Background Submerged plants composed of charophytes (green algae) and angiosperms
develop dense vegetation in small, shallow lakes and in littoral zones of large lakes. Many …

A common perception in limnology is that shallow lakes are homogeneously mixed owing to
their small water volume. However, this perception is largely gained by downscaling …

Mixing and stratification patterns in lakes are critical attributes because they are important
regulators of distribution of gases, solutes and organisms. While numerous studies have …

Small lakes are understudied compared to medium-and large-sized lakes, but have recently
received increased attention due to their abundance and importance for global scale …

While winter storms are generally common in western Europe, the rarer summer storms may
result in more pronounced impacts on lake physics. Using long-term, high frequency …

Integrated assessment of the water environment has become widespread in many rivers,
lakes, and reservoirs; however, aquatic organisms in freshwater are often overlooked in this …

The increasing frequency and intensity of summer heatwaves are pushing freshwater
zooplankton towards their upper thermal tolerance limits. At the same time, higher …

As comunidades zooplanctônicas são importantes componentes na cadeia alimentar
considerando os produtores primários e os demais níveis. Além disso, algumas espécies …

Abstract Background Peatlands contain about 500 Pg of carbon worldwide and play a dual
role as both a carbon sink and an important methane (CH4) source, thereby potentially …

Zooplankton perform daily migrations between pelagic surface waters, where they feed at
night, and either deeper waters (diel vertical migration, DVM) or littoral areas (diel horizontal …
