Featuring insights from leading experts, it covers the phenomenology of diapause and its profound influence on aquatic communities. Discover practical applications in modern aquaculture, including the cultivation of live food like rotifers and Artemia. The book also examines how diapause facilitates the spread of invasive species and its potential role in future space colonization by enabling the transport of dormant stages.
