This project aims at assessing how the predation and local physical characteristics, provided by flood pulses, will affect the functional structure of the assemblages and planktonic trophic relationships in a flood plain. The hypothesis is that the connectivity between the river and adjacent systems will provide the exchange of biota and changes of abiotic variables of the water, which ca…

The best-known free-living flatworms are the tricladids, popularly known as planarians, which inhabit a wide range of environments, being found on humid land, in the seas and oceans, but with much greater expressiveness in freshwater environments, where they rarely appear in studies of limnic biodiversity. In the Neotropical region, these animals are best studied in southeastern Brazil, w…
The loss of vegetation for the implementation of agropastoral systems and urbanization has generated numerous consequences for biodiversity. Several studies in lotic environments have shown that the removal of riparian vegetation negatively affects river communities. However, this effect is still not well understood for communities in lentic environments, one of which is zooplanktonic. As…
Land use and management for agropastoral activities has been one of the world's main impacts on terrestrial and aquatic biodiversity. In recent years, these activities have intensified, which can have even more damaging effects on water bodies. In lentic environments, the zooplankton community plays an important role, as it represents an important link in aquatic food chains and can resp…
Aquatic environments are inseparable from anthropic activities because those are responsable for considerable changes in its physicochemical parameters. A especially important category of aquatic bodies in Brazil is the artificial lentic body, used in the storage of water and in generation of eletric energy; and, being important ecosystems, it is essencial to understand the magnitude of t…
The main impact caused by aquaculture is the eutrophication of natural water bodies. Thisprocess can be reduced through sustainable techniques capable of inducing an artificialcycling of nutrients, such as adding substrate and the Integrated Multitrophic Aquaculture. Inthese aquatic cultives with the sustainable approaches, the zooplankton communitycontributes to the assimilation of nutri…
Shallow lakes are aquatic ecosystems that span a wide variety of communities. Among these, the zooplankton community is one of the main ones that plays a fundamental role in the structuring of food webs. The regulation of the zooplankton community in the food webs is made of predation by fish and macroinvertebrates. Fish prey on active swimming, preying on all prey they can see. While shr…
