Abstract
    Reservoirs built on rivers draining agricultural watersheds are often turbid with suspended sediments. Filter-feeding zooplankton, e.g., members of the genus Daphnia, seem to be as abundant in such reservoirs as in natural lakes. Using controlled laboratory conditions, the authors have investigated the potential role of suspended sediments in the nutrition of Daphnia from a turbid reservoir. In three sets of experimental procedures they measured: (1) the physical effect of sediments on the ingestion and incorporation rates of algae by daphnids, (2) the ingestion rates of two sizes of clay mineral sediment particles by daphnids, and (3) the growth and survival of daphnids fed yeast and sediments with and without organic matter adsorbed onto the particle surfaces.
