paradox of the (phyto)plankton: basic argument that Hutchinson proposed, and why the paradox doesn't really exist: Why don’t one/few plankton dominate in well mixed lakes?
different species have different needs and are not necessarily directly competing temporal and spatial small scale variability the time between the mixing events is less than they need to compete zooplankton predation and viruses modify population dynamics mutually beneficial interactions between some models have trouble with more than 3 limiting factors

what might you need to consider when trying to mitigate eutrophication in a freshwater ecosystem?
1. identify lake with problem 2. characterization of system including morphology, land use, and nutrient loading 3. identify feasible strategies for nutrient control understanding point and nonpoint sources 4. projecting influence of management actions on nutrient concentrations in lakes, predicting response of chlorophyll to lower nutrient level 5. assess potential effects of decreased chlorophyll with lake clarity 6. cost benefit 7. monitoring how does it differ in lakes vs. rivers and streams? - in lakes, mitigation is mostly focused on biological controls via removal of macrophytes, providing O2 to hypolimnion to keep P in sediments, destratification (same reason), use of copper to control algae and releasing water from the hypolimnion - in streams and rivers, focus is on controlling nutrient levels, especially from sewage effluent.

factors that control grazing on planktonic food webs
plankton are difficult to consume because very small particles are hard to remove from water via infiltration due to low Re and high viscosity. Clearance rate is the volume of water that can be cleared of particles per unit time. viscosity affected by temperature, so feeding is more difficult in cold environments, and feeding on plankton decreases. Particle size, as particles become more dilute, greater volumes of water must be cleared to receive the same amount of food.

a. You are at a scientific conference and go to hear two presentations by two different research teams about the same lake. In the first presentation the lake is described as oligotrophic, but in the second presentation the lake is described as mesotrophic. Assuming both research teams are correct, how could this be? Give specific examples. If you had only heard the first presentation, what would you assume about O2 concentrations in the hypolimnion and why? If you had only heard the second presentation, how would that assumption about O2 concentrations in the hypolimnion have been different?
There is more available oxygen in oligotrophic lakes in the hypolimnion because there are fewer organisms in the lake that die and sink to the bottom where they decompose (eutrophic lakes can be anoxic at the hypolimnion due to algal blooms). it depends on what factors that determine classification you are focusing on. A lake can appear to be mesotrophic due to higher concentrations of phosphorus, however there may be other facts limiting algal growth, so if you look at the algal growth in the lake, the lake would appear to be oligotrophic. The classification of lakes is based on water clarity, phytoplankton, and nutrient concentration. Because of variances in these categories, lakes may not fall into one particular classification. Loch Ness - Lake may not fall into an individual category. ex. phosphorus could be high enough to classify as eutrophic, but, but light attenuation by suspended sediments could keep chlorophyll levels at mesotrophic level Lake Baikal: the intensity of primary production in lake baikal makes it near mesotrophic, however its physico-chemical characteristics categorize it as ultra-oligotrophic.

Describe G.E. Hutchinson's paradox of the plankton. What are three reasons that can explain this apparent paradox? Why does the paradox of the plankton refer to communities in lakes but doesn't cross over to apply to plankton in rivers or in groundwater?
The paradox stems from liebigs law of the minimum and the competitive exclusion principle that when two or more organisms are competing for the same resources, one will out compete the other and will dominate. However, plankton occur in high diversity and generally have similar requirements, and so they are competing for the same nutrients. Nutrients are evenly dispersed due to the regular mixing in lakes, and each species of plankton has a chance of survival. Explanations: 1.Species have different needs, so they may not be directly competing. 2.there is temporal and spatial variability, or micropatches of nutrients from uneven mixing . 3.The time between mixing events is not long enough for species to outcompete- lake isn’t sitting as a well mixed environment for long. 4. Zooplankton predation and viruses modify population dynamics by removing dominant competitors. 5.some have mutually beneficial interactions, where a weaker species may rely upon a stronger, dominant species. 6. Models have trouble when three or more limiting factors are present.

Does Loch Ness provide an appropriate habitat for the existence of a monster? Use ecological evidence to defend your position
Loch Ness is oligotrophic in terms of nutrients, has low light levels deeper in the lake due to a brown color (resulting from humic acids from surrounding peat) and it has a very small littoral zone. These all limit primary production in the lake. Also, the top predator (excluding any pleiosaur), ferrox trout (a piscivorous and cannibalistic fish) was found with empty stomach contents in february and march.

DOC CPOM: found in headwaters - higher abundance of shredders and collectors. fish which consume invertebrates are therefore also abundant. FPOM: in midsized rivers, higher abundance of grazers and collectors, because the greater availability of sunlight which increase algae production (consumed by grazers). Grazer activity can also enhance algae production by reducing light limitations, cycling nutrients. predators are both invertivores and piscivorous. FPOM: in large rivers, filter feeders and collectors are dominant (declining primary production because of growing pelagic zone with river order), and fish which consume invertebrates, plankton and fish may be present.

-Eutrophication due to nutrient input -Ag runoff into Florida Everglades produces huge cattail blooms and eutrophication -Flow alteration- water use for agriculture, consumption, construction of Dams, Levees -three gorges dam on Yangtze River- flooding of upper portion of river: erosion & siltation, loss of wetlands & lakes, reduced temp. & O2 levels downstream which affects the fish and plant life. - Yuba river dams and mining: dams prevent species such as the Chinook salmon from their full range, while mining releases large amounts of sediments, altering river formation -Mesopotamian Marshlands: draining-over 70% gone -diversion of water from Mono Lake for Los Angeles area -Introduction of invasive species - fish stocks at flathead lake, MO-extreme changes in foodweb -introduction of Nile Perch to Lake Victoria- decline of native cichlid population - Climate Change - vernal pools-changes in both drought and rainfall would alter the presence of this type of wetland -Florida everglades-same as above - Channelization - Missouri River - Sacramento - San Joaquin Delta Mesopotamian marshlands
