Day 85: Hydrobiologist Vessela Evtimova: Copepods Boeckella poppei Reign Over Livingston Island's Ponds
22.03.2023
Copepods of the Boeckella poppei genus reign over small ponds and puddles on Livingston Island, said Chief Assistant Professor Vessela Evtimova, hydrobiologist at the Institute of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Research at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (BAS) and participant in the 31st Bulgarian Antarctic expedition. The two-year international project, which Evtimova leads, investigates the functioning and adaptations of freshwater ecosystems and the organisms that occur in them under extreme polar conditions. "Looking down, we see these red dots everywhere. They've evolved and developed in such a way that this kind of adaptation helps them dominate - they're the kings in these little puddles, these little ponds," noted Assist. Dr Evtimova, specifying that a dominant species is the one that occurs most often in a given habitat.
