Zooplankton response to climate warming: a mesocosm experiment at contrasting temperatures and nutrient levels
Zooplankton community response to the combined effects of nutrients and fish (hereafter N + F) at contrasting temperatures was studied in a long-term experiment conducted in 24 shallow lake mesocosms with low ...

Effects of water temperature on summer periphyton biomass in shallow lakes: a pan-European mesocosm experiment
Periphyton communities play an important role in shallow lakes and are controlled by direct forces such as temperature, light, nutrients, and invertebrate grazing, but also indirectly by planktivorous fish pre...

The influence of nutrient loading, climate and water depth on nitrogen and phosphorus loss in shallow lakes: a pan-European mesocosm experiment
Losses of phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) have important influences on in-lake concentrations and nutrient loading to downstream ecosystems. We performed a series of mesocosm experiments along a latitudinal gr...

Effects of nutrient and water level changes on the composition and size structure of zooplankton communities in shallow lakes under different climatic conditions: a pan-European mesocosm experiment
Lentic ecosystems act as sentinels of climate change, and evidence exists that their sensitivity to warming varies along a latitudinal gradient. We assessed the effects of nutrient and water level variability ...

Toxicity of atrazine and the products of its homogeneous photocatalytic degradation on the aquatic organisms Lemna minor and Daphnia magna
Usage of atrazine, a widely used herbicide, is now banned in many countries. Although forbidden to use, significant concentration of this herbicide is still present in the environment. The study focused not on...

Toxicity assessment of verapamil and its photodegradation products
Pathways of photochemical degradation of a cardiovascular drug verapamil under conditions relevant to natural waters and the toxicity of the photoproducts to Daphnia magna were investigated. Photodegradation was ...

Drivers of plant species composition of ecotonal vegetation in two fishpond management types
Plants play an important role in fishpond littorals, but little is known about factors influencing their presence and growth patterns. We surveyed vegetation of reed bed and exposed bottom zones in ponds used ...

Open AccessTop-down and bottom-up control of plankton structure and dynamics in hypertrophic fishponds
We investigated the effects of strong top-down control by high fish stock on structure and seasonal dynamics of plankton in nine fishponds under conventional fishery management based on auxiliary feeding durin...
