  1. 1. Fingerprints of planktivory : paleolimnological evidence of past fish community structure and dynamics

    Författare :Emma Åhlén; Marko Reinikainen; Tom Korsman; Pär Byström; Timo Kairesalo; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; planktivory; foraging efficiency; cladoceran remains; Bosmina; planktivore community capacity; PCC; Ceriodaphnia; reserrection; zooekologi; Animal Ecology;

    Sammanfattning : Planktivorous fish affect the species composition, size and morphology of their zooplankton prey by size selective predation. Remains of cladocerans are deposited in the lake sediments and this microfossil community hence reflects the historical changes in the planktivore fish community. LÄS MER

  2. 2. When the Rubber Meets the Road -Ecotoxicological Hazard and Risk Assessment of Tire Wear Particles

    Författare :Anna Wik; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tire wear; tire particles; rubber; leaching tests; ecotoxicity tests; Daphnia magna; Ceriodaphnia dubia; Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata; Danio rerio; toxicity identification evaluation; detention ponds; hazard assessment; risk assessment;

    Sammanfattning : Large amounts of rubber particles are dispersed into the environment due to tire wear. The rubber contains a wide range of chemicals, including several of environmental concern. The purpose of this th.. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Daphnids adaptive strategies to UV radiation

    Författare :Carla Eloisa Fernández; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
    Nyckelord :Cladocera; Zooplankton; Andean lakes; Daphnia; Ultraviolet radiation; Migration strategy; Photo-protection;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the adaptive strategies of daphnids that allows them to maintain stable populations while deal with UV radiation, highlighting the differences in the responses that populations with different evolutionary histories may have.Although exposition to lethal doses in nature is unlikely, sub-lethal UV-B radiation doses may have strong impacts on zooplankton.
