European shallow, alkaline, saline lakes are potential indicators of climate change. Diatoms
have often been reported as valuable proxies for different kinds of anthropogenic activities …

Salinity represents a major structuring factor in aquatic habitats which strongly affects
species richness. We studied the relationships among species richness, density and …

Despite the high conservation value of intermittent soda pans, these habitats were mostly
targeted by small‐scale studies and little is known about their microscopic fauna. We …

The European soda pans of the Carpathian Basin provide important stopover sites for
several waterbird species. We studied the effect of different invertebrate food types and other …

In constantly changing complex social-ecological systems conservation organisations need
to take steps toward adaptive co-management if they want to be effective in their …

The taxonomic and metabolic diversity of prokaryotes and their adaptability to extreme
environmental parameters have allowed extremophiles to find their optimal living conditions …

The distribution of Branchinecta orientalis, B. ferox and Chirocephalus carnuntanus was
assessed in the natural and semi-natural astatic soda pans of the Carpathian basin. In …

Abstract Study region Lake Velence. Study focus Soda lakes are extreme habitats whose
special hydrochemical characteristics can partly be explained by groundwater inflow. The …

As a result of the groundwater level decline observed in the last two decades and the socio-
economic changes, we assume that a drastic alteration begins in the landscape pattern of …

The aim of this study was to estimate the population sizes, food resources, food selection
and trophic regulation of aquatic birds in these soda pans. We classified the estimated …
