Warming and predation drive rapid evolution of ecosystem functioning but not functional traits

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Global environmental change can rapidly reshape phenotypic trait distributions through adaptive and neutral processes. Yet, disentangling their relative contributions remains a major challenge, particularly for traits underpinning ecosystem functioning.

Impact of seasonal changes in zooplankton biodiversity in Ukkadam Lake, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India, and potential future implications of climate change

open access: yesJournal of Basic and Applied Zoology, 2018
Background Zooplankton biodiversity serves as an ecological indicator of aquatic environment due to their rapid response according to environmental changes. At the present study, impact of seasonal changes on zooplankton biodiversity was conducted in the

Zooplankton fecal pellets as a vector transporting microplastics and associated toxins to the deep ocean

open access: yes, 2022
Toxins within the fecal pellets of zooplankton were measured along a transect from Hawaii to San Diego, passing through the southern edge of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.

Zooplankton ecology [Índice e Prefácio] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This book aims at providing students and researchers an advanced integrative overview on zooplankton ecology, covering marine and freshwater organisms, from microscopic phagotrophic protists, to macro-jellyfishes and active fish larvae.

Carbon cycling and POC turnover in the mesopelagic zone of the ocean: Insights from a simple model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Carbon budgets of the mesopelagic zone are poorly constrained, highlighting our lack of understanding of the biota that inhabit this environment and their role in the cycling and sequestering of carbon in the deep ocean.

Resource Availability Modulates Effects of Fluorine Free Firefighting Foams

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fluorine‐free foam (F3) alternatives that lack per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are rapidly being adopted for firefighting operations and will be entering ecosystems. Despite this, little is known about their impact on freshwater communities.

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

open access: yesJournal 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

Wildfire Ash Alters Freshwater Crustacean Behavior: Disentangling the Contributions of Suspended Macroparticles and Ash‐Induced Alkalinization

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change and anthropogenic ignitions are intensifying wildfire frequency worldwide, elevating the risk of freshwater contamination by ash. In water, dissolved ash releases ions and other toxic constituents that increase pH and alter physicochemical conditions, while suspended ash particles may impose mechanical stress, disrupt behavior ...

Critical constraints to ecological buffering in a rapidly changing Arctic: A long‐term seabird study

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Drawing on two decades of research in East Greenland, this study shows that little auks, key seabird indicators of Arctic ecosystem health, can adapt to rapid environmental change through behavioural flexibility. However, increasing storms and mercury pollution are pushing resilience to its limits, providing an early warning of broader Arctic ...
