Many freshwater systems receive substantial inputs of terrestrial organic matter. Terrestrially
derived dissolved organic carbon (t‐DOC) inputs can modify light availability, the spatial …

Fish are an important source of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid
(DHA) for birds, mammals and humans. In aquatic food webs, these highly unsaturated fatty …

In this thesis, we study a spatio–temporal prey–predator model of plankton. This model has
spatial interaction terms which represent a plankton dynamics that includes info–chemical …

We evaluated how eutrophication and humification impacted nutrient cycles and the
efficiency of carbon transfer in the planktonic food webs of 12 lakes in north-eastern Poland …

Gonyostomum semen (Ehrenb) Diesing is a bloom-forming and noxious phytoplankton
species, that usually occurs in brown-water lakes and which is often referred to as an …

Eutrophication has been one of the largest environmental problems in aquatic ecosystems
during the past decades, leading to dense, and often toxic, cyanobacterial blooms. In a way …

Lake restoration practices based on reducing fish predation and promoting the dominance
of large-bodied Daphni a grazers (ie, biomanipulation) have been the focus of much debate …

The invasive and nuisance microalga Gonyostomum semen has recently expanded its
geographical distribution and increased its biomass in Sweden and Finland. Temperatures …

The massive growth of large, toxic cyanobacteria in eutrophic waters has traditionally been
explained by their evolution of defences to herbivorous zooplankton. These conclusions …

Endocrine‐disrupting chemicals are known to alter the fitness of individual organisms via
changes in growth, behavior, and reproduction. It is largely unknown, however, whether …
