ABSTRACT. Eagle Creek Reservoir is a small, eutrophic reservoir located on the northwest side of Indianapolis. Recent assessments by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) have shown that ECR is impaired due to persistent nuisance algal blooms (IDEM 303(d) list; 2002, 2004, and 2006). Research presented here explored the relationship between zooplankton feeding behavior and cyanobacteria morphology, specifically, how resident ECR zooplankton growth was affected b...
