Harmful cyanobacterial blooms have caused several problems in freshwater environments
due to their prolific growth and the harmful cyanotoxins produced by some species. The …

A review was carried out on the freshwater zooplankton in Brazil, between 1900 and 2021,
based on 1014 studies, and the main trends were pointed. There was an increase of studies …

Presence of optimal levels of dissolved oxygen (above critical level of 4.5 mg L− 1) and
presence of zooplankton community are indicators of good water quality of an aquatic …

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 …

Abstract β-Diversity can be driven by different factors, and it is necessary to understand how
the characteristics of communities contribute to biodiversity. We investigated composition …

Eutrophication is a process characterized by an increase in the aquatic system productivity,
which causes profound changes in the structure of its communities. Owing to the high …

The long-term implications of rapid urbanization on water and soil quality have raised
concern in recent years. The expansion of urban occupation in riparian zones contributes to …

Zooplankton are widely recognised as being regulated primarily by predators and food
availability. In reservoirs, the quantity and quality of food resources are generally affected by …

Time-series models have vast advantages in the study of dynamic systems, especially if the
aims are to determine structure and stability of population or finding regime shifts in dynamic …

A limnological investigation involving physical, chemical and biological aspects was
undertaken in five tropical upland lakes (Violão− Vl, Amendoim− Am, and Três Irmãs− TI1 …
