Zooplankton Community Structure is More Variable Over Short Timescales than Over Space, with Implications for Water Quality Management
Zooplankton are integral components of freshwater lake and reservoir food webs. Because of their role as a food source for fish and their ability to rapidly graze down algal populations, zooplankton play a critical role in maintaining water quality. To avoid fish predation during the day, zooplankton may migrate both vertically or horizontally (Diel Vertical […]
