Contribution of omnivorous tilapia to eutrophication of a shallow tropical reservoir: evidence from a fish kill (2002, background): “much greater carrying capacity than visually feeding planktivores, reaching a high biomass (>1000 kg ha) and production in eutrophic systems (Fernando, 1994; Lowe-McConnell, 2000).”
Short Term Effects of Tucuruí Dam (Amazonia, Brazil) on the Trophic Organization of Fish Communities (2001, background): “Unexpectedly, plankton did not seem to have a significant role as a resource, although other studies show that they develop rapidly in reservoirs from very scarce populations in the rivers (Fernando 1994), a fact that was also observed in Tucuruí Reservoir (Tundisi et al. 1993).”
Biomanipulation as a restoration tool to combat eutrophication : recent advances and future challenges (2012, background): “Fourthly, in many warm lakes, fish reproduction occurs throughout the year (Fernando, 1994; Paugy and Lévêque, 1999), and an increase in the numberof reproductiveeventswithdecreasing latitude (i.e. increasing temperature) has been reported for some species (Goyenola et al., 2011).”
Body size in freshwater planktonic crustaceans: an overview of extrinsic determinants and modifying influences of biotic interactions (2011, background): “The absence or scarcity of large-bodied cladocerans (particularly Daphnia) in tropical and subtropical lakes (e.g. Fernando et al. 1987; Dumont, 1994; Fernando, 1994) has obvious implications in evaluating thermal influences on body size.”
Impacts of climate warming on lake fish community structure and potential effects on ecosystem function (2010, background): “Here, the typical cladoceran community comprises small-bodied genera (Fernando, 1994; Meerhoff et al., 2007b; Kruk et al., 2009), and experimental studies have shown that high fish predation underlies the observed patterns in the structure of subtropical zooplankton communities (Havens, 2002;…”
Evaluation of functional trait diversity for marine zooplankton communities in the Northeast subarctic Pacific Ocean (2015, background): “…fixed but rather plastic and there is evidence that species can adjust their DVM behaviour according to other factors such as temperature (Cooke et al., 2008), oxygen levels (oxycline) (Keister and Tuttle, 2013), UV radiation (Willamson et al., 2011) and avoidance of toxic algae (Fernando, 1994).”
