Neotropical coastal lagoons (NCL) are human-dominated ecosystems. Their distribution
along densely populated coastal areas of develo** countries makes these systems …

Zooplankton and ichthyoplankton assemblages were studied from January 2003 to June
2004 in a temperate shallow estuary (Mondego estuary, Portugal). Monthly sampling was …

The zooplankton community structure and biomass in the upper, middle and lower reaches

This paper examines spatial and temporal variations of mesozooplankton abundance,

Coastal lagoons are important ecosystems that contribute to the production of seafood
worldwide. The impact of climate change on these vulnerable ecosystems can be evaluated …

The importance of shallow littoral habitat is a long standing paradigm of estuarine ecology,
particularly in facilitating the nursery role they play for many fish. Diel cycles have been …

The effects of a disturbance by sandbar opening on the zooplankton community were
evaluated through a long-term study in an eutrophic and oligohaline system, Imboassica …

It is important to know the ultimate role of small copepods in structuring mesozooplankton
community pattern and diversity on an estuary-coastal gradient. Here multivariate analyses …
