Toward a more comprehensive theory of zooplankton diel vertical migration: Integrating ultraviolet radiation and water transparency into the biotic paradigm
The current prevailing theory of diel vertical migration (DVM) of zooplankton is focused
largely on two biotic drivers: food and predation. Yet recent evidence suggests that abiotic …

Impacts of multiple stressors on biodiversity and ecosystem functioning: The role of species co‐tolerance
Ecosystem resistance to a single stressor relies on tolerant species that can compensate for
sensitive competitors and maintain ecosystem processes, such as primary production. We …

Knowing the enemy: Inducible defences in freshwater zooplankton
Phenotypic plasticity in defensive traits is an appropriate mechanism to cope with the
variable hazard of a frequently changing predator spectrum. In the animal kingdom these so …
