The determination of ecological status in shallow lakes - a tested system (ECOFRAME) for implementation of the European Water Framework Directive

TL;DR: In this paper, a pan-European typology and classification system was developed for shallow lakes, which can easily be extended to all lakes, and two iterations were tested in the field on tranches of 66 lakes.
Journal ArticleDOI

How important is climate? Effects of warming, nutrient addition and fish on phytoplankton in shallow lake microcosms

TL;DR: The results suggest that fears of an increasing abundance of cyanophytes with current projections of global warming may be unrealized, at least in shallow unstratified lakes still dominated by macrophytes, and emphasize that eutrophication and fish manipulations remain very important impact factors that determine the abundance of phytoplankton and subsequent problems caused by large growths.
Journal ArticleDOI

Response of freshwater microcosm communities to nutrients, fish, and elevated temperature during winter and summer

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report the impact of two warming regimes (continuous 3°C above ambient and 3°c above ambient during summer only), with two nutrient loadings and the presence or absence of fish, on 48 microcosm ecosystems created to mimic shallow pond environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Macro-zooplankter responses to simulated climate warming in experimental freshwater microcosms

TL;DR: Warming, independently, is unlikely to supplant the effects of changing nutrient loading and fish predation as the major driver of zooplankter dynamics in shallow lakes and ponds, and the distinction between summer-only warming and yeararound warming was blurred.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale physical controls on phytoplankton growth in the Irminger Sea Part I: Hydrographic zones, mixing and stratification

TL;DR: In this article, the relative roles of heat and freshwater in controlling re-stratification are examined for each hydrographic zone, and it is shown that the simplest concept of solar warming generating spring stratification is appropriate for the Irminger Current and the central Irmingers Sea.
