Lake restoration influences nutritional quality of algae and consequently Daphnia biomass
2020
AbstractFood quality is one of the key factors influencing zooplankton population dynamics. Eutrophication drives phytoplankton communities toward the dominance of cyanobacteria, which means a decrease in the availability of sterols and long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (EPA and DHA). The effects of different restoration measures on the nutritional quality of the phytoplankton community and subsequent impacts on zooplankton biomass have rarely been considered. We analyzed the nutritional quality of phytoplankton in the eutrophic Lake Vesijärvi in southern Finland over a 37-year period, and studied the impacts of two restoration measures, biomanipulation and hypolimnetic aeration, on th…
Lakes in the era of global change: moving beyond single‐lake thinking in maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services
2020
The Anthropocene presents formidable threats to freshwater ecosystems. Lakes are especially vulnerable and important at the same time. They cover only a small area worldwide but harbour high levels of biodiversity and contribute disproportionately to ecosystem services. Lakes differ with respect to their general type (e.g. land-locked, drainage, floodplain and large lakes) and position in the landscape (e.g. highland versus lowland lakes), which contribute to the dynamics of these systems. Lakes should be generally viewed as ‘meta-systems’, whereby biodiversity is strongly affected by species dispersal, and ecosystem dynamics are contributed by the flow of matter and substances among locati…

Rehevöityneen järven ekologisen tilan parantaminen : Hauhonselän ongelmakohtien selvitys
2015
Ihmistoiminnan aiheuttama pintavesien rehevöityminen on maailmanlaajuisesti yksi suurimmista vesiensuojelullisista ongelmista. Rehevöityminen johtuu kasvulle tärkeimpien ravinteiden pitoisuuksien kasvusta, mikä mahdollistaa perustuotannon lisääntymisen. Rehevöitymisen vaikutukset näkyvät lopulta ravintoverkon kaikilla trofiatasoilla. Rehevöitymisen seurauksena järven ekosysteemin rakenne ja toiminta muuttuvat niin, että järven kyky tarjota ekosysteemipalveluja heikkenee. Pintavesien rehevöitymisen ja muiden vesiensuojelullisten ongelmien hallitsemiseksi Euroopan Unioni on luonut yhtenäisen vesipolitiikan jäsenvaltioiden kesken. Vuonna 2000 voimaan tulleen EU:n vesipolitiikan puitedirektiivi…
