Effect of depth on food‐web interactions in a thermally stratified floodplain lake following inundation

Abstract: We investigated the controlling mechanisms of microbial and metazooplankton food-web components at the surface-and bottom-water layers of a thermally stratified floodplain lake (Lake Sakadaš, Kopački Rit floodplain, Croatia) during its connection with the river. Throughout the study, the lake was stratified continuously. The permutational multivariate analysis of variance provided evidence that only the surface-water layer was impacted on by the flow and flood pulses, whereas the bottom-water layer represented… Show more

“…Yet, in the Lake Kopačko, the entire rotifer community was mainly under the influence of biotic interactions with microcrustaceans, suggesting a complex set of interactions in the planktonic food web at this site. The difference in rotifer representation between these lakes may be a consequence of their geomorphology with a greater mean depth of Lake Sakadaš compared to Lake Kopačko supporting the development of different plankton assemblages in bottom water layers (Palijan and Galir Balkić, 2018). Also, there is a marked difference in vegetation among these lakes that serve as microhabitats for zooplankton development.…”
