LakeMIP Kivu: evaluating the representation of a large, deep tropical lake by a set of one-dimensional lake models [PDF]
Tellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2014 The African great lakes are of utmost importance for the local economy (fishing), as well as being essential to the survival of the local people. During the past decades, these lakes experienced fast changes in ecosystem structure and functioning, and ...

Sensitivity of the grassland-forest ecotone in East African open woodland savannah to historical rainfall variation [PDF]
, 2014 . Fossil pollen records provide key insight into the sensitivity of terrestrial ecosystems to climate change at longer time scales. However, tracing vegetation response to relatively modest historical climate fluctuations is often complicated by the ...

Biogeochemical characteristics of a tropical lake [PDF]
, 2023 Biogeochemical analyses of lacustrine environments are well-established methods that allow exploring and understanding complex systems in the lake ecosystem. However, most were conducted in temperate lakes controlled by entirely different physical conditions than in tropical climates.

Perspectives for an integrated understanding of tropical and temperate high-mountain lakes
Journal of Limnology, 2016 High mountain lakes are extreme freshwater ecosystems and excellent sentinels of current global change. They are likely among the most comparable ecosystems across the world. The largest contrast occurs between lakes in temperate and tropical areas.
