  1. 16. Fish on drugs : behaviour modifying contaminants in aquatic ecosystems

    Författare :Annelie Lagesson; Jonatan Klaminder; Tomas Brodin; Kathryn Arnold; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Aquatic ecosystems; Behavioural effects; Ecotoxicology; Endocrine disruptors; Pharmaceuticals; Interaction effects; ekotoxikologi; Ecotoxicology;

    Sammanfattning : Contamination of surface waters is a worldwide problem. One group of emerging contaminants that reach aquatic ecosystems via sewage treatment plant effluents and agricultural run-offs is pharmaceuticals. LÄS MER

  3. 18. The influence of trophic polymorphisms on habitat coupling in aquatic food webs

    Författare :Maria H. K. Marklund; Peter Eklöv; R. Svanbäck; Pierre Magnan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

    Sammanfattning : Trophic cascades, together with other indirect interactions are important aspects in shaping the composition and abundance of species in the food web. Theoretically, movement of energy between systems, and coupling between habitats by mobile predators have been suggested as being important for food web stability and evenness. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Uptake Processes of Polychlorinated Biphenyls at the Base of the Pelagic Food Web

    Författare :Anna Sobek; Örjan Gustafsson; Derek Muir; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PCBs; plankton; equilibrium partitioning; uptake; aquatic food web; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi;

    Sammanfattning : Hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs) are persistent, toxic to biota and are known to bioaccumulate in food webs. In this thesis, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were used as model compounds to study the fate and transport of HOCs in the aquatic environment. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Responses of benthic-pelagic coupling to environmental change

    Författare :Per Hedberg; Monika Winder; Martin Kainz; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Benthic-pelagic coupling; Stable isotopes; Fatty acids; Baltic Sea; Plankton; Food webs; Benthos; Marine Ecology; marin ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : Changing abiotic factors, like temperature and light are important drivers of seasonality, affecting aquatic ecosystems and organisms annually in a predictable pattern, structuring species composition, growth, reproduction and trophic interactions. As a consequence of human induced climate change, coastal ecosystems are seeing a disruption in the predictability of annual cycles. LÄS MER
