Mesocosm Experiments as a Tool for Ecological Climate-Change Research (2013, background): “…Stewart et al. consequences of climate change, such as increases in run-off (Graham and Vinebrooke, 2009), salinisation (Herbst and Blinn, 1998; Jeppesen et al., 2007), and browning by increasing concentrations of humic substances in the water column (Mormul et al., 2012; Nicolle et al., 2012).”
Salinisation of rivers: an urgent ecological issue. (2013, background): “In brackish-water lagoons it was found that salinity had a cascading effect that induced an hysterical response of the ecosystem, which shifted from a clear water state (macrophyte dominance) to a turbid water state (phytoplankton dominance) (Jeppesen et al., 2007).”
Species richness of crustacean zooplankton and trophic structure of brackish lagoons in contrasting climate zones: north temperate Denmark and Mediterranean Catalonia (Spain) (2009, methodology): “In Danish lagoons, TP and TN were determined following Koroleff (1970) and Solórzano and Sharp (1980), respectively, and in Catalan lagoons according to, respectively, Grasshoff et al.”
Exploring the effects of salinization on trophic diversity in freshwater ecosystems: a quantitative review (2018, background): “…such as removal of organic matter (Scrapers; Simpson et al., 1998), detritus (Gatherers; Simpson et al., 1998) and fine particles (Filterers; Jeppesen et al., 2007), and suggests that in the absence of replacement by functionally equivalent taxa, an increase in salinity could alter…”
Impacts of climate warming on lake fish community structure and potential effects on ecosystem function (2010, background): “This may markedly reduce grazing on phytoplankton and thus enhance eutrophication symptoms (Jeppesen et al., 2007b).”
