Development of phytoplankton of Lake Vesijärvi during recovery from eutrophication
Wastewaters discharged to Lake Vesijärvi ruined its recreational value and demanded mitigation measures. In the mid-1970s, the diversion of...

Lake Ecosystems
Looking across the rippling surface of a lake, it is not obvious what kinds of biotic interactions and life forms are found in this ecosystem. We see...

Comparing long-term changes in cladoceran and diatom assemblages from a lake impacted by road salt seepage to a nearby reference lake near Toronto (Ontario, Canada)
Urban and peri-urban lakes experience a wider array of environmental stressors, and often at a higher intensity, than their rural counterparts,...

Anthropogenic Eutrophication Drives Major Food Web Changes in Mwanza Gulf, Lake Victoria
Discerning ecosystem change and food web dynamics underlying anthropogenic eutrophication and the introduction of non-native species is necessary for...

Life history characteristics and distribution of lake sturgeon in an unfragmented section of a northern river
Lake sturgeon ( Acipenser fulvescens ), a potamodromous species, have been impacted by habitat fragmentation. Understanding the variation in population...

Recovery of white-spotted charr Salvelinus leucomaenis following the removal of stocked red-spotted masu salmon Oncorhynchus masou ishikawae in a small headwater tributary of Lake Biwa, central Japan
The possible recovery of a white-spotted charr population in a small tributary of a river to Lake Biwa, following removal of previously stocked...

Cultivable bacteria in the supraglacial lake formed after a glacial lake outburst flood in northern Pakistan
Recently, a supraglacial lake formed as a result of a glacial lake outburst flood (GLOF) in the Dook Pal Glacier. Lake debris and meltwater samples...

Spatiotemporal changes in sedimentary chironomid assemblages across a gradient of lake water pH and metal contamination from the Sudbury (Ontario, Canada) metal-smelting region
Base metal smelting in Sudbury (Ontario, Canada) resulted in marked environmental degradation starting in the late nineteenth century. The...

Surplus-production estimate of historical lake sturgeon biomass in Lake of the Woods
Lake sturgeon ( Acipenser fulvescens ) was historically abundant in Lake of the Woods, Canada/USA, and was the first species to be commercially...

Using a drifting GPS-Argos satellite buoy as a method for detecting acoustic-tagged fish offshore in an ancient lake
BackgroundTelemetry methods that allow low-cost, offshore tracking are required for the effective conservation and sustainable use of migratory fish...

Macroinvertebrate assemblages in acidified mountain lake inflows differs from lake outflows: the influence of lakes
This synoptic study of inflows and outflows of eight atmospherically acidified glacial lakes in the Bohemian Forest, the Czech Republic and Germany,...

Predator telemetry informs temporal and spatial overlap with stocked salmonids in Lake Huron
Double-Crested Cormorants ( Phalacrocorax auratus ), Walleyes ( Sander vitreus ), and Lake Trout ( Salvelinus namaycush ) are migratory predators that...

Legacy effects of acidification and climate warming affect recent recovery of diatom assemblages in Sudbury-region lakes (Ontario, Canada)
Smelting activities have strongly affected the Sudbury (Ontario, Canada) region since the late-nineteenth century, leading to acidification and metal...

Acidification of freshwater lakes in Scandinavia: impacts and recovery of chironomid communities under accelerating environmental changes
We re-examined the effects of acidification on Scandinavian freshwater lakes using paleolimnological reconstructions focused on subfossil...

Climate-change and nonnative-piscivore impacts on a renowned Oncorhynchus metapopulation, requirements for metapopulation recovery, and similarities to anadromous salmonid metapopulations
The native Yellowstone cutthroat trout ( Oncorhynchus clarkii bouvieri ; YCT) of Yellowstone Lake, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA, presents a...

Contemporary reproductive patterns of Snake River Oncorhynchus nerka in Pettit Lake
Maintaining genetic biodiversity is a focal point for conservation of endangered species. As such, reproductive patterns and behaviors are key to...
-
A genome catalogue of lake bacterial diversity and its drivers at continental scale
Lakes are heterogeneous ecosystems inhabited by a rich microbiome whose genomic diversity is poorly defined. We present a continental-scale study of...

Water voles of Lake Hula: assessing their past, present, and future
The southernmost population of Eurasian water vole ( Arvicola amphibius ) inhabited Lake Hula in the upper Jordan Valley until the lake was drained in...

Effects of habitat regime type on fish diversity in a large eutrophic lake
For shallow lakes, the most dramatic ecosystem shift is that from a clear-water, macrophyte-dominated regime to a turbid, phytoplankton-dominated...

Ecosystem-level response to complex disturbances of an interconnected river–lake system based on Ecopath model over the last 30 years
Freshwater ecosystems have been severely disturbed in recent years. However, our understanding of the ecosystem-level changes within freshwater food...
