The Economics of Shallow Lakes [PDF]

Environmental and Resource Economics, 2000
Ecological systems such as shallow lakes are usually non-linear and display discontinuities and hysteresis in their behaviour. These systems often also provide conflicting services as a resource and a waste sink. This implies that the economic analysis of these systems requires to solve a non-standard optimal control problem or, in case of a common ...

Dianchi Shallow Lake Management [PDF]

, 2021
AbstractLake Dianchi in the Chinese province Yunnan is a shallow lake suffering from algae blooms for years due to high pollution. We conducted a thorough survey of the water quality of the northern part of the lake called Caohai. This study was intended as the basis for the system understanding of the shallow lake of Caohai. The study consisted of two

Regime Shifts in Shallow Lakes [PDF]

Ecosystems, 2007
Every now and then the usual scenario of fluctuations around trends in ecosystems is interrupted by sharp shifts to a different regime (Scheffer and others 2001; Carpenter 2003). Similarly, reconstructions of past climatic dynamics reveal various spectacularly rapid changes punctuating episodes of relative stability (Rial and others 2004), and also ...

A Cognitive Model of an Epistemic Community: Mapping the Dynamics of Shallow Lake Ecosystems [PDF]

, 2005
We used fuzzy cognitive mapping (FCM) to develop a generic shallow lake ecosystem model by augmenting the individual cognitive maps drawn by 8 scientists working in the area of shallow lake ecology.

Quantifying measures to limit wind driven resuspension of sediments for improvement of the ecological quality in some shallow Dutch lakes [PDF]

, 2012
Although phosphorus loadings are considered the main pressure for most shallow lakes, wind-driven resuspension can cause additional problems for these aquatic ecosystems. We quantified the potential effectiveness of measures to reduce the contribution of

Design of an integrated shallow water wave experiment [PDF]

, 1997
The experimental design and instrumentation for an integrated shallow-water surface gravity wave experiment is discussed. The experiment required the measurement of the water surface elevation, meteorological parameters, and directional spectra at a ...

A new occurrence of a classic "Árpád-type" mollusc fauna from the Upper Miocene of Kozármisleny, southern Hungary [PDF]

, 2013
A classic but very rare “Árpád-type”mollusc assemblage, representing the endemic fauna of the Late Miocene–Early Pliocene Lake Pannon, was discovered in Kozármisleny (near Pécs, southern Hungary).

Alternative Attractors of Shallow Lakes [PDF]

The Scientific World JOURNAL, 2001
Ponds and shallow lakes can be very clear with abundant submerged plants, or very turbid due to a high concentration of phytoplankton and suspended sediment particles. These strongly contrasting ecosystem states have been found to represent alternative attractors with distinct stabilizing feedback mechanisms.
