Four Daphnia invasion events were carried out at different moments of Keratella population growth curve. We found that D. magna always displaced to + K. cochlearis when it was inoculated during the first period of growth curve (minimum rate was 1 individual of D. magna invading 1000 individuals of K. cochlearis). The ratio of competitors was decisive on the competition outcomes, because when Keratella could develop a large population before the onset of competition, this fact could tip the balance in favour of its persistence. Thus, when D. magna was inoculated during K. cochlearis stationary period (minimum rate in the invasion moment was 1 D: 6000 K in all these treatments) different alternative competitive results were observed: D. magna was excluded or K. cochlearis was excluded or they co-existed, reaching a ratio of 1 D: 300 K. Keratella exhibited two distinct models of growth dynamics and, depending on these dynamics, the competition result varied. We did not find statistically significant differences between population features (growth rate, fecundity, etc.) when comparing them among the different trajectories which promoted different competition outcomes. Although the implied competition mechanisms were known, their effect on competitors, and therefore on the competition outcomes, depended on population history (self-dynamics).","PeriodicalId":8118,"journal":{"name":"Archiv Fur Hydrobiologie","volume":"3 1","pages":"289-305"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88950537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ponds were generally small andshallow and at low elevation, with half < 20m a.s.l. and within 5km of the coast. Allof the ponds were alkaline (pH range 7.2–8.1), and shared similar major ion chemis-tries dominated by Ca and Na for cations, and Cl for anions, although there were somedifferences observed among habitats. Nutrients were relatively high compared to otherArctic islands, particularly for total nitrogen, which suggested that ponds on South-ampton Island are P-limited. One pond was located in an eider colony, and waterchemistry underwent a dramatic increase in nutrients, certain ions, and metals over anine week sampling period, presumably the result of ornithogenic inputs from faeces,as well as resuspension of sediments as eiders moved in the pond. Collectively thewater chemistry of ponds on Southampton Island are somewhat similar to those onVictoria and Banks islands, and appear to represent a transition between conditionsfound in sites on the Arctic mainland, and the spartan characteristics of sites on thehigh arctic islands.

Despite an order of magnitude difference in biomass of bacteria, heterotrophic nanoflagellates (HNF) and ciliates between the two experiments, the trophic interactions observed were similar. Bacteria were consumed by HNF and oligotrich ciliates, oligotrich ciliates fed on HNF as well as bacteria and cyclopoid copepod nauplii preyed on the oligotrich ciliates. While cyclopoid copepods had no effect on any component of the microbial food web, Daphnia fed on bacteria and HNF. No or a weak and slow trophic cascade occurred from oligotrich ciliates to HNF and bacteria. The lack of a pronounced trophic cascade was ascribed to the importance of the omnivorous oligotrich ciliates in the microbial food web. In both experiments, removal of trophic levels by size fractionation resulted in changes in the identity of the dominant bacterivores, but this had little effect on total bacterial grazing losses. Bacterial community composition (monitored in the second experiment using DGGE analysis), on the contrary, was more strongly influenced by changes in the identity of the dominant bacterivores, suggesting the presence of a 'cryptic trophic cascade'.","PeriodicalId":8118,"journal":{"name":"Archiv Fur Hydrobiologie","volume":"12 12 1","pages":"307-324"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82998490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The temperature and concentration of major ions in interstitial water differed very little from those of river water. DO concentrations in interstitial waters were 5.7 ± 2.2 mg O 2 /l and 3.5 ± 1.8 mg O 2 /l at the side and dried-up channels, respectively. Concentrations of ammonium and nitrite of both interstitial waters at the side (0.50 ± 0.17μM and 0.13 ± 0.09μM, NH 4 + and NO;\"\") and dried-up channels (0.90 ± 2.14μM and 0.27 ± 0.37μM) were lower than those of river water (1.7 ± 0.8 μM and 0.73 ± 0.22 μM), whereas nitrate (85 ± 25 μM at the side channel and 79 ± 36 μM at the dried-up channel) did not differ on average from those of river water (70 ± 12 μM), though they were often very low (< 10 % of those of river water) at shallow depths of the vegetated areas in the dried-up channel. Soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) concentrations in interstitial waters at the dried-up channel (0.84 ± 0.53 μM) were lower than those at the side channel (1.9 ± 0.5 μM) and those of river water (1.5 ± 0.5 μM), and decreased downstream. These results suggest that this aerobic hyporheic zone can serve as a sink for ammonium, nitrite and SRP and to a lesser extent of nitrate. Concentrations of these nutrients in pool water varied greatly but did not differ on average from those of river water. Dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) and SRP concentrations were negatively related to the algal biomass. Pool waters also had lower DIN concentrations at the vegetated areas and higher SPR concentrations at the bar head. These results suggest that nutrient concentrations in pool waters are controlled in a complex manner by algal assimilation and surface-subsurface water exchange. Therefore some pools may serve as a sink and others as a source for nutrients.","PeriodicalId":8118,"journal":{"name":"Archiv Fur Hydrobiologie","volume":"29 1","pages":"145-167"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84233915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rates of resuspension, relative to the seston concentration in the water column, ranged from 0 to 0.05 m -1 and were significantly correlated to the water exchange rate between main channel and transient storage zone. Resuspension rates were higher than deposition rates in most stream reaches, governing the load of suspended small organic particles.

