This report summarizes the results of summer studies of five soft water lakes, five hard water lakes and six calcareous spring ponds in Wisconsin with respect to the composition of the plankton and aufwuchs communities and the relative role of desmids in those communities. The results are compared with similar data obtained from selected acid bog lakes, alkaline bog lakes and closed bogs. Soft water lakes harbored a greater aufwuchs and plankton desmid diversity than hard water lakes or spring ponds; however, diversity in acid bog lakes was substantially greater than in any other lake type. Utricularia contained the greatest desmid diversity and population density in every lake where it occurred. Staurastrum was the most prevalent genus in the plankton and it was the only one recorded from hard water lakes and calcareous spring ponds. Desmid aufwuchs population densities were roughly comparable in hard water lakes, soft water lakes and acid bogs and the contribution of desmids to the total aufwuchs population was similar for the latter two lake types. However, the plankton of acid bog lakes generally harbored substantially greater desmid populations and these populations contributed much more to the total population than in any other lake type. Aufwuchs data are presented for several hosts and comparisons of population densities are given among hosts within a given lake and between the same host in different lakes of a given type. Data for other algal groups are also included. 相似文献

Evaluating climatic and non-climatic influences on ion chemistry in natural and man-made lakes of Nebraska,USA 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Conductivity and major ion chemistry data were analyzed for a suite of Nebraska (USA) natural lakes, reservoirs, sand pits,
and barrow pits to evaluate the magnitude of climatic versus non-climatic influence on ionic concentration and composition.
In both natural lakes and sand and barrow pits, conductivity is positively related to longitude and reflects decreasing effective
moisture from east to west. Reservoirs showed no relationship between lake conductivity and location, probably because the
reservoirs are very strongly influenced by groundwater and surface water inflow and have shorter residence times relative
to the other lake types. At smaller spatial scales, conductivity among natural lakes is variable. Lakes that are at low elevation
within a groundwater flow system were fresh, because of substantial input of fresh groundwater. In contrast, lakes at high
elevation exhibited a wide range of conductivity, probably because of differences in the degree of connection to groundwater
and surface to volume ratio impacts on evaporation rates. Differences also were evident among natural lakes in terms of their
response to seasonal changes in precipitation. Sub-saline and saline lakes showed more seasonal variation in conductivity
than freshwater lakes, and lakes in the more arid part of the state showed larger responses to precipitation change than those
in areas to the east that receive higher precipitation. 相似文献

Characteristics of oligotrophic hardwater lakes in a postglacial land-rise area in mid-Sweden 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
1. We describe some remarkable ephemeral, oligotrophic hardwater lakes formed because of land rise in the coastal areas of the Baltic Sea, that are unique in Sweden and probably also worldwide. Two younger, coastal lakes were studied by regular sampling for 1 year and compared with an older (i.e. greater altitude) lake, that passed through the oligotrophic hardwater stage some 3–4000 years ago. 2. Despite some differences in composition of the catchment, the two younger lakes were similar with regard to water chemistry and plankton community composition. The concentration of phosphorus was low while nitrogen was high, resulting in very high N/P quotients (101 and 131). Although water colour was moderate, the concentration of organic carbon was extremely high (average values of ≥ 20 μg TOC L–1), consisting mainly of dissolved compounds (DOC). 3. While the plankton was poorly developed, sediments in both lakes were covered by a layer of photosynthesising micro‐organisms. This substantial `microbial mat', which has not been described in detail before, was up to 15 cm thick and dominated by cyanobacteria and purple sulphur bacteria. The concentration of sediment phosphorus was extremely low (352 μg g–1 dw) in one of the lakes and dominated by organic‐bound (residual) phosphorus. 4. Deep sediments in the older lake, representing its oligotrophic hardwater period, differed in phosphorus composition from the currently oligotrophic hardwater lakes by having a strong dominance of HCl‐extractable (Ca‐bound) phosphorus. This indicates that phosphorus, initially organic‐bound within the microbial mat, is subsequently bound to calcium. We hypothesise that this is promoted by the environmental conditions created by the benthic photosynthetic activity, in combination with the prevailing hardwater conditions. 5. The rich and flourishing microbial community on the sediments may also explain the high concentration of DOC in the lake. 相似文献

