Effects of the invasive red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) on eelgrass-dominated clearwater lakes: the role of bioturbation Hydrobiologia (IF 2.6) Pub Date : 2024-05-01
Abstract The invasive red swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii (Girard, 1852) can affect freshwater ecosystems, their macrophyte communities in various ways. To examine the effects of red swamp crayfish on clearwater macrophyte-dominated lakes, we performed a 28-day mesocosm experiment, without and with presence of red swamp crayfish, with or without access to sediments using netting. All in the presence

Algae–zooplankton relationships during the year-round cyanobacterial blooms in a shallow lake Hydrobiologia (IF 2.6) Pub Date : 2024-05-01
Abstract Cyanobacterial blooms have a strong impact on the food web structure, interactions and ecosystem functioning. The aim of this study was to describe the seasonal changes in composition and abundance of heterotrophic nanoflagellates, ciliates, rotifers, and crustaceans in relation to algae and nutrients in a shallow eutrophic lake (north-eastern Poland) dominated by cyanobacteria and exposed

Abstract The von Bertalanffy growth function has been widely used by hydrobiologists to study the lifetime pattern of somatic growth in fishes. Recently, the new ontogenetic growth model has been introduced as a special case of the von Bertalanffy equation based on allometric scaling which has also been of particular importance since it offers the basic tools for deriving allometric associations for

We found little overlap in the distribution of amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) between the three habitats and between water bodies. The differences were caused by environmental

Niche and neutral-based processes differ in importance for common and rare species in a metacommunity of anurans in subtropical grasslands Hydrobiologia (IF 2.6) Pub Date : 2024-01-30
Abstract Most species-rich communities consist of a limited number of common species and many rare species. This widespread ecological pattern can arise due to the predominance of either niche-based or neutral-based processes in community structuring. We tested two hypotheses related to this pattern for an anuran metacommunity composed of 35 species distributed in 187 ponds in the South Brazilian grasslands:

Abstract Leaf litter decomposition is a key ecosystem process in headwater streams, influenced by physical fragmentation, microbial degradation and feeding activity by stream biota. In some tropical streams, feeding by freshwater shrimps can exert strong top-down control on leaf litter decomposition, however, variation in shrimp macroconsumer effects across small spatial scales or among years is not

Nutrient release dynamics in relation to stages of Lagarosiphon major decay following treatment with diquat herbicide Hydrobiologia (IF 2.6) Pub Date : 2024-01-24
Abstract Herbicide treated weed beds release nutrients into the water column and have been implicated in providing ‘fuel’ for algal blooms. Here we assess the timing and magnitude of nutrient releases in relation to the visual signs of plant damage post-herbicide treatment. Lagarosiphon major shoots were exposed to one of eleven different diquat concentrations ranging from 0 to 1 mg l−1 for 1, 10 or

Abstract Techniques to control the phototactic behaviour of fish have expanded with progress in LED lights. However, the phototaxis direction of fish could be reversible at some light intensities, and thus it is necessary to evaluate the light-intensity levels that will induce repulsion or attraction behaviour to understand the transition. This study determined the light intensities of white LED light
