the trophic state of patagonian argentinean lakes and its relationship with depth distribution in sediment phosphorus
the parameters used to determine the trophic state of a water body are: total phosphorus (tp),transparency (secchi disk depth) and chlorophyll a. however, these parameters show strong seasonalfluctuations which may hinder the estimation of trophic state. some authors have proposed that sediments be used as an additional tool to evaluate the trophic state of a water body. the aim of this study w...
متن کاملDetermination of the historical variation of the trophic state in lakes using sediment stratigraphies
Biogenic silica (BSi) and phosphorous (P) accumulation were investigated in sediment cores from Karlskärsviken, a bay of Lake Mälaren. The aim was to make use of BSi and P relations in sediment stratigraphies in order to investigate the historical nutrient trophy in a near shore lake environment since the Middle Ages, with focus on industrial times, and to evaluate anthropogenic influences on t...
متن کاملEutrophication potential of lakes: an integrated analysis of trophic state, morphometry, land occupation, and land use.
Despite being inside a protected area, Lake Sumidouro has been impacted by the anthropogenic occupation of the surrounding area since the 1970's, compromising the ecological integrity of the lake and the sustainable use of natural resources. This study examined the current trophic classification of the lake and developed methods for improving it through an integrated analysis of morphometric an...
متن کاملUrea and ureolytic activity in lakes of different trophic status.
Urea and uraease (U-ase) activity were determined in water samples taken from the surface layers of 17 lakes of different trophic status. Urea concentrations were inversely correlated with the trophic status of the studied lakes and varied from below the detection limit to 25 micromol l(-1). Maximal potential ureolytic activity (V(max)) ranged from 0.2 to 7.0 micromol l(-1) h(-1). The highest u...
