متن کاملEnvironmental variables and plankton communities in the pelagic of lakes: enclosure experiment and comparative lake survey
Most phytoplankton production occurs in the turbulently mixed surface layer of lakes and oceans. Environmental factors such as mixed layer depth and background turbidity substantially influence the availability of essential, production-limiting resources, i.e., light and nutrients. We tested the predictions of a dynamic model concerning the effects of water column mixing depth and background tu...
متن کاملHigh diversity of protistan plankton communities in remote high mountain lakes in the European Alps and the Himalayan mountains
We analyzed the genetic diversity (V4 region of the 18S rRNA) of planktonic microbial eukaryotes in four high mountain lakes including two remote biogeographic regions (the Himalayan mountains and the European Alps) and distinct habitat types (clear and glacier-fed turbid lakes). The recorded high genetic diversity in these lakes was far beyond of what is described from high mountain lake plank...
متن کاملProductivity-Diversity Relationships in Lake Plankton Communities
One of the most intriguing environmental gradients connected with variation in diversity is ecosystem productivity. The role of diversity in ecosystems is pivotal, because species richness can be both a cause and a consequence of primary production. However, the mechanisms behind the varying productivity-diversity relationships (PDR) remain poorly understood. Moreover, large-scale studies on PD...
متن کاملRewilding ecological communities and rewiring ecological networks
Rewilding encompasses management actions such as reintroductions and translocations with the purpose of restoring ecological processes and ecosystem functions that were lost when species were locally extirpated. The success of a species introduction is conditioned by multiple factors, in particular, ecological interactions. To predict the fate of the introduced population and the community-leve...
