Spurious Certainty: How Ignoring Measurement Error and Environmental Heterogeneity May Contribute to Environmental Controversies

TL;DR: It is suggested that, instead of being a curse, multiple studies with conflicting findings often provide an opportunity to expand and refine the authors' understanding of complex environmental systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Free‐water lake metabolism: addressing noisy time series with a Kalman filter

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used simulated and field data to determine if metabolism estimates from metalimnetic data containing noise can be improved by accounting for both process and observation error in models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Century-long effects of forest harvest on the physical structure and autotrophic community of a small temperate lake

TL;DR: Comparison of high-resolution cores recovered from exposed, sheltered, and reference lake basins showed that annual laminations of sediments ceased concomitant with logging, indicating a fundamental change in the lake mixing regime.
