Ecology of zooplankton communities: climate, dormancy, and benthic-pelagic coupling

This thesis describes how influences, such as top down and bottom up forces, shape zooplankton communities in shallow lakes.

A field experiment showed that the total biomass of both phytoplankton and zooplankton in
