Heatwave‐induced functional shifts in zooplankton communities result in weaker top‐down control on phytoplankton

Sign Up to like & get
recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.70096

Abstract: Abstract Freshwater ecosystems are increasingly affected by rising annual mean temperatures and heatwaves. While heatwaves are expected to have more immediate effects than mean temperature increases on local communities, comparative experimental studies are largely lacking.… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8972

Abstract: Abstract Freshwater ecosystems face multiple threats to their stability globally. Poyang Lake is the largest lake in China, but its habitat has been seriously degraded because of human activities and natural factors (e.g. climate change),… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9622

Abstract: Abstract Parasites form an integral part of food webs, however, they are often ignored in classic food web theory or limited to the investigation of trophic transmission pathways. Specifically, direct consumption of parasites by nonhost… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2018 at "Ecosphere"

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.2332

Abstract: Lakes and reservoirs worldwide are increasingly experiencing depletion of dissolved oxygen (anoxia) in their bottom waters (the hypolimnion) because of climate change and eutrophication, which is altering the dynamics of many freshwater ecological communities. Hypolimnetic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.3081

Abstract: Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is recognized as a driving force for phenotypic divergence. Here, we aim at assessing the ability of zooplankton to induce UVR tolerance and disentangle the relative importance of local adaptations behind the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.4014

Abstract: Bet-hedging is an ecological risk-aversion strategy where a population does not commit all its effort towards a single reproductive event or specific environmental condition, and instead spreads the risk to include multiple reproductive events or… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/lno.10653

Abstract: Within the last decade, calcium decline has emerged as a stressor for many soft water lakes. A legacy of long-term acid deposition and logging, calcium decline has been implicated in the loss of large herbivores,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/lno.11161

Abstract: We determined the stable nitrogen isotope composition (δ15N values) and body size of taxonomic groups in a zooplankton community in the Cantabrian Sea (southern Bay of Biscay) to explore seasonal and depth (0–2000 m) variations in… read more here.

Can zooplankton on the North American Great Plains “keep up” with climate‐driven salinity change?

Sign Up to like & get
recommendations! Published in 2020 at "Limnology and Oceanography"

DOI: 10.1002/lno.11647

Abstract: The Great Plains of North America are projected to become more arid as the climate changes over the next century. Salinity levels for lakes in this region are linked to climate, suggesting that lakes will… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Limnology and Oceanography"

DOI: 10.1002/lno.12539

Abstract: Northern lakes are facing rapid environmental alterations—including warming, browning, and/or changes in nutrient concentrations—driven by climate change. These environmental changes can have profound impacts on the synthesis and trophic transfer of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA),… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/lno.12568

Abstract: Anthropogenic activities, including climate change, are hypothesized to cause increases in gelatinous zooplankton population sizes and blooms. In the most rapidly changing ecosystem, the Arctic Ocean, this hypothesis has not yet been verified, and gelatinous… read more here.
