is associated with an increase in the organic carbon content (both particulate and dissolved forms), which may affect the functioning of the zooplankton community.

Modelling encounter rates and distribution of mobile predators and prey [PDF]
Marine ecosystem models often contain modules for two phytoplankton compartments (flagellates and diatoms) and two zooplankton groups (micro- and mesozooplankton).

Method‐dependent differences in zooplankton abundance and size metrics: Microscopy vs. ZooScan
Abstract Image‐based approaches such as ZooScan are increasingly used for high‐throughput zooplankton monitoring. However, quantitative evaluations of methodological differences relative to conventional microscopy remain limited. In this study, zooplankton abundance and size‐based metrics obtained from microscopy and ZooScan image analysis were ...
