The zooplankton assemblages in Chilean Patagonian lakes are characterised mainly by their low biodiversity and high predominance of calanoids copepods, a pattern that has been studied for large and deep lakes between 38-51 degrees S, and shallow ponds at 51 degrees S. The aim of the present study...

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the seasonal relationship of macrobenthos richness and abundance with sediment characteristics (i.e. texture and organic material) for the coastal Budi Lagoon in southern Chile. Physicochemical measurements and macrobenthos samples were taken ov...

The aim of this study was to determine the feeding of Micropogonias furnieri (n= 256 of commercial size over 25 cm) during austral summer and winter 2004. During the summer period anchoveta Engraulis ringens was the main prey item in terms of percentage of frequency (%F), percentage of weight (%P...
The Chilean inland water zooplankton is characterized by a high calanoid copepod dominance and low species number that is due to the oligotrophic status. The present study is a first descriptions of crustacean zooplankton and littoral communities in ephemeral pools in Puaucho using co-occurrence ...
The concentrations of Cd, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, Fe and Zn were determined in superficial sediments extracted from nine zones of Budi Lagoon, located in the Araucania Region (Chile). The concentrations of these metals were determined by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy and the method was validated u...

Riparian vegetation comprises the ecotonal zone in the transition between a water body and the adjacent terrestrial environment and it plays an elemental role in the functioning of aquatic ecosystems. Coverage, structure, and composition of vegetation have a fundamental influence in controlling t...