A limnological survey of eight small, atmospherically acidified, forested glacial lakes in the Bohemian Forest (?umava, Böhmerwald) was performed in September 2003. Water chemistry of the tributaries and surface layer of each lake was determined, as well as species composition and biomass of the plankton along the water column, and littoral macrozoobenthos to assess the present status of the lakes. The progress in chemical reversal and biological recovery from acid stress was evaluated by comparing the current status of the lakes with results of a survey four years ago (1999) and former acidification data since the early 1990s. Both the current chemical lake status and the pelagic food web structure reflected the acidity of the tributaries and their aluminium (Al) and phosphorus (P) concentrations. One mesotrophic (Ple?né jezero) and three oligotrophic lakes (?erné jezero, ?ertovo jezero, and Rachelsee) are still chronically acidified, while four other oligotrophic lakes (Kleiner Arbersee, Prá?ilské jezero, Grosser Arbersee, and Laka) have recovered their carbonate buffering system. Total plankton biomass was very low and largely dominated by filamentous bacteria in the acidified oligotrophic lakes, while the mesotrophic lake had a higher biomass and was dominated by phytoplankton, which apparently profited from the higher P input. In contrast, both phytoplankton and crustacean zooplankton accounted for the majority of plankton biomass in the recovering lakes. This study has shown further progress in the reversal of lake water chemistry as well as further evidence of biological recovery compared to the 1999 survey. While no changes occurred in species composition of phytoplankton, a new ciliate species was found in one lake. In several lakes, this survey documented a return of zooplankton (e.g., Cladocera: Ceriodaphnia quadrangula and Rotifera: three Keratella species) and macrozoobenthos species (e.g., Ephemeroptera and Plecoptera). The beginning of biological recovery has been delayed for ~20 years after chemical reversal of the lakes. 相似文献

Four subtropical mountain lakes in western Nepal were investigated for their plankton content and hydrographical conditions. Phytoplankton species composition, vertical distribution and seasonal variations were studied, and physical (temperature, visibility, electrical conductivity) and chemical (pH-value, alkalinity) properties of the lakes measured. The lakes rank among the subtropical monomictic type with thermal stratification and have a very low electrical conductivity. The phytoplankton (made up of diatom-desmid and dinoflagellate associations) comprised a mixture of species from tropical, Indo-Malayan and temperate regions; species from temperate regions, however, predominated. 相似文献

We sampled 30 lakes in Costa Rica in the wet season (July–August) of 1991 for phytoplankton (with integrated and whole water samples), and 17 for zooplankton (with net tows). Taxa of plankton and community richness were poorly related to geography, morphology, chemistry, and other biota. Neither the zooplankton nor the phytoplankton appeared to influence the composition of the other, and neither were apparently influenced by the presence of fish.Phytoplankton richness reflected primarily sampling method, but also tended to decrease with elevation and with Secchi disk depth, and tended to increase with pH and alkalinity. Chlorophytes were the most abundant division in 14 lakes; these lakes tended to be unstratified, turbid, and located at higher elevation. Diatoms were common in 4 of the 7 lakes with elevated silica (over 30 ppm). Each lake showed at least a 3 : 1 dominance by copepods, cladocera, or insect larvae. Copepods dominated 7 of the 17 lakes, most of which were shallow, turbid, and had low alkalinity. Cladocera dominated 7 lakes that were typically deeper and located at low-to mid-elevations. Insect larvae dominated two small, turbid lakes. 相似文献

The respiration of plankton of two polyhumic lakes was measured as production of carbon dioxide in dark bottles. The method proved to be enough sensitive for use in oligotrophic lakes with low alkalinity. The respiration of plankton followed broadly changes in temperature. However, the primary production of phytoplankton was probably the main factor governing the seasonal pattern of respiration. During summer the respiration of plankton was more than three times higher than the primary production of phytoplankton. This suggests that allochthonous humic substances are an important source of carbon and energy for organisms of polyhumic lakes. 相似文献

The biology and evolution of Antarctic saline lakes in relation to salinity and trophy 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
. Five brackish to hypersaline lakes (Highway, Ace, Pendent, Williams and Rookery) in the Vestfold Hills, eastern Antarctica were investigated during the austral summer of 1999/2000. The aims were to characterise the functional dynamics of the plankton and gain an understanding of how the different environments in the lakes have led to the evolution of different communities. The plankton was dominated by microorganisms and differed across the salinity spectrum in relation to trophy, age and the presence of meromixis. However, some elements of the plankton were common to all of the lakes, e.g. the mixtrophic ciliate, Mesodinium rubrum, which reached abundances of 2.7᎒5 l-1 and spanned a salinity gradient of 4-63. Marine dinoflagellate species also occurred in all of the lakes, often at high abundances in Highway Lake, Pendent Lake and Lake Williams. During December (mid-summer), primary production showed an increase along the salinity gradient from Highway Lake to Lake Williams; however, it was low in hyper-nutrified Rookery Lake because of the turbidity of the waters. Bacterial production followed the same trend and was extremely high in Rookery Lake (327 µg l-1 h-1 in January). The lakes possessed a marine microbial plankton that has become very simplified through time, and now contains a small number of highly successful species, which were pre-adapted to surviving in extreme Antarctic lakes. 相似文献

