Potential for large-bodied zooplankton and dreissenids to alter the productivity and autotrophic structure of lakes.
While limnological studies have emphasized the importance of grazers on algal biomass and primary production in pelagic habitats, few studies have examined their potential role in altering total ecosystem primary production and it's partitioning between pelagic and benthic habitats. We modified an existing ecosystem production model to include biotic feedbacks associated with two groups of larg...
متن کاملDiel vertical migration and spatial overlap between fish larvae and zooplankton in two tropical lakes, Brazil.
The effect of fish larvae on the diel vertical migration of the zooplankton community was investigated in two tropical lakes, Finado Raimundo and Pintado lakes, Mato Grosso do Sul State, Brazil. Nocturnal and diurnal samplings were conducted in the limnetic region of each lake for 10 consecutive months from April 2008 to January 2009. The zooplankton community presented a wide range of response...
متن کاملThe Impact of Fish Predation and Cyanobacteria on Zooplankton Size Structure in 96 Subtropical Lakes
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. To provide further information on the effect of predation and cyanobacteria on zooplankton size structure, we analyzed data from 96 shallow aquaculture lakes along the Yangtze River. Contrary to former studi...
متن کاملExtrinsic and intrinsic controls of zooplankton diversity in lakes.
Pelagic crustacean zooplankton were collected from 336 Norwegian lakes covering a wide range of latitude, altitude, lake area, mean depth, production (as chlorophyll a), and fish community structure. Mean zooplankton species richness during the ice-free season was generally low at high latitudes and altitudes. Further, lower species richness was recorded in western lakes, possibly reflecting co...
متن کاملZooplankton Ecology and Palaeoecology in Nutrient Enriched Shallow Lakes
This study sought to determine the potential of sedimentary cladoceran assemblages for inferring changes in shallow lake ecological structure and function. The first stage o f the study aimed to isolate and quantify the main structuring forces of the contemporary zooplankton community. Zooplankton populations were sampled from 39 mesotrophic to hyper-eutrophic shallow lakes (<3 m average depth)...
