The development of cyanobacteria blooms is of increasing concern in many lakes
worldwide, and as a result, modeling their predictors is vital for understanding where and …

How grazer selectivity regulates the primary producer community is a core topic in ecology.
Yet, the role of zooplankton grazing selection on phytoplankton dynamics is poorly …

Top-down grazer control of cyanobacteria is a controversial topic due to conflicting reports of
success and failure as well as a bias toward studies in temperate climates with large …

We evaluated the main environmental factors (abiotic and biotic) driving the phytoplankton
community in a shallow tropical reservoir located in an environmentally protected area …

The effects of exposure to mining tailings on water quality and biota of tropical lacustrine
ecosystems remain poorly understood. We tested the hypothesis that after mining tailing …

Tragic incidents involving mine tailings spills have impacted many aquatic ecosystems
around the world. The massive mine tailings dam collapse of Fundão, which occurred in …

Phytoplankton anti-grazer traits control zooplankton grazing and are associated with harmful
blooms. Yet, how morphological versus chemical phytoplankton defenses regulate …

Zooplankton plays a pivotal role in lentic water bodies, linking planktonic primary producers
to higher trophic levels and being a cornerstone of the planktonic food web of ponds and …

Although zooplankton grazing on cyanobacteria is a key process regulating the structure
and function of bloom‐dominated waters, few studies have measured in situ ingestion and …

Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (CHABs) are a global public health threat. While
CHABs are often promoted by nutrients, an important and often overlooked influence on …
