Diel vertical migration of copepods in a Brazilian lake: a mechanism for decreasing risk of Chaoborus predation?
A comparison between two studies on diel vertical migration of two cyclopoid copepod species, in Lake Monte Alegre, undertaken in 1985/86 and 1999, revealed a change in their migratory behavior. In summer, during a period of marked stratification with low dissolved oxygen near the bottom, the organi...
