Elevated fine sediment input from terrestrial and aquatic sources as a result of
anthropogenic activity is widely recognized to impact negatively on aquatic ecosystems. In …

The bleak Alburnus alburnus is a medium body-size leuciscid fish that is naturally distributed
across central European and western Asian fresh waters. However, during the last two …

In 36 south Finnish lakes, the number of species, as well as the cyprinids: percids ratio, was
dependent, not only on total phosphorus (TP), but also on lake size. Total fish biomass and …

Fish play a key role in the functioning of temperate shallow lakes by affecting nutrient
exchange among habitats as well as lake trophic structure and dynamics. These processes …

The effects of floating-leaved, submerged and emergent macrophytes on sediment
resuspension and internal phosphorus loading were studied in the shallow Kirkkojärvi basin …

Variation in substrate association types and maximum size of aquatic insects were studied in
a vegetated littoral zone of three lake basins. The basins differed from each other in trophic …

The catchability of a gillnet reduces as the fish accumulate in it. This may skew the
estimations of relative fish abundance or community structure. Two lakes with different fish …

Boreal lakes demonstrate pronounced seasonality, where the warm open-water season and
subsequent cold and ice-covered season dominate natural cycles. While fish muscle total …

The effects of biomanipulation were studied in ten Finnish lakes to determine responses in
fish and plankton communities and water quality after mass removal of cyprinids. From 1997 …

Ontogenetic diet patterns and trophic guild structure of a 15 species temperate lake fish
assemblage were analysed over wide size intervals (up to seven orders of magnitude in …