Succession of planktonic rotifer populations in some lakes of the Eastern Rift Valley,Kenya 总被引:4,自引:4,他引:0
Thomas Nogrady 《Hydrobiologia》1983,98(1):45-54
The quantitative succession of the spring and summer rotifer plankton and its biomass in six lakes of the Eastern Rift Valley of Kenya is discussed. The lakes can be divided into two groups: the low conductivity slightly alkaline lakes Naivasha, Oloidien and the Winam Gulf of Lake Victoria; and the high conductivity, highly alkaline-saline lakes Nakuru, Elmenteita and Bogoria. The former three show a qualitatively rich, typical warmwater rotifer association dominated by Brachionids and Filinia. The saline soda lakes are dominated by several populations of Brachionus dimidiatus, which can reach enormous numbers. The taxonomy and biometry of this species was subjected to statistical analysis. Some interesting and rare species are described: Anuraeopsis coelata, Lepadella triptera f. deconincki, Trichocerca gracilis and T. mus.The chemical limnology of the lakes is discussed and compared with other soda lakes in Central Africa, Europe and North America. 相似文献

Impact of hydrology on phyto- and zooplankton community composition in floodplain lakes along the Lower Rhine and Meuse 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Floodplain lakes along the rivers Lower Rhine and Meuse in TheNetherlands can be categorized according to their hydrologyand geomorphology. The impact of hydrology on the summer planktoncommunity composition in 100 floodplain lakes was studied bymultivariate analyses (TWINSPAN, FLEXCLUS, DCA) of relativeabundance data of plankton. The phyto- and zooplankton communitycomposition in floodplain lakes is clearly related to hydrology,relevant nutritional resources and habitat characteristics,mainly via input of N and P from the eutrophic main channelsduring floods. The plankton species richness was related tothe complexity of habitats formed by the presence of aquaticvegetation. There was a good agreement between the ecologicaland the environmental characterization of site groups. Cyanobacteria,Chlorophyta and filter-feeding zooplankton taxa associated withopen water are characteristic for floodplain lakes with a longannual flood duration, low Si/N and Si/P ratios, and a poorlydeveloped aquatic vegetation. Bacillariophyceae and scrapingzooplankton taxa associated with aquatic macrophytes are characteristicfor floodplain lakes with a short annual flood duration, highSi/N and Si/P ratios, and a well-developed aquatic vegetation.It is concluded that the restoration of connections betweenrarely flooded lakes and the highly eutrophic main channelsof the Lower Rhine and Meuse will result in hypertrophic conditionsand a reduced plankton diversity in these lakes. 相似文献

Plankton communities of three Central Florida lakes 总被引:5,自引:5,他引:0
Frank G. Nordlie 《Hydrobiologia》1976,48(1):65-78
A study of planktonic primary productivity and community structure was carried out on three lakes of varying morphometric and chemical features, but which were within a single watershed in Central Florida. Primary productivity in these lakes was evaluated by means of in situ light and dark bottle determinations as well as by calculations based upon chlorophyll and light data. Lake Mize, a deep sinkhole lake containing highly colored waters of low pH, proved to be a very unproductive lake, while Biven's Arm, a shallow-basin lake with alkaline waters and Newnan's lake, a shallow-basin like with highly colored waters both showed relatively high productivities. Phytoplankton components of the two productive lakes were quite similar to one another in being composed of bloom-forming blue-green and green algae, while the predominant forms in Lake Mize were chrysophytes, dinoflagellates and a diatom. Zooplanktonic forms were more uniform among the lakes than were the phytoplankton, though population levels reflected relative productivities among the lakes. Rotifers predominated in the Lake Mize plankton while cladocerans were relatively inabundant. This was opposite to the condition in Biven's Arm and Newnan's Lake. It is suggested that the constant presence of larval Chaoborus in the water column in Lake Mize may be partially responsible for the paucity of cladocera. 相似文献

