MODELING OF BIVALVE HABITATION IN A SHALLOW BRACKISH LAKE

Modeling and Managing Shallow Lake Eutrophication

Seasonal changes in icefish diel feeding patterns in Lake Chaohu, a large shallow eutrophic lake of China

Seasonal changes in the diel feeding patterns of the zooplanktivorous icefish (Neosalanx taihuensis), which is an endemic species of China, were studied in the large, shallow eutrophic Lake Chaohu of China during the autumn of 2002 and summer of 2003. The results of the diel feeding rhythm indicate that icefish is a visual particulate feeder. There were large differences in diet composition and...

Limnological Study on Lonar Lake: A Unique Brackish Crater Lake in India

Lonar lake is a inland saline crater lake of only one of its kind in Asia, which depicts unique limnology and biodiversity. Studies were undertaken to evaluate its unique ecosystem. Wetlands of this lake have archaeological significance. Due to its importance to the humans, studies were carried out with regard to its water quality in terms of physico-chemical characteristics, heavy metal concen...

Anatomy of a turbulent patch in a large shallow lake

Temperature microstructure casts are often analyzed to compute the diapycnal diffusivity Kρ in geophysical flows. In the present study, we analyze 17 microstructure casts obtained during a Kelvin-Helmholtz billowing event at the base of the upper mixed layer in Lake Erie. From these casts, the turbulence properties of the mixing event are investigated and six parameterizations are applied to de...
