Zooplankton Responses to Heatwaves and Plankton Invasions in Temperate Shallow Lakes
Temperate freshwater shallow lakes are facing ecosystem level changes from climate change and biological invasions. Under IPCC’s future extreme warming scenarios, alien species that are introduced from lower latitudes could have a competitive advantage over the native species. This could instigate an irreversible impact on the biodiversity and ecosystem of these lakes. Therefore, scientific predic
