Epiphytic biofilms in freshwater and interactions with macrophytes: Current understanding and future directions
Epiphytic biofilm is an important component in freshwater ecosystems and is one of the main
primary producers in shallow freshwater ecosystems. The epiphytic biofilm is comprised of …

The influence of dissolved organic carbon on primary production in northern lakes
Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations in lakes are changing globally, but little is
known about potential ecosystem impacts. We evaluated the relationship between DOC and …

From Greenland to green lakes: cultural eutrophication and the loss of benthic pathways in lakes
Y Vadeboncoeur, E Jeppesen… - Limnology and …, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
Benthic community responses to lake eutrophication are poorly understood relative to
pelagic responses. We compared phytoplankton and periphyton productivity along a …

Microplastics impair amphibian survival, body condition and function
Microplastics (MPs) are contaminants of increasing concern; they are abundant, ubiquitous
and persistent over time, representing potential risks for organisms and ecosystems …

Ecological impacts of winter water level drawdowns on lake littoral zones: a review
JR Carmignani, AH Roy - Aquatic Sciences, 2017 - Springer
Freshwater littoral zones harbor diverse ecological communities and serve numerous
ecosystem functions that are controlled, in part, by natural water level fluctuations. However …

The significance of biofilms to human, animal, plant and ecosystem health
Biofilms are matrix‐enclosed communities that represent the most dominant and active
mode of microbial life on Earth. Because biofilms are inherently more productive than any …

Putting the lake back together 20 years later: what in the benthos have we learned about habitat linkages in lakes?
MJ Vander Zanden, Y Vadeboncoeur - Inland Waters, 2020 - Taylor & Francis
Our understanding of lake ecosystems has undergone a paradigm shift over the past few
decades. While the classic tradition in limnology has been the study of planktonic, open …
