Recent findings indicate that increased atmospheric deposition of nitrogen of human origin has caused changes in the pattern of ecological nutrient limitation in lakes in the northern …
Species assemblages of diatoms, rotifers, chydorids, planktonic crustaceans and chironomids were studied in 235 alpine lakes in the Alps, Pyrenees, Tatras (Western …

Elevated and chronic nitrogen (N) deposition to N-limited terrestrial ecosystems can lead to 'N saturation', with resultant ecosystem damage and leaching of nitrate (NO 3−) to surface …
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 …
Contamination by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) has been observed at high elevation environments; however, the occurrence and spatial variation of PAHs in alpine …
Alpine lakes receive a large fraction of their nutrients from atmospheric sources and are consequently sensitive to variations in both the amount and chemistry of atmospheric …
The study of the relationships between vascular aquatic macrophyte occurrence, species richness and the local environment are central for suitable ecosystem quality assessments …
A survey of c. 350 remote high altitude and high latitude lakes from 12 different mountain regions across Europe was undertaken to explore ecosystem variability, climate forcing …
