    Notes: Patterns of diel food selection in pelagic Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus (L.) and brown trout, Salmo trutta L. were investigated in Lake Atnsjo, SE Norway, by gillnet sampling during July-September 1985. Arctic charr feed almost exclusively on zooplankton both day and night, while brown trout had a diurnal shift in diet. For this species zooplankton made up a considerable part of the diet in the daytime, while at night the diet consisted mainly of surface insect and chironomid pupae. Both species had a selective feeding mode on zooplankton during the day and night. Arctic charr had a higher gill raker number and a denser gill raker spacing compared with brown trout. Still, the differences in prey size between the two species were small. We argue that the observed differences in food selection between Arctic charr and brown trout can be explained by differing abilities to detect food items under low light conditions.

    Notes: Surveyed populations of salmonid species from 13 different localities in southern Norway, revealed large differences in gill-raker number, both within and between species. The findings indicate that phenotypic plasticity (expressed as variation in gill-raker number) is more common among the plankti-vores than the benthi-and piscivorous species, due to the former's dependence on gill-rakers when feeding. The number and morphology of gill-rakers did not always reflect the presence of other fish species (competitors), indicating that other factors, such as different immigration history of the various species, influence gill-raker number.Brown trout were the more stable of the species, with mean gill-raker number of either 15 or 16, and the total range of means being only 6% of the grand mean. Whitefish and Arctic char were the other extremes, with population means between 21–35 (representing 47% of grand mean) and 21–27 (25 %), respectively.〈section xml:id="abs1-2"〉〈title type="main"〉ZusammenfassungFutterwabl und Konkurrenz bei Lachsfischen anband Zahl und Form der KiemenstäbchenEine Untersuchung von verschiedenen Lachsfischarten aus 13 verschiedenen Populationen in Süd-Norwegen zeigt, daß Anzahl und Form der Kiemenstäbchen innerhalb einer Art und zwischen den Arten stark variieren.Die Ergebnisse deuten an, daß die phänotypische Varianz (ausgedrückt als Variation in der Anzahl der Kiemenstäbchen) bei den planktonfressenden Arten größer ist als bei den benthosoder fischfressenden. Die Kiemenstäbchendichte und-morphologie spiegelt nicht immer das Vorhandensein anderer Fischarten (Konkurrenten) wider, was darauf hindeutet, daß andere Faktoren, wie z. B. unterschiedliche Einwanderungen, die Anzahl der Stäbchen beeinflussen könnten.Die Forelle war die stabilste Art, mit 15–16 Kiemenstäbchen und einer Gesamtvarianz von 6%. Saibling und Renke variierten am meisten und zwar mit einem Durchschnitt von 21–27 (25 % Varianz) und 21–35 (47% Varianz).〈section xml:id="abs1-3"〉〈title type="main"〉RésuméSelection de la nourriture et concurrence chez les salmonidés, reflétés par le nombre et la forme des lames branchialesDes études de differentes espèces de poissons saumonés provenant de treize populations differentes du sud de la Norvége, ont montré de grandes differences dans le nombre et la forme des lames branchiales tant à l'interieur qu'entre les espèces.Les résuhats indiquaient que des variances phenotypiques (exprimées comme variation du nombre de lames branchiales), sont plus courants chez des espèces planctivores que chez des benthivores ou piscivores. La densité et la morphologie des lames branchiales ne reflétaient pas toujours la présence d'autres espèces (des competiteurs). Cela indique que des facteurs different comme par example l'histoire d'immigration ont une influence sur le nombre de lames branchiales.La truite etait l'espèce la plus stable, avec 15–16 lames branchiales en moyenne, et une variance totale de 6%. L'ombre chevalier et le lavaret étaient les plus variables avec une moyenne de population de 21–27 (25 % variance) et 21–35 (47 % variance) respectivement.

    Description: In most lakes, zooplankton production is constrained by food quantity, but frequently high C:P poses an additional constraint on zooplankton production by reducing the carbon transfer efficiency from phytoplankton to zooplankton. This review addresses how the flux of matter and energy in pelagic food webs is regulated by food quantity in terms of C and its stoichiometric quality in terms of C:P. Increased levels of light, CO2 and phosphorus could each increase seston mass and, hence, food quantity for zooplankton, but while light and CO2 each cause increased C:P (i.e. reduced food quality for herbivores), increased P may increase seston mass and its stoichiometric quality by reducing C:P. Development of food quality and food quantity in response to C- or P-enrichments will differ between 'batch-type' lakes (dominated by one major, seasonal input of water and nutrients) and 'continuous-culture' types of lakes with a more steady flow-rate of water and nutrients. The reciprocal role of food quantity and stoichiometric quality will depend strongly on facilitation via grazing and recycling by the grazers, and this effect will be most important in systems with low renewal rates. At high food abundance but low quality, there will be a 'quality starvation' in zooplankton. From a management point of view, stoichiometric theory offers a general tool-kit for understanding the integrated role of C and P in food webs and how food quantity and stoichiometric quality (i.e. C:P) regulate energy flow and trophic efficiency from base to top in food webs.From a management point of view, stoichiometric theory offers a general tool-kit for understanding the integrated role of C and P in food webs and how food quantity and stoichiometric quality (i.e. C:P) regulate energy flow and trophic efficiency from base to top in food webs.

    Description: While there is a general sense that lakes can act as sentinels of climate change, their efficacy has not been thoroughly analyzed. We identified the key response variables within a lake that act as indicators of the effects of climate change on both the lake and the catchment. These variables reflect a wide range of physical, chemical, and biological responses to climate. However, the efficacy of the different indicators is affected by regional response to climate change, characteristics of the catchment, and lake mixing regimes. Thus, particular indicators or combinations of indicators are more effective for different lake types and geographic regions. The extraction of climate signals can be further complicated by the influence of other environmental changes, such as eutrophication or acidification, and the equivalent reverse phenomena, in addition to other land-use influences. In many cases, however, confounding factors can be addressed through analytical tools such as detrending or filtering. Lakes are effective sentinels for climate change because they are sensitive to climate, respond rapidly to change, and integrate information about changes in the catchment.

    Description: 1. Herbivorous zooplankton maintain a rather constant elemental composition in their body mass as compared with the variability commonly encountered in their food. Furthermore, their high phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) content means that they often face an excess of carbon (C) in their diet. Regulation of this surplus of energy may occur via modulation of assimilation efficiency, or postassimilation by increased respiration (CO2) and/or excretion dissolved organic carbon, DOC. Whereas several studies have examined the effect of elemental imbalance in the genus Daphnia, few have examined other zooplankton taxa. 2. We investigated whether the rotifer Brachionus calyciflorus uses increased respiration as a means of stoichiometrically regulating excess dietary C. Growth rate and respiration were measured under different food qualities (C : N and C : P ratios). 3. Both C : N and C : P ratios in food had strong effects on growth rate, demonstrating strong nutrient limitation of rotifer growth when nutrient elements were depleted in the diet and indicating the need for stoichiometric regulation of excess ingested C. 4. Respiration measurements, supported by a stoichiometric model, indicated that excess C was not released as CO2 in B. calyciflorus and that nutrient balance must therefore be maintained by other means such as excretion of DOC or egestion in faecal material.
