Abstract:

Many studies have shown that macrophytes play a significant role in controlling eutrophication; however, only a few of these are based on macrophyte biomass. Based on the growth characteristic of macrophytes, we propose an approach for the assessment of the optimal biomass of macrophytes in the decay and growth periods in Lake Datong (a shallow lake), using a lake ecological model. The results showed that the pollution load of the lake should be reduced by 50% while conforming to the Environmental Quality Standards for Surface Water (EQSSW) Class Ⅲ. In contrast, with an increase in the polluti

Abstract:

Degradation of lake ecosystem is a common problem existing in many countries. Remediation of degraded lake is urgently needed in order to maintain water safety and lake ecosystem health. Restoration of submerged macrophyte is considered as an important measure of ecological remediation of shallow lakes after pollution loading get effectively controlled. Nowadays, enclosures resembling those used in aquaculture historically are widely used for submerged macrophyte restoration. Although submerged macrophyte can be successfully restored in enclosure, it’s contribution to the whole lake ecological

Abstract:

We examined the relationship between environmental factors and the richness of submerged macrophytes species in 73 Danish lakes, which are mainly small, shallow, and have mesotrophic to hypertrophic conditions. We found that mean species richness per lake was only 4.5 in acid lakes of low alkalinity but 12.3 in lakes of high alkalinity due to a greater occurrence of the species-rich group of elodeids. Mean species richness per lake also increased significantly with increasing Secchi depth. No significant relationship between species richness and lake surface area was observed among the entire

Shallow lakes experience alternative states in their biotic organisation over time. In this study, we analysed a long-term dataset on the recovery from eutrophication of a shallow hypertrophic lake (Lake Major, Hungary) following fish manipulation. Disturbances in the food web triggered a shift, markedly affecting both abiotic and biotic variables. Clear and turbid states of Lake Major over the period 1999–2009 were defined by concentrations of chlorophyll-a. Lake Major in a clear-water state had higher transparency and submerged macrophyte cover, lower turbidity and fish biomass, and total ph

Subsequently, microcosm experiments were conducted to determine if single species of different types of macrophytes in an isolated environment would alter the BCC.

Shallow lakes according to the alternative states theory may present extremely different environmental conditions, clear water with abundant growth of macrophytes and turbid water with cyanobacterial blooms. The deterioration of water quality led to visible changes within submerged macrophytes and thus in available habitats for plant-associated biocenosis. Larvae of chironomids are the most numerous and widely distributed macroinvertebrates. Since benthic chironomids are used in the monitoring of environmental changes and in paleolimnological research, epiphytic chironomids are not well known

Abstract:

Stoichiometric C : N : P ratios were compared between primary producers in littoral and pelagic ecosystems of mesotrophic relatively shallow lake Obsterno and shallow macrophyte covered low trophic lake Nobisto from May to October over the next two years. Elemental seston ratios of lake Obsterno revealed smaller differences between littoral and pelagic zones in comparison with lake Nobisto in 2017. During the studied period, in the both lakes, the seston C : N and C : P ratios were higher than the Redfield ratio (106 : 16 : 1 C : N : P) on most dates and N : P was always more than 16. Pelagic

Abstract:

Lake eutrophication often causes declines and even losses of submerged macrophytes through the shading effects of increased periphyton and phytoplankton. The Chinese swamp shrimp Neocaridina denticulata sinensis Kemp (Decapoda, Atyidae) is a common omnivore in Chinese lakes, where its presence may impact both periphyton and phytoplankton, with previously unstudied consequences for submerged macrophytes. Here, using a mesocosm experiment, we studied the effect of N. d. sinensis on periphyton, phytoplankton and the submerged macrophyte Vallisneria denseserrulata. Results showed that in the prese

Abstract:

Strong human impact accelerates eutrophication which deteriorates water quality and consequently prevents recreational use. Increasing trophy and low transparency induce macrophyte rebuilding. A gradual transformation of the land use of the direct catchment area of Raczyńskie Lake from agricultural to recreational has been observed over the last 45 years. In built-up areas sewage facilities were inadequate and septic tanks did not work properly and as a consequence most wastewater was able to infiltrate through the ground into the lake. The lake ecosystem became unstable and water blooms inten

Abstract:

Complex interactions between epiphytic fauna and microbial food webs in periphyton are vital to the ecosystem ecology of shallow lakes. However, little is known about how different types of macrophyte dominated lakes may influence microbial and metazoan communities. The goal of the present study was to examine the impact of metazoan on microbial food web in three different types of lakes (Stratiotes-dominated,Ceratophyllum-dominated andPotamogeton-dominated). The results of this study suggest a strong correlations between chironomid larvae, small Metazoa and microbial communities in the periph

Abstract:

The presence of dense macrophyte canopies in shallow lakes locally generates thermal stratification and the buildup of labile organic matter, which in turn stimulate the biological oxygen demand. The occurrence of hypoxic conditions may, however, be buffered by strong wind episodes, which favor water mixing and reoxygenation. The present study aims at explicitly linking the wind action and water oxygenation within dense hydrophytes stands in shallow lakes. For this purpose, seasonal 24 h-cycle campaigns were carried out for dissolved gases and inorganic compounds measurements in vegetated stan

In prey size preference experiments with single prey species, male and female T. chiltoni consumed more small than large amphipods in the absence of the macrophyte Elodea canadensis, but were not selective when macrophytes were present. When offered small and large Daphnia, T. chiltoni males consumed more small than large Daphnia, whereas female

Light traps were used to assess larval abundance and chronology of appearance in Chemung Lake in 1982. Eleven of 21 resident species were captured, totalling 7234 individuals. The most abundant were yellow perch (2809), Iowa darter (2571), pumpkinseed sunfish (1288), bluntnose minnow (200), and carp (123). Iowa darter and pumpkinseed were taken only as prolarvae (yolk-sac larvae) and postlarvae, but yellow perch, from 5 to 33 mm total length, were attracted. Common carp and bluntnose minnow entered traps almost exclusively as prolarvae (6–13 mm and 6–12 mm total length, respectively). Perch ha

Abstract:

Eutrophication is one of the major ecological problems of our era. It accelerates the growth of aquatic plant and algae, eventually leading to ecological deterioration. Based on a 700-day lab experiment, this paper investigated the contrasting effects of sediment microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) on the removal of macrophyte litter in a macrophyte-dominated area and an algae-dominated area from two bay areas of a shallow eutrophic lake. The results revealed that the removal efficiencies of total organic carbon increased by 14.4% in the macrophyte-dominated area and 7.8% in the algae-dominated area.

Light is a fundamental driver of ecosystem dynamics, affecting the rate of photosynthesis and primary production. In spite of its importance, less is known about its community-scale effects on aquatic ecosystems compared with those of nutrient loading. Understanding light limitation is also important for ecosystem management, as human activities have been rapidly altering light availability to aquatic ecosystems. Here we show that decreasing light can paradoxically increase phytoplankton abundance in shallow lakes. Our results, based on field manipulation experiments, field observations and mo
