Atatürk Dam Lake, which was established on the Euphrates River for agricultural irrigation and electricity production, is largest dam lake in Turkey. Many fish species, are primary food source humans, live lake. Therefore, possible pollution this will adversely affect not only but also human health. For purpose, study, lead, cadmium, chromium, iron, zinc, copper levels were measured liver, gill...

Jelantik Village is one of the 13 (thirteen) villages in Jonggat District. has various undeveloped tourism potentials including beautiful river channels, geotourism potential, shadow puppet art cultural tourism, bicycle tracks with views rice fields, and Dam (Telaga Ijo) which stunning views. Among Village, most potential to attract tourists. Some advantages include scenery, fresh air, easy acc...

The ubiquitous lakes across China’s Yangtze Plain (YP) are indispensable freshwater resources sustaining ecosystems and socioeconomics for nearly half a billion people. Our recent survey revealed a widespread net decline in the total YP lake inundation area during 2000–2011 (a cumulative decrease of 10%), yet its mechanism remained contentious. Here we uncover the impacts of climate variability...

The delineation of lateral and vertical gradients of organic contaminants in lakes is hampered by low concentrationsand nondetection of many organic compounds in water. Passive samplers (semipermeable membrane devices [SPMDs] and polar organic chemical integrative samplers [POCIS]) are well suited for assessing gradients because they can detect synthetic organic compounds (SOCs) at pg L(-1) con...

Pymatuning Lake, located on the Pennsylvania/Ohio border, is noted for the large numbers of bread-eating carp that frequent the Linesville Causeway "carp bowl" from May to November. Carp were trapped in 1952 and 1984 at the carp bowl, tagged, and relocated varying distances away from the bowl in Sanctuary, Middle, and Lower lakes. Carp traversed the return distances of up to 9 km in less than 4...

We used an annual time series (August 2004 until August 2005) of ENVISAT-ASAR data, supported by two ASTER scenes to investigate ice dam fluctuations and changes of the surface area of the marginal lake Grænalón. The lake occupies a lateral valley, dammed by the westernmost flow band of Skeiðarárjökull, one of the largest outlets of Vatnajökull ice cap. During the period of investigation Skeiða...

It is located 650m above sea level along the boundary between the North Caribbean and Pacific slopes, near the Southern end of the volcanic Guanacaste mountain range. In the early 1980s the lake's main outlet was dammed and the outflow was diverted into Arenal Reservoir. Lake Cote was first studied in 1990-1991, and later in 2001, before it was again modified by raising its dam by one meter to ...

Current paradigms of reservoir ontogeny suggest that water-level fluctuations may increase sedimentary nutrient release, causing long-term eutrophication of water bodies formed by dryland flooding. Less is known of the changes in nutrient status following conversion of natural lakes into reservoirs. Here, we use historical hydrological and limnological data and paleolimnological records of sedi...
