Freshwater cyanobacterial blooms have become ubiquitous, posing major threats to
ecological and public health. Decades of research have focused on understanding drivers of …

Relieving phosphorus loading is a key management tool for controlling Lake Erie
eutrophication. During the 1960s and 1970s, increased phosphorus inputs degraded water …

The topics assessed in this chapter were last assessed by the IPCC in 2007, principally in
WGII AR4 Chapters 3 (Kundzewicz et al., 2007) and 4 (Fischlin et al., 2007), but also in WGII …

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) can have dire repercussions on aquatic wildlife and human
health, and may negatively affect recreational uses, aesthetics, taste, and odor in drinking …

Algae, the dominant primary producers in many aquatic ecosystems, are critical to global
biogeochemical cycling, and changes in their abundance and composition can cascade …

Climate change is affecting lake stratification with consequences for water quality and the
benefits that lakes provide to society. Here we use long‐term temperature data (1970–2010) …

Cyanobacteria are predicted to increase due to climate and land use change. However, the
relative importance and interaction of warming temperatures and increased nutrient …

Anthropogenic-induced changes in nutrient ratios have increased the susceptibility of large
temperate lakes to several effects of rising air temperatures and the resulting heating of …

Water temperatures and stratification are important drivers for ecological and water quality
processes within lake systems, and changes in these with increases in air temperature and …

Abstract The (Lower) Lake of Zurich provides an ideal system for studying the long‐term
impact of environmental change on deep‐water hypoxia because of its sensitivity to climatic …
