Assessing the importance of river bank erosion for fine sediment delivery to Bassenthwaite Lake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Available evidence from lake sediment core records and short-term sediment flux sampling programs has suggested increased fine sediment deposition and suspended sediment transfers to Bassenthwaite Lake, Cumbria, U.K over recent decades. This increase in

Nutrient cycling in Lake Kivu

open access: yes, 2012
This chapter summarizes the knowledge on mixing and transport processes in Lake Kivu. Seasonal mixing, which varies in intensity from year to year, influences the top ∼65 m. Below, the lake is permanently stratified, with density increasing stepwise from

Methane formation and future extraction in Lake Kivu

open access: yes, 2012
This chapter summarises the current knowledge on the vertical distribution of methane (CH4) and its formation in Lake Kivu. Additionally, we review the objectives and restrictions under consideration for sustainable extraction (safe, environmentally ...

Effects of El Niño on the dynamics of Lake Alchichica, central Mexico [PDF]

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional, 2003
Lake Alchichica is a deep, warm-monomictic lake in Puebla State, central Mexico. Water temperature, dissolved oxygen and chlorophyll a annual concentration patterns are compared under ENSO and non-ENSO conditions.

Climatic and tectonic controls on source-to-sink processes in the tropical, ultramafic catchment of Lake Towuti, Indonesia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Humid tropical landscapes are subject to intense weathering and erosion, which strongly influence sediment mobilisation and deposition. In this setting, we aimed to understand how geomorphology and hydroclimate altered the style and intensity of erosion ...

Remote sensing, numerical modelling and ground truthing for analysis of lake water quality and temperature

open access: yes, 2014
Freshwater accounts for just 2.5% of the earth’s water resources, and its quality and availability are becoming an issue of global concern in the 21st century.

Temporal and spatial variations in phytoplankton productivity in surface waters of a warm-temperate, monomictic lake in New Zealand

open access: yes, 2010
Surface phytoplankton productivity measurements were carried out in morphologically complex Lake Rotoiti with the objective of defining variations between sites and seasons, and the dominant environmental drivers of these variations.
