  1. 1. Waterfowl in temperate eutrophic lakes - Interactions with macroinvertebrates, submerged vegetation and fish

    Författare :Ola Marklund; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydrobiology; marine biology; aquatic ecology; limnology; Marinbiologi; limnologi; akvatisk ekologi; Chara; Asellus; chironomidae; ultraviolet radiation; epiphytes; predation; herbivory; diel vertical migration; fish; Waterfowl; macroinvertebrates; submerged vegetation;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to explore some of the important links between waterfowl and the biota in shallow eutrophic lakes in temperate areas. Waterfowl depend on macroinvertebrates as sources of protein and calcium, which are essential for egg production and growth. Macroinvertebrates in turn depend on submerged vegetation for food and shelter. LÄS MER

  4. 4. The Spider and the Sea : Effects of marine subsidies on the role of spiders in terrestrial food webs

    Författare :Kajsa Mellbrand; Peter Hambäck; Lena Kautsky; David Wise; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; marine subsidies; food webs; stable isotopes; shore ecosystems; predators; spiders; Pardosa; algae; emerging insects; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi; Plant Ecology; växtekologi;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study was to identify if terrestrial arthropod predators on Baltic Sea shores vary in their use of marine versus terrestrial food items, and to construct a bottom-up food web for Baltic Sea shores. The inflow of marine nutrients in the area consists mainly of marine algal detritus and emerging aquatic insects (e.g. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Long Term Studies of Insect Abundances in Temporary Wetlands in Relation to Hydrology, Predation and Bti

    Författare :Thomas Persson Vinnersten; Jan O Lundström; Örjan Östman; William Walton; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; floodwater mosquitoes; mosquito control; predation; aquatic insects;

    Sammanfattning : Long-term insect abundances have been studied to investigate factors structuring the insect communities of the temporary wetlands around the River Dalälven floodplain. In the wet meadows and swamps in the River Dalälven floodplains recurrent floods are the ultimate prerequisite for high production of floodwater mosquitoes. LÄS MER
