Patterns of seasonal phytoplankton distribution in prairie saline lakes of the northern Great Plains (U.S.A.)

Seasonal changes in freshwater phytoplankton communities have been extensively studied, but key drivers of phytoplankton in saline lakes are currently not well understood. Comparative lake studies of 19 prairie saline lakes in the northern Great Plains (USA) were conducted in spring and summer of 2004, with data gathered for a suite of limnological parameters. Nutrient enrichment assays for nat...

Nutrient availability and phytoplankton nutrient limitation across a gradient of atmospheric nitrogen deposition.

Atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition to lakes and watersheds has been increasing steadily due to various anthropogenic activities. Because such anthropogenic N is widely distributed, even lakes relatively removed from direct human disturbance are potentially impacted. However, the effects of increased atmospheric N deposition on lakes are not well documented. We examined phytoplankton biomass, t...

Evaluating diatom succession: some pecularities of the Great Lakes case

Succession of diatom communities in the Laurentian Great Lakes has several unusual aspects related to physical and chemical characteristics peculiar to these large systems and the constraints these conditions impose upon species which inhabit the Great Lakes. In such systems, paleolimnological reconstructions based on strict analogy to succession patterns in smaller lakes may be incomplete and,...

Phytoplankton growth and phosphate uptake ( for P limitation ) by natural phytoplankton populations from the Loosdrecht lakes ( The Netherlands ) ’

Phosphate uptake capacity of natural phytoplankton populations was used as a physiological indicator of P limitation in the Loosdrecht lakes. During a substantial period of the growth season of 1983, P-limited growth was observed in Lake fireukeleveen and Lake Loosdrecht, but P limitation was less severe in the latter. In Lake Breukeleveen the maximum initial phosphate uptake rate (V,,) varied ...

Response to Phosphorus Limitation Varies among Lake Populations of the Freshwater Snail Potamopyrgus antipodarum

Local adaptation--typically recognized as higher values of fitness-related traits for native vs. non-native individuals when measured in the native environment--is common in natural populations because of pervasive spatial variation in the intensity and type of natural selection. Although local adaptation has been primarily studied in the context of biotic interactions, widespread variation in ...
