Mountain lakes are often situated in protected natural areas, a feature that leads to their role
as sentinels of global environmental change. Despite variations in latitude, mountain lakes …

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

Now in its second edition, Pollution of Lakes and Rivers provides essential insights into
present-day water quality problems from an international perspective. Explains simply and …

Human activity in the last century has led to a significant increase in nitrogen (N) emissions
and atmospheric deposition. This N deposition has reached a level that has caused or is …

Abstract In the western United States vast acreages of land are exposed to low levels of
atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition, with interspersed hotspots of elevated N deposition …

Lake sediments constitute natural archives of past environmental changes. Historically,
research has focused mainly on generating regional climate records, but records of human …
