DOI: 10.1002/lno.11680
Abstract: To test the general assumption that global warming will induce body size reduction in aquatic organisms, we used a system of lakes continually heated for six decades by warm water discharge from power plants. Their… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/tox.23623
Abstract: The environmental impacts of plastic pollution have recently attracted universal attention, especially in the aquatic environment. However, research has mostly been focused on marine ecosystems, even though freshwater ecosystems are equally if not more polluted… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10201-020-00646-8
Abstract: Daphnia, keystone herbivores in lakes, routinely produce immediately hatching eggs; additionally, they also produce resting eggs enveloped by an ephippial case, a thickened carapace that allows population survival under harsh environmental conditions. To examine differences… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10452-021-09898-7
Abstract: According to the “temporal hybrid superiority hypothesis”, seasonal variability in environmental factors in temperate lakes gives hybrid clones within the D. longispina complex a temporary fitness advantage, thus allowing long-term, dynamic coexistence of hybrids and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10646-020-02257-6
Abstract: Daphnia has been widely used as an indicator species in aquatic biomonitoring for decades. Traditional toxicity assays based on lethality take a long time to assess, and the effect mode of contaminants is not clear.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-019-03983-7
Abstract: Bythotrephes longimanus is an invasive zooplankton predator, negatively impacting zooplankton abundance and diversity in North American lakes. Previous studies have shown that Daphnia populations in lakes move to deeper waters during the day, in the… read more here.
