Profundal benthic invertebrates in an oligotrophic tropical lake: different strategies for coping with anoxia
<p>The deep benthic communities of tropical lakes are poorly understood with respect to their composition, abundance, biomass and regulatory factors. Whereas the hypolimnia of temperate oligotrophic lakes remain oxygenated, the higher temperatures in tropical lakes frequently lead to the rapid...
