Impacts of the Invading Golden Mussel Limnoperna fortunei on Zooplankton: a Mesocosm Experiment
(Academia Sinica, 2012-04)
Invasive filter-feeding mussels and clams are well-known for profoundly impacting the invaded systems. Many studies in South America documented interactions of the Asian mussel Limnoperna fortunei with several components ...
Effect of a nitrogen pulse on ecosystem N processing at different temperatures: A mesocosm experiment with 15NO3 − addition
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-07)
Shallow lakes may play an important role for the nitrogen (N) balance in drainage basins by processing, transferring and retaining N inputs. An increase in the frequency of storm-induced short-term N pulses and increased ...
Effects of the herbicide Roundup on freshwater microbial communities: a mesocosm study
(Ecological Society of America, 2007-12-01)
The impact of the widely used herbicide glyphosate has been mainly studied in terrestrial weed control, laboratory bioassays, and field studies focusing on invertebrates, amphibians, and fishes. Despite the importance of ...
Effect of density on population development in the Amazon River prawn Macrobrachium amazonicum
(Inter-research, 2010-01-01)
The Amazon River prawn Macrobrachium amazonicum is widely distributed in lentic and lotic environments of South America, and shows different male morphotypes. In the present study, the effect of crowding on the general ...
Do Subtoxic levels of chlorate influence the desiccation tolerance of Egeria densa?
(2013)
Among the different factors hypothesized to be responsible for the virtual disappearance of Egeria densa, once a dominant aquatic macrophyte in a southern Chile wetland ecosystem, are the negative effects of certain chemical ...

Antagonistic effects of a native apple snail on other snails and macroinvertebrates in Southern Pampas waterbodies: a mesocosm approach
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2019-09)
Macroinvertebrates represent an important component of communities and trophic webs of freshwater ecosystems. Pomacea canaliculata (family Ampullariidae), an invasive apple snail native to the Pampas ecoregion, acts as a ...
