Recent shifts in the crustacean zooplankton community of Lake Huron.(Report)

Introduction
Lake Huron, the second largest of the Laurentian Great Lakes in terms of surface area (Beeton 1984) and the fourth largest in the world (Beeton and Saylor 1995), has experienced a number of major shifts in its biological communities during the last century. The earliest indications of major ecosystem change were apparent in the lake's fish community. Originally supporting a diverse community of cold-water and cool-water fish, by the mid 1960s the native top predator, lake trout (Salvelinus fontinalis), had nearly disappeared, and four species of ...
