Determining the lipid content and fatty acid (FA) composition of aquatic organisms has been
of major interest in trophic ecology, aquaculture, and nutrition for over half a century …

Phenotypic plasticity in defensive traits is an appropriate mechanism to cope with the
variable hazard of a frequently changing predator spectrum. In the animal kingdom these so …

Sterols are essential dietary nutrients for most aquatic invertebrates and an inadequate
dietary sterol supply can adversely influence various life history traits. The sterol composition …

Organism growth can be limited either by a single resource or by multiple resources
simultaneously (co‐limitation). Efforts to characterise co‐limitation have generated two …

The effects of multiple stressors are difficult to separate in field studies, and their interactions
may be hard to predict if studied in isolation. We studied the effects of decreasing food …

Although plasma membranes benefit cells by regulating the flux of materials to and from the
environment, these membranes cost energy to maintain. Because smaller cells provide …

Zooplankton displays different inducible defenses against invertebrate and vertebrate
predators. The response pattern to gape‐limited invertebrate predators involves increased …

In the Mediterranean basin, the globally increasing temperatures are expected to be
accompanied by longer heat waves. Commonly assumed to benefit cold-limited invasive …

Fatty acids (FA) in lake zooplankton are largely provided by dietary FA and affected by
taxonomic composition of zooplankton, temperature, and other environmental conditions …

Surface waters are warming due to climate change, potentially pushing aquatic organisms
closer to their thermal tolerance limits. However, cyanobacterial blooms are expected to …
