Limnology of Lake Rerewhakaaitu

Monsoon influences on the limnology of Juam Lake, South Korea

Korean lakes differ from other temperate counterparts because they are artificially constructed reservoirs and experience an annual hydrologic cycle dominated by a summer monsoon (JONES et al. 1997, 2003, KIM et al. 2001). In this paper we describe how the monsoon influences the general limnology of Juam Lake, South Korea, as a contribution to the growing body of information on processes and se...

SWAIN - LIMNOLOGY , AMINO - ACID CONTENT OF LAKE DEPOSITS Plate Facing

Sedimentary features and amino-acid content are described for several lakes in the Anoka sand plain, east-central Minnesota, other lakes in Minnesota, Flathead Lake, Montana, Pyramid Lake, Nevada, and Catahoula Lake, Louisiana. The limnology of the Anoka Sand Plain lakes is related to the characteristics of the "gray" sandy calcareous Mankato drift of the Des Moines lobe which underlies much of...

Limnology of Lake Tahoe and Its Upland Watershed

An outline of the physical limnology of Lake Malawi (Lake Nyasa)

Lake Nyasa) Lake Malawi, in tropical central Africa, is 560 by 75 km and consists of a single basin, maximum depth 695 m. Below 250 m the lake is homothermal at about 22.5”C and is anoxic. Above this level there is a seasonal cycle with the development of a marked thermocline. By May the upper 60 m is homothermal at about 27°C. During the dry, windy cool season the epilimnion cools but only in ...

Recent climate and limnology changes in Lake Tanganyika

The Bujumbura meteorological station lies at the northern end of the lake (3.32° S, 29.32° E), while the Mbala station is situated 40 km from the southern end (8.85° S, 31.33° E). Both stations are part of the World Meteorological Organisation network. The lake temperature was measured with a CTD12+ instrument (accuracy ±0.01 °C) and an automatic ANDERAA thermistor string installed in the south...
