River-lake migration of fishes in the Dongting Lake area of the Yangtze floodplain
Journal of Applied Ichthyology, 2012Over the past few decades, fish resources have declined severely owing to the riverlake disconnection within the Yangtze River floodplain. Studies on fish migrations between rivers and floodplain waters are imperative for fish resources restoration and lake management.

Remote sensing of lakes and floodplains in the Amazon basin
Remote Sensing Reviews, 1994Abstract Remote sensing of the lakes and floodplains in the Amazon basin has provided quantitative information on open water, floating macrophytes and flooded forests, and regional inundation. Side‐looking airborne radar (X‐band) imagery permitted measurement of lake shapes and areas. Satellite altimeters permitted estimation of stage for large rivers.

Depth as an organizer of fish assemblages in floodplain lakes
Aquatic Sciences, 2010Depth reduction is a natural process in floodplain lakes, but in many basins has been accelerated by anthropogenic disturbances. A diverse set of 42 floodplain lakes in the Yazoo River Basin (Mississippi, USA) was examined to test the hypothesis of whether depth reduction was a key determinant of water quality and fish assemblage structure.

Hydrological control of system characteristics of floodplain lakes
Ecohydrology & Hydrobiology, 2006Abstract Water bodies within floodplains are strongly governed by their hydrological connectivity with the main river (Heiler et al. 1995). Connectivity is decisive for the general ecosystem characteristics and the balance between input and output of nutrients and organic carbon sources.

The ecology of cyanobacteria in the temperate floodplain lake
2016Cvjetanje cijanobakterija je u današnje vrijeme prepoznato kao karakteristika slatkovodnih eutrofnih ekoloških sustava širom svijeta. U dinamičnim sustavima rijeka-poplavno područje, dinamika i intenzitet plavljenja može se okarakterizirati kao kontrolni čimbenik cvjetanja cijanobakterija jer su one posebno osjetljive na stres uzrokovan plavljenjem.

Carbon sources of fish in an Amazonian floodplain lake
Aquatic Sciences, 2006In a tropical floodplain lake in central Amazon (L. Camaleao), we investigated seasonal shifts in primary carbon sources for commercially important fish species over an hydrological cycle. Carbon and nitrogen stable isotope and stomach content analyses were conducted to investigate the feeding preferences of six species with different feeding habits ...

The Physical Dynamics of the River–Lake Floodplain System
2007The Parana River is the second largest river in South America in terms of catchment area (1.51 million km2), the second longest (4,400 km from the headwaters of Grande River in Brazil to the Rio de la Plata estuary), and the third in terms of discharge (about 470 km3 of freshwater carried to the sea annually).
