Benthic food web dynamics and carbon flow were examined in the littoral zone of Lake
Coleridge, a large deep oligotrophic lake, using radioactive and stable isotope techniques in …

A carbon budget for the pelagic euphotic zone of a mesohumic, boreal lake was constructed,
on the basis of enclosure experiments, in which effects of pulses of humic matter and …

Major pelagic carbon pathways, including primary production, release of extracellular
products (EOC), bacterial production and zooplankton grazing were measured in …

Benthic animals readily consume benthic algae, phytoplankton and terrestrial organic matter
and are themselves a major component of fish diets. However, the effect of variation in …

Studies were conducted over a 13 month period at four pelagic sites in eutrophic Lake
Okeechobee, Florida (USA), in order to quantify carbon (C) uptake rates by size-fractionated …

Lake Okaro, a nutrient‐rich lake on the central volcanic plateau of the North Island, New
Zealand, supported a maximum littoral population of the chironomid Polypedilum pavidus …

Food webs of tropical, temperate, and arctic lakes can be characterized by the carbon and
nitrogen stable isotope ratios of their constituent organisms. After assigning trophic levels …

The carbon isotopic signature (δ13C) of dissolved inorganic carbon and food web
components was examined in two high mountain lakes. Río Seco Lake is partially …

A budget for algal carbon was constructed to quantify the magnitude and major pathways of
pelagic‐benthic coupling at a site in southeastern Lake Michigan. The flux of algal C to the …

The diet of koaro (Galaxias brevipinnis Gunther) from ll streams in South Westland was
investigated. The most abundant prey in guts of summer-feeding fish were larvae of …
