Habitat orientation alters the outcome of interspecific competition: A microcosm study with zooplankton grazers
Habitat orientation has recently been demonstrated to affect the foraging behavior, growth, and production of plankton grazers. Because the orientation effect may vary with species, we hypothesize that habitat orientation may alter interspecific interactions between animal species. We experimentally investigated how habitat orientation (placing cuboid chambers in three orientations with long, m...
متن کاملPhytoplankton-zooplankton dynamics in periodic environments taking into account eutrophication.
In this paper, we derive and analyze a mathematical model for the interactions between phytoplankton and zooplankton in a periodic environment, in which the growth rate and the intrinsic carrying-capacity of phytoplankton are changing with respect to time and nutrient concentration. A threshold value: "Predator's average growth rate" is introduced and it is proved that the phytoplankton-zooplan...
متن کاملNutrient-phytoplankton-zooplankton models with a toxin
Models of nutrient-plankton interaction with a toxic substance that inhibits either the growth rate of phytoplankton, zooplankton or both populations are proposed and studied. For simplicity, it is assumed that both nutrient and the toxin have the same constant input and washout rate. The effects of toxin upon the existence, magnitude, and stability of the steady states are examined. Numerical ...
متن کاملSPATIOTEMPORAL DYNAMIC OF TOXIN PRODUCING PHYTOPLANKTON (TPP)-ZOOPLANKTON INTERACTION
The present paper deals with a toxin producing phytoplankton (TPP)-zooplankton interaction in spatial environment in thecontext of phytoplankton bloom. In the absence of diffusion the stability of the given system in terms of co-existence and hopf bifurcation has been discussed. After that TPP-zooplankton interaction is considered in spatiotemporal domain by assuming self diffusion in both popu...
متن کاملEffect of demographic noise in a phytoplankton-zooplankton model of bloom dynamics.
An extension of the Truscott-Brindley model [Bull. Math. Biol. 56, 981 (1994)] is derived to account for the effect of demographic fluctuations. In the presence of seasonal forcing and sufficiently shallow water conditions, the fluctuations induced by the discreteness of the zooplankton component appear sufficient to cause switching between the bloom and no-bloom cycles predicted at the mean-fi...
