Paleohydrological changes in an Amazonian floodplain lake: Santa Ninha Lake
Journal of Paleolimnology, 2012 Holocene environments have been reconstructed by sedimentological, mineralogical and organic geochemical analysis of a 270-cm core from Santa Ninha Lake, a floodplain lake in lower Amazonia. Dated by fourteen AMS-radiocarbon dates, the sediment core has a basal age of 5,600 cal years BP and different sedimentary units were identified.

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022 Exploitation of bitumen-rich deposits in the Alberta Oil Sands Region (AOSR) by large-scale mining and processing activities has generated widespread concern about the potential for dispersal of harmful contaminants to aquatic ecosystems via fluvial and ...

Carbon sedimentation in shallow floodplain lakes [PDF]
Limnology and OceanographyAbstractShallow lakes are increasingly recognized as important sites for organic carbon (OC) storage. However, the drivers of OC deposition in shallow floodplain lakes remain unclear due to complex terrestrial and aquatic interactions. Using 8 yr of monthly sediment trap data in a cross‐ecosystem experiment on six UK shallow lakes of varying riverine ...

The importance of oxbow lakes in the floodplain storage of pollutants [PDF]
Geology, 2021 Abstract Oxbow lakes are important stores for fine-grained sediment, which potentially makes them critical sinks for sediment-associated pollutants. We leverage an exhaustive public archive of coring data, supplemented by our data collection, to provide a quantitative assessment of the role of oxbows as off-channel sinks. We investigated

Evaluation of environmental condition: water and sediment examination of oxbow lakes [PDF]
Acta Geographica Debrecina. Landscape & Environment Series, 2011 As a result of the river regulation a number of oxbow lakes have arisen in the floodplain of the Lower-Tisza. The floodplain lakes represent natural values and major recreation areas of the lowland region.

Flood did not cause the taxonomic and functional homogenization of Chironomidae (Diptera) community in a Neotropical floodplain [PDF]
Acta Limnologica Brasiliensia: Aim We investigated the hypothesis that flood decreases the taxonomic and functional beta diversity of Chironomidae (Diptera) larvae among floodplain lakes, causing biotic homogenization. Methods We collected benthic samples using a modified Petersen

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2010 We conducted a study to test the hypothesis that interconnectedness among island floodplain lakes and the adjacent Solimões River during the flood stage of the hydrologic cycle is enough to maintain similarity in fish species assemblages.
