“…The revealed features of the spatial distribution of zoobenthos and zooplankton are necessary to verify the correspondence of ecosystems of real reservoirs and their models mesocosms. Thus, the vertical distribution of M. asiaticus in Lake Doroninskoe corresponded to the vertical distribution of rotifers in the water column of the mesocosm of Lake Doroninskoe [8,9]. In both cases, zooplankton organisms inhabit the upper layers of the water column above the chemocline.…”

Meromictic soda lakes are considered models of reservoirs of the Early Proterozoic. Lake Doroninskoe belongs to a rare type of moderately salty alkaline soda lake with a carbonate type of salinity and pronounced meromixia. Studies and publications on the zoobenthos of the lake are rare. In 2005–2007, studies of zoobenthos and zooplankton of the lake were carried out. Meromixia of the water column caused the stable presence of zooplankton only in a layer up to 4 m. The distribution of the taxonomic abundance, quantitative development and structure of zoobenthos in the lake corresponds to the stratification of the water column into mixolimnion, chemocline and monimolimnion. Bottom biotopes and water column layers deeper than 4 m were uninhabited, which is probably due to the lack of oxygen and high hydrogen sulphide content in the bottom water layers due to meromixia. A similar distribution of zooplankton in Lake Doroninskoe and its mesocosm model was revealed.

“…Belomesyatseva 2002; Gaino et al 2004;Matafonov et al 2005;Gómez 2007;Porras-Alfaro et al 2008), the concept of consortium has a slightly more specific contemporary usage in soil microbiology, where it marks the groups of functionally related species. Popa (2004: 210) defines it this way: "consortium: in microbiology, an association of microorganisms from different species living in metabolic interdependence".…”

“…according to Matafonov et al (2005: 490), a consortium can be seen as an "elementary biocenosis that includes interacting populations of the edificator and consort species". 14 Matafonov et al (2005) find it possible to speak about the key consortia as the ones that may be of particular importance in terms of the stability of a biocoenosis.…”

Ecosystems are Made of Semiosic Bonds: Consortia, Umwelten, Biophony and Ecological Codes

The paper focuses on the semiotic principles of the organisation of ecosystems, attempting to find concepts that point to relations and not to elements.(1) Consortium (the term introduced by Johannes Reinke around 1873) can be defined as a group of organisms connected via (sign) relations, or groups of interspecific semiosic links in biocoenosis. The consortial relations include trophic and topic relations, both implying a recognition (identification) of the object by an organism involved (these, i.e., are sign relations). These relations are ecologically inheritable.(2) Umwelt (the term introduced by Jakob von Uexküll around 1909) can be defined as a set of relations an organism has in an ecosystem (as in a semiosphere). The formation of an umwelt is dependent on the modelling system of the organism. (3) Biophony (the term introduced by Bernie Krause around 2000) denotes the coordination of inter-and intra-species relations in a soundscape of a biological community. This can be seen as a special case of Komposition as defined by Jakob and Thure von Uexküll. (4) Ecological code (as introduced, e.g. by Alexander Levich around 1977) can be defined as the set of (sign) relations (regular irreducible correspondences) characteristic to an entire ecosystem. We also mention the concepts of ecomones and coactones (introduced by Marcel Florkin in 1965) as the substances which are responsible for mediation of ecological inter-individual relations. All the relations as sign-relations evidently imply both a static or structuralist description (in terms of codes), and a processual description (in terms of semiosis carried on by interpretation). We conclude that all the above mentioned concepts can be viewed as conceptually connected and are suitable for semiotic description of biological communities.
