Study on composition and abundance of zooplankton assemblages in Eğirdir Lake (Isparta, Turkey)
To determine the composition and abundance of zooplankton assemblages in Eğirdir Lake-Turkey, monthly surveys were conducted from January to December 2010 at four stations. A total of 65 major zooplankton species were identified. Rotifera was the most abundant taxon dominated mainly by the species Polyarthra dolichoptera and Keratella cochlearis. Rotifers were recorded at the maximum abundance ...

متن کاملMicrobial sulfur transformations in sediments from Subglacial Lake Whillans
Diverse microbial assemblages inhabit subglacial aquatic environments. While few of these environments have been sampled, data reveal that subglacial organisms gain energy for growth from reduced minerals containing nitrogen, iron, and sulfur. Here we investigate the role of microbially mediated sulfur transformations in sediments from Subglacial Lake Whillans (SLW), Antarctica, by examining ke...
متن کاملHydroecology of Amazonian lacustrine Arcellinida (testate amoebae): A case study from Lake Quistococha, Peru.
Organic rich sediments were obtained from seven core tops taken in Lake Quistococha, near the city of Iquitos in the Peruvian Amazon. Subsamples from 0 to 4cm depth in each core were analyzed under dissecting light microscopy to carry out the first investigation of Arcellinida (testate lobose amoebae) from a lacustrine environment in this ecologically important region. The fauna was characteriz...
متن کاملMicrobial Metabolism of Iron Species in Freshwater Lake Sediments
Sediments develop by sedimentation of organic and inorganic residues of primary and secondary production as well as by inorganic precipitates, e.g., metal hydroxides, carbonates, silicates, and phosphates. The accumulation of this material at the bottom of freshwater lakes leads to an intensification of mainly microbial degradative activities which oxidise and transform the organic freight with...
