Swimming in clear lakes: How model coupling with R helps to improve water quality
نویسندگان
چکیده
Scientific understanding of complex ecological systems is inherently difficult, and numerous theoretical and management models have emerged. Each model has its own purpose, philosophy, and implementation. Often, tunnel-vision and wheel re-invention are hindering scientific exchange [3] and in response, ecological modelers have started to develop platforms and interfaces to support scientific and technical exchange.

Background and Objective: Contamination of swimming pools’ water can lead to the transfer of different diseases to humans. The aim of this study was to investigate the water quality health indicators in Urmia swimming pools. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 14 active covered swimming pools in Urmia city were chosen as census. The physical parameters such as pH, tem...
متن کاملDetermination and Simulation of Water Quality in Karkheh River Using QUAL2K Model
Karkheh river is located in southwestern of Iran. Industrial and agricultural activities around the river contaminate it through its path. Water quality modeling from upstream of Shoosh city to downstream was simulated by QUAL2K model. In this study, we investigated how best to manage the quality of Karkheh river to be done. Nine parameters including BOD, COD, DO, PH, turbidity, nitrate, phosph...
متن کاملBenthic-planktonic coupling, regime shifts, and whole-lake primary production in shallow lakes.
Alternative stable states in shallow lakes are typically characterized by submerged macrophyte (clear-water state) or phytoplankton (turbid state) dominance. However, a clear-water state may occur in eutrophic lakes even when macrophytes are absent. To test whether sediment algae could cause a regime shift in the absence of macrophytes, we developed a model of benthic (periphyton) and planktoni...
متن کاملAssessment of the antidepressant effect of Rosa Canina L. petal extracts in mice by forced swimming stress model
Introduction: Rosa Damasca essential oil is currently used as anti-depressant in animal models and human. Considering the similarities between Rosa Canina and Rosa Damasca, the effects of water and alcoholic extracts of R. Canina on depression induced by forced swimming test (FST) in mice were investigated. Methods: Male NMRI mice (25-30 g) were used (n=6/group). Intraperitoneal injections o...
متن کاملFormation of a deep pit lake: case study of Aguas Claras, Brazil
The paper presents the case study of the current formation of a Brazilian pit lake from an iron ore mining activity. The water used for the filling of the lake comes from rain, ground water and the complementary pumpage from a close river. At its final stage, which will be reached around year 2018, Lake Aguas Claras will have a surface area of 0.67 km2 and the depth of 234 m, which will make it...
