Relationship of Epilithic Diatom Communities to Environmental Variables in Yedikır Dam Lake (Amasya, Turkey)
In order to evaluate the composition and seasonal variations of the epilithic diatoms in Yedikır Dam Lake were studied using samples collected from the stones in the barrier area between November 2004 and April 2006. The diatom communities were diverse; 88 taxa were found, belonging to the Bacillariophyta. Cymbella minuta, Cyclotella ocellata and Encyonema silesiacum have become the most abunda...
متن کاملLake Level Fluctuations Boost Toxic Cyanobacterial “Oligotrophic Blooms”
Global warming has been shown to strongly influence inland water systems, producing noticeable increases in water temperatures. Rising temperatures, especially when combined with widespread nutrient pollution, directly favour the growth of toxic cyanobacteria. Climate changes have also altered natural water level fluctuations increasing the probability of extreme events as dry periods followed ...
متن کاملWater Constituents and Water Depth Retrieval from Sentinel-2A - A First Evaluation in an Oligotrophic Lake
Satellite remote sensing may assist in meeting the needs of lake monitoring. In this study, we aim to evaluate the potential of Sentinel-2 to assess and monitor water constituents and bottom characteristics of lakes at spatio-temporal synoptic scales. In a field campaign at Lake Starnberg, Germany, we collected validation data concurrently to a Sentinel-2A (S2-A) overpass. We compared the resul...
متن کاملAge of Lake Malawi (nyasa) and Water Level Fluctuations
Lake Malawi (Nyasa) is one of the few deep-water long-lived lakes that presently exist on earth. It lies in an uncompensated tectonic graben, controlled by differential vertical movements between the rift basin who subsides and the rift shoulders who are uplifted. Active tectonics is the major factor controlling the development and persistence ofthose deep lakes. For Lake Malawi (Nyasa), climat...
متن کاملDrying of Urmia Lake: modeling of level fluctuations
Background: Urmia Lake, the second largest hyper-saline lake of the world, has experienced lack of water and other environmental issues in recent years. Now, there is a danger of the lake drying out, which will affect the region and its inhabitants. This study aimed to present a model which can relate the water level of the lake to effective factors. Methods: Parameters that influence water le...
