Reductions in the dietary niche of southern sea otters (Enhydra lutris nereis) from the Holocene to the Anthropocene. [PDF]
, 2020 The sea otter (Enhydra lutris) is a marine mammal hunted to near extinction during the 1800s. Despite their well-known modern importance as a keystone species, we know little about historical sea otter ecology.

Trophic State: A Useful Scale for Classifying Lakes Based on Biological Productivity
EDISLakes are diverse and come in all shapes and sizes. The Trophic State Classification System allows people to group waterbodies into one of four categories, called “trophic states,” based on their level of biological productivity.

Nitrogen is unlikely to consistently limit primary productivity in most tropical lakes
Ecosphere, 2023 Despite mounting evidence that tropical lakes may experience an array of phytoplankton nutrient limitation regimes, references to low‐latitude lakes being predominantly nitrogen limited remain common in the literature. To assess the current understanding

Evaluating the influence of lake morphology, trophic status and diagenesis on geochemical profiles in lake sediments [PDF]
, 2010 Recent geochemical studies provide evidence that changes in vertical distributions of nutrients in lake sediments are driven by anthropogenic activities, based primarily on trends of increasing concentrations in upper sediment layers.
