Plankton metacommunities in floodplain wetlands under contrasting hydrological conditions

Abstract: Species diversity is affected by processes operating at multiple spatial scales, although the most relevant scales that contribute to compositional variation and the temporal shifts of the involved mechanisms remain poorly explored. We studied spatial patterns of phytoplankton, rotifers and microcrustacean diversity across scales in a river floodplain system of the Danube in Austria under contrasting hydrological conditions (post‐flood versus low water level).The species turnover between water sections (β2) an… Show more

“…It is not easy to answer how, directly, connectivity (dispersal) matters for the persistence and performance of metacommunities [10]. Unfortunately, it is difficult to distinguish between organisms belonging to the adapted vs. dispersed group in zooplankton of floodplain lakes.…”

“…According to the flood-pulse concept [9] the functioning of floodplain lakes depends on periodic river flooding. The resulting connection between the river and the lake allows the exchange of water with nutrients and organisms between all elements of the river system [1,2,10,11]. Hydrological connectivity is observed on four levels of fluvial systems: longitudinal, lateral, vertical and temporal [2].…”

“…In line with plankton biodiversity indicators (diversity, evenness and quantity of taxa) in response to environmental typology conditions in peatland waters, surface temperature components were not affected by inundation typology patterns, while other water quality such as pH and dissolved oxygen as a limiting factor (Schagerl et al 2009;Chaparro et al 2018;Sofarini et al 2019;Siriwardana et al 2019) gave a significant response to inundation typology (Figure 4). Temperature values between 28.1 °C to 30.6 °C did not have an impact on the type of inundation both permanent and temporary.…”

“…The selected PCNMs (fine and broad scale, see Appendix for details) suggest that the distance among the environments may influence mixotrophic flagellate RFG structure in the environments. The spatial signal has already been strongly related to the dispersal capacity of organisms and to the spatial scale considered (Padial et al ; Santos et al ; Moresco et al ; Chaparro et al ). The fact that the spatial component contributes more to community variation suggests that the distance between lakes was important for the structuring of the flagellate mixotrophic metacommunity (suggesting that it is in accordance with the mass‐effects model) and that this influence may change over time (Wojciechowski et al ).…”
