Nutrient Element Limitation of Zooplankton Production
- Environmental ScienceThe American Naturalist

Freshwater crustacean zooplankton species show pronounced interspecific variability but approach intraspecific homeostasis in their stoichiometry, and the possibility of direct nutrient element limitation has wide implications for the regulation of herbivore production, competition, and overall cycling of nutrients in epilimnetic waters.

It is indicated that a microbial food web, based on allochthonous organic matter and developing independently from phytoplankton, can act as a link to metazoan zooplankon, especially in oligotrophic humic lakes, as well as confirm studies using stable C isotopes, showing a substantial incorporation of terrestrial carbon into zoopLankton.
