Diel vertical migrations (DVM) are typical for many cold‐water fish species such as Pacific
salmons (Oncorhynchus spp.) and coregonids (Coregonus spp.) inhabiting deep lakes. A …

It has been more than ten years since the last edition of the bestselling Restoration and
Management of Lakes and Reservoirs. In that time, lake and reservoir management and …

A concise but comprehensive introduction to the biology of standing waters (lakes and
ponds). As with other books in the Biology of Habitats Series, the emphasis in this book is on …

This paper explores the notion that the theoretical basis for contemporary research
concerning the structure and function of marine pelagic ecosystems is self-limiting. While …

The concept of cascading trophic interactions predicts that an increase in piscivore biomass
in lakes will result in decreased planktivorous fish biomass, increased herbivorous …

In a field experiment where the presence or absence of piscivorous pike (Esox lucius) in
ponds was manipulated, the morphology of crucian carp (Carassius carassius) diverged …

Measurements of the efficiency of energy transfer between trophic levels are consistent with
the hypothesis that it is trophic structure that controls the fraction of energy consumed at …

The northern pike (Esox lucius) is a selective and important predator in lake ecosystems.
Prey size in pike is limited by pike gape size, which is a linear function of pike body length …

To study the effects of different predators on the behavior and dynamics of their prey, we
compared the performance of perch (Perca fluviatilis) and the abundance of their prey …

This paper critically reviews the published works on lake restoration in north-western
Europe, with the aim to highlight the causes of failures of lake biomanipulation, and to …
