Cicle de conferències 2014-2015. Lecture. Who eats all the leaves that fall into lakes?
(2015-05-11)Lakes in forested landscapes may receive great amounts of leaves during autumnal litterfall. However, almost nothing is known on the fate of the carbon and energy from these leaves in lakes. We studied ... -
Defining ecologically relevant water quality targets for lakes in Europe
(2014)1. The implementation of the Water Framework Directive requires EU member states to establish and harmonize ecological status class boundaries for biological quality elements. In this paper, we describe ... -
Ecological impacts of global warming and water abstraction on lakes and reservoirs due to changes in water level and related changes in salinity
(2015)According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report released in September 2014, unprecedented changes in temperature and precipitation patterns have been recorded globally in recent ... -
New tools to analyse the ecological status of mediterranean wetlands and shallow lakes
(2016)The efforts done in Catalonia (Spain) to assess the ecological status of Mediterranean wetlands and shallow lakes are described. The term wetland includes all shallow lentic waterbodies, temporary or ... -
Role of predation in biological communities in naturally eutrophic sub-Arctic Lake My´vatn, Iceland
(2017)Effects of fish predation on consumers tend to be particularly strong in oligotrophic Arctic and sub-Arctic lakes. However, it remains unclear whether the fish influence the trophic structure and dynamics ... -
The body size structure of lake fish and its response to biotic interactions and environmental variation
(2017-07-19)Body size is perhaps the simplest metric to quantify in an organism but with a powerful background in the ecological framework. The thesis focused on the study fish body size structure at different ... -
The importance of environmental variables for submerged macrophyte community assemblage and coverage in shallow lakes: differences between northern and southern Europe
(2015)Much information is available on community composition and abundance of submerged macrophytes in North temperate lakes, including their response to variation in environmental variables. Less is known ... -
The influence of depth and macrophyte habitat on paleoecological studies using chironomids: Enol Lake (Spain) as a case study
(2018)Paleolimnological studies often rely on a single sediment core for reconstructing past environmental changes of an entire lake system. This involves a number of assumptions about the correct representativeness ...
