    Abstract : There is a widespread distribution of possibly toxic heavy metals, such as zinc, in aquatic ecosystems. Simultaneously aquatic food webs are changing due to declining predatory fish stocks. READ MORE

  2. 2. Importance of fish community structure, nutrients and browning for shallow lake ecosystem dynamics : A modelling perspective

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Ylva Karlberg; [2019]
    Keywords : biological modelling; bowning; food webs; trophic interactions; top-down and bottom-up control; nutrients; light; shallow lake; biologisk modellering; brunifiering; födovävar; trofiska interaktioner; näring; ljus; grund sjö;

    Abstract : In a changing climate, it is increasingly important to be able to model environmental effects on food webs, and to do that, one must have appropriate dynamic models. I present a shallow lake ecosystem model where producers, grazers, carnivores, piscivores, and detritivores are coupled through resource (light, nutrients and detritus) fluxes between the benthic and pelagic habitats and through carnivore life history events (ontogenetic habitat and diet shifts).
