Seasonal zooplankton community variation in Karatas Lake, Turkey
This study was carried out to determine seasonal variation and zooplankton community structure in Karataş Lake, Southern Turkey. Zooplankton samples were collected seasonally between 2002 and 2003 in two stations using a zooplankton net of 55-µm mesh size. A total of 42 taxa were identified, including 19 taxa (45.2 %) Rotifera, 16 taxa (38.1 %) Cladocera, and 7 taxa (16.7 %). Copepoda. Among th...

متن کاملShifts in Zooplankton Community Structure: Implications for Food Web Processes in the Upper San Francisco Estuary
Zooplankton are an important trophic link and a key food source for many larval fish species in estuarine ecosystems. The present study documents temporal and spatial zooplankton dynamics in Suisun Bay and the Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta—the landward portion of the San Francisco Estuary (California, USA)—over a 37year period (1972–2008). The zooplankton community experienced major changes in s...
متن کاملZooplankton sample variability in a tidal estuary :
A series of 347 vertical zooplankton hauls was made at a 175-h anchor station in the upper St. Lawrence estuary, Quebec, and current meter profiles were recorded. The 95% confidence interval of a single observation in most of the copepod time series was about 25400% of the mean. Temporal variability consisted for the most part of semidiurnal fluctuations superimposed on a long term trend. Other...
متن کاملVariability and predictability in a zooplankton community: The roles of disturbance and dispersal1
Disturbances are expected to increase variability and/or decrease predictability in ecosystems, while dispersal (or immigration) may have positive or negative effects on ecosystem stability. We conducted a mesocosm experiment with pelagic zooplankton to examine the independent and interactive effects of a nutrient pulse and immigration from neighbouring lakes on (a) temporal variation in the me...
