The elemental and fatty acid composition of seston was studied for 3 years, from May to
October, in a small Reservoir. Under comparatively low C: P ratio, multivariate canonical …

Since the 1990s the Río de La Plata basin has been widely colonized by the invader
mollusk Limnoperna fortunei. In spite of a relatively well-developed knowledge of the …

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 …

Understanding the factors that regulate the abundance, size structure and community
structure of cladocerans is an important goal of aquatic ecologists. While both top-down and …

We conducted a monitoring study on the dynamics of the abundance, biomass, and vertical
distribution of the cryptophyte population in meromictic saline Lake Shira (90.11 E, 54.30 N) …

The invasive freshwater mussel Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857) has spread widely
throughout Asia and South America, especially via interbasin water diversion and …

Abstract During two vegetation seasons (2004–2005), we compared feeding spectra of
Arctodiaptomus salinus (Calanoida, Copepoda) populations inhabiting two neighboring salt …

Biomanipulation, through the reduction of fish abundance resulting in an increase of large
filter feeders and a stronger top-down control on algae, is commonly used as a lake …

One of the features of Gonyostomum semen, a bloom-forming and expansive flagellate, is
uneven distribution in the vertical water column often observed in humic lakes. In this paper …

The assemblage patterns of pelagic Cladocera species were investigated in a meso-
eutrophic reservoir from January 2000 to December 2002. Trends of environmental factors …