Most populations (34) were collected from ricefields in the Po Plain (Northern Italy). Using three polymorphic allozyme markers (MPI, PGM and GPI) we found 125 different multilocus genotypes (clones) in a total of 3235 studied females. One clone was present almost everywhere (66 % localities) and in about a third (35 %) of all analysed females. Only a few clones (9 or 7 %) were found in more than ten localities while the majority (77 or 62 %) were found in only one population (private clones). Almost half (48 %) of all private clones were from the eight ricefields with the highest clonal richness while 16 % were from isolated temporary pools sampled for comparison. Clonal diversity seems to be the result of the presence of at least two different clonal lineages. One of the two, made up of the largest number of clones, probably had an autochthonous origin, a condition that probably favoured adaptation to local conditions. The other lineage was possibly introduced with imported rice seeds and its descendants carry adaptations to warm ricefield conditions. The weak relationship between genetic and geographic distance and the lack of spatial patterns in genetic variability might be due to the species' long-distance dispersal ability and to the persistence of founder effects sustained by large resting egg banks, conditions that blur isolation by distance. The lack of phylogeography in genetic variation may also be due to the spatially stochastic process of initiation and cessation of local ricefield cultivation known to have happened since the 15 th Century in this area of Northern Italy.","PeriodicalId":8118,"journal":{"name":"Archiv Fur Hydrobiologie","volume":"1 1","pages":"225-240"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82818026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some migration patterns were opposite to our expectations in clones exhibiting an upward migration in response to fish kairomone. A literature comparison indicated that this is not an unusual finding. In general, more clones responded to Chaoborus than to fish kairomone, stressing the importance of Chaoborus as a predator for Daphnia in nature. Dilution of Chaoborus kairomone led to a reduced upward migration by most Daphnia pulex clones tested and adult Daphnia exhibited a strongly reduced response to Chaoborus in comparison to juvenile Daphnia. This indicates that Daphnia may be able to respond to the actual predation threat.","PeriodicalId":8118,"journal":{"name":"Archiv Fur Hydrobiologie","volume":"2017 1","pages":"241-260"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79125580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Every two months, invertebrates were sampled within the 0 - 20 cm depth range used by foraging waders. We identified 40 taxa, including 30 aquatic and eight terrestrial metazoan invertebrates. Aquatic inverte- brate taxa richness and diversity decreased significantly with increasing pond salinity, whereas total biomass showed a non-significant increase. Overall, Artemia partheno- genetica constituted 67.6 % of invertebrates by number, and 95.5 % of the biomass. The copepod Cletocamptus retrogressus represented 31.1 % of invertebrates by num- ber, and 0.6 % of the biomass. Invertebrate biomass and dominance of A. parthenogen- etica was highest in September and lowest in November. There was significant spatial and temporal variation in abundance for all aquatic taxa, and for a given pond and month, the depth, distance to shoreline and fetch (wind effects) all had important par- tial effects on invertebrate distribution.

NO 3 derived from animal waste has a δ 15 N signature of +10 +20‰, which is uniquely high compared to δ 15 NO 3 from other sources. The purpose of this research was to describe the distribution of δ 15 NO 3 , NO 3 and Cl in wells, springs, seeps and lakes in the vicinity of a concentrated animal feeding operation (CAFO), which was the suspected source of contamination. Nitrate concentrations and δ 15 NO 3 were higher in wells just below the waste spray area of the CAFO than above it. Chloride ion concentrations in wells confirmed a contaminated area below the waste spray area. Surface water samples had a wide range of NO 3 concentrations and were uncontaminated, except for samples from one seep and one spring. However, the mean δ 15 NO 3 in samples from springs were +3.9 to +5.0‰, values that are in a range reported for soil NO 3 .
