ABSTRACT A methodical approach for the assessment of pelagic biomass and the main
carbon fluxes in remote and hardly accessible mountain lakes was elaborated and tested …

The reservoir size and pathway rates of the nitrogen (N) cycle have been deeply modified by
the human enhancement of N fixation, atmospheric emissions, and climate warming …

Hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCHs; α‐and γ‐isomers), endosulfans (α‐and β‐isomers and the
sulfate residue), hexachlorobenzene (HCB), dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDTs), and …

Lake Redó, a dimictic oligotrophic mountain lake, was monitored for two complete years
from July 1996 to July 1998. The main seasonal variations in the physical, chemical and …

With the aim to determine the contribution of development and reproduction to the variability
in the elemental composition of zooplankton, we measured the carbon (C), hydrogen (H) …

The BIODEP model in terms of atmosphere–lake interactions was developed. The model
was applied to an oligotrophic, dimictic high altitude lake (Lake Redo, Pyrenees) for a range …

This chapter addresses the question of why the high mountain lakes of Sierra Nevada
(Spain) areunique remote sensorsof global change. The answers arise from a set of peculiar …

Stable isotope studies have been extremely useful for improving general food web
descriptions due to their ability to simultaneously summarize complex trophic networks and …

Bacteria and Archaea of the air–water surface microlayer (neuston) and plankton from three
high mountain lakes (Limnological Observatory of the Pyrenees, Spain) were analysed by …

Here we present the chemical trends of seven high altitude lakes, analysed within the AL:
PE and MOLAR Projects of the EU (1999) and selected on the basis of the availability of …
