%X A study was carried out on
the impacts of temperature and light/dark regime on the Egg Development Time
(EDT) of the cyclopoid<span style=\"font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana;\">a</span><span style=\"font-size:10.0pt;font-family:;\" \"=\"\"><span style=\"font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana;\"> copepod, </span><i><span style=\"font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana;\">Mesocyclops
ogunnus</span></i><span style=\"font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana;\"> in Lake Kinneret. It was found that EDT was 148, 33 and 20 hours
under 15<span style=\"white-space:nowrap;\">กใ</span>C, 22<span style=\"white-space:nowrap;\">กใ</span>C, and 27<span style=\"white-space:nowrap;\">กใ</span>C respectively. EDT was different between the two
regimes of 12/12 hrs light/dark and 24 hrs light. Egg hatching and survival
were higher under 24 hrs light regime. The results of temperature and light
regime impacts on EDT indicate ecological implication on cyclopoid</span></span><span style=\"font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana;\">a</span><span style=\"font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana;\"> copepod population
dynamics in lakes. The implication of the results to the global warming trend
is also suggested.</span>
