  1. 1. Predictive Modeling of Lake Eutrophication

    Author : Jan Mikael Malmaeus; Lars Håkanson; Kurt Pettersson; Jürg Bloesch; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; mass balance model; dynamic model; mechanistic model; phosphorus; LEEDS; suspended particulate matter; settling velocity; sedimentation; accumulation sediments; burial; diffusion; climate scenario; Erken; Balaton; Kinneret; Batorino; Miastro; Naroch; Galten; Ekoln; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis presents predictive models for important variables concerning eutrophication effects in lakes. The keystone is a dynamic phosphorus model based on ordinary differential equations. READ MORE

  2. 2. The decline of great Arctic charr in Lake Vättern : empirical and theoretical analyses of suggested causes

    Author : Malin Setzer; Tomas Jonsson; Bo Ebenman; Mark C. Emmerson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Naturvetenskap;

    Abstract : Human activity is affecting species and ecosystems all over the world. In aquatic systems negative trends can be seen for many fish stocks and potential consequences of this, for ecosystem structure and functions, are of particular concern. READ MORE

  3. 3. Organic Phosphorus Compounds in Aquatic Sediments : Towards Molecular Identification with Mass Spectrometry

    Author : Heidi De Brabandere; Monica Waldebäck; Emil Rydin; Per J. R. Sjöberg; Rolf Danielsson; William T. Cooper; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; electrospray ionisation; mass spectrometry; liquid chromatography; organic phosphorus; aquatic sediment; eutrophication; sample preparation; extraction; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : Phosphorus (P) regulates trophic status in most aquatic systems. However, only bioavailable P contributes to primary production. In most lakes and shallow seas, mineralisation of sediment P into its bioavailable form and its release to the water column is important for maintaining primary production. READ MORE

  4. 4. Restoration of Nutrient Rich Lakes - Towards Better Understanding of Sediment Phosphorus Availability and Management

    Author : Oskar Agstam; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Lakes are important for many reasons as they provide valuable ecological and human services, such as drinking water and recreational use. Eutrophication, a result of excess nutrients (e.g. phosphorus (P)) in lakes, is a threat to these resources, causing impairment of water quality. READ MORE

  5. 5. Hydrodynamics of very shallow lakes - A study in Lake Krankesjön, Sweden

    Author : Charlotta Borell Lövstedt; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; alternative stable states; field measurements; reed; resuspension; wave damping; waves; differential heating; vegetation; convective currents;

    Abstract : Shallow lakes have great ecological and recreational values. They are also largely affected by humans, mainly through eutrophication, and great efforts are therefore being put into the understanding of these ecosystems. The knowledge is however not complete, and more research is needed to manage these lakes in a sustainable way. READ MORE
