Daphnia

In 1999 Hairston and colleagues published a paper in Nature that described how 40-year-old resurrected eggs could answer whether tiny crustaceans called Daphnia in central Europe's Lake Constance had evolved to survive rising levels of toxic cyanobacteria, known as blue-green algae.

Human impacts on the biodiversity of the Arctic 2009

Mesocosm studies by Beisner et al. [34], which investigated the influence of increasing temperature and food chain length on plankton predator – prey dynamics, showed that the predator – prey system is destabilized at higher temperatures (i.e., the macrozooplankton herbivore Daphnia pulex always became extinct), irrespective of the complexity of the food web (i.e., whether a two - or three-level food web was involved).