Microbial eukaryotes hold a key role in aquatic ecosystem functioning. Yet, their diversity in freshwater lakes, particularly in high‐mountain lakes, is relatively unknown compared with the marine environment. Low nutrient availability, low water temperature and high ultraviolet radiation make most high‐mountain lakes extremely challenging habitats for life and require specific molecular and physiological adaptations. We therefore expected that these ecosystems support a plankton diversity that differs notably from other freshwater lakes. In addition, we hypothesized that the communities under study exhibit geographic structuring. Our rationale was that geographic dispersal of small‐sized eukaryotes in high‐mountain lakes over continental distances seems difficult. We analysed hypervariable V4 fragments of the SSU rRNA gene to compare the genetic microbial eukaryote diversity in high‐mountain lakes located in the European Alps, the Chilean Altiplano and the Ethiopian Bale Mountains. Microbial eukaryotes were not globally distributed corroborating patterns found for bacteria, multicellular animals and plants. Instead, the plankton community composition emerged as a highly specific fingerprint of a geographic region even on higher taxonomic levels. The intraregional heterogeneity of the investigated lakes was mirrored in shifts in microbial eukaryote community structure, which, however, was much less pronounced compared with interregional beta‐diversity. Statistical analyses revealed that on a regional scale, environmental factors are strong predictors for plankton community structures in high‐mountain lakes. While on long‐distance scales (>10 000 km), isolation by distance is the most plausible scenario, on intermediate scales (up to 6000 km), both contemporary environmental factors and historical contingencies interact to shift plankton community structures. 相似文献

Summary The plankton of twelve freshwater and slightly saline lakes in the Vestfold Hills, Antarctica was sampled in February 1991. All of the lakes are oligotrophic. The chlorophyll a concentrations in the lakes ranged from 0.10–2.69 g · 1–1. The majority of the phytoplankton were flagellates or picoplanktonic cyanobacteria with the species composition varying between the lakes. Cyanobacteria were found in five of the lakes. Five to 6 species of ciliated protozoa occurred, among them oligotrichs, including the mixotrophic species Strombidium viride. The concentrations of protists and bacteria were an order to several orders of magnitude lower than reported from lower latitude oligotrophic lakes. Low species diversity and low numbers in the plankton characterise these eastern Antarctica lakes which reflects their low nutrient status and isolation. 相似文献

Data from two surveys of the Tatra Mountain lakes (Slovakia and Poland) performed in the autumns of 1984 (53 lakes) and 1993 or 1994 (92 lakes) were used to estimate spatial variability in water chemistry in this lake district during the period of maximum European acid deposition. The ionic content of the lakes was generally low, with conductivity (at 20°C) ranging from 1.1 to 4.7 mS m?1 and 23% of the lakes had a depleted carbonate buffering system. Major factors governing differences in lake-water chemistry were bedrock composition and amount of soil and vegetation in their catchment areas. Compared to lakes in the predominantly granitic central part of the Tatra Mountains, lakes in the West Tatra Mountains had higher concentrations of base cations and alkalinity due to the presence of metamorphic rocks in the bedrock. Concentrations of phosphorus, organic carbon, organic nitrogen, and chlorophyll-a were highest in forest lakes and decreased with decreasing density of vegetation and soil cover in the catchment areas. Concentrations of nitrate showed an opposite trend. Several exceptions to these general patterns in chemical and biological composition were due to exceptional geology or hydrology of the lake catchments. 相似文献

A regular and distinct feature of seasonal plankton succession in temperate lakes is the early summer period of algal suppression by herbivores, i.e. the clear water phase. Within the last 30 years the timing of this food-web interaction between algae and herbivores has advanced on average by approximately two weeks in central European lakes due to faster population growth of herbivores in warmer water. Trend and inter-annual variability in clear water timing were strongly related to the climate dynamics of the North Atlantic, i.e. the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). Due to its large-scale effects, the NAO synchronized plankton succession in central European lakes, causing a striking temporal coherence of a food-web interaction over several hundreds of kilometers. 相似文献

1. Changes in cladoceran subfossils in the surface sediments of 54 shallow lakes were studied along a European latitude gradient (36–68°N). Multivariate methods, such as regression trees and ordination, were applied to explore the relationships between cladoceran taxa distribution and contemporary environmental variables, with special focus on the impact of climate. 2. Multivariate regression tree analysis showed distinct differences in cladoceran community structure and lake characteristics along the latitude gradient, identifying three groups: (i) northern lakes characterised by low annual mean temperature, conductivity, nutrient concentrations and fish abundance, (ii) southern, macrophyte rich, warm water lakes with high conductivity and high fish abundance and (iii) Mid‐European lakes at intermediate latitudes with intermediate conductivities, trophic state and temperatures. 3. Large‐sized, pelagic species dominated a group of seven northern lakes with low conductivity, where acid‐tolerant species were also occasionally abundant. Small‐sized, benthic‐associated species dominated a group of five warm water lakes with high conductivity. Cladoceran communities generally showed low species‐specific preferences for habitat and environmental conditions in the Mid‐European group of lakes. Taxon richness was low in the southern‐most, high‐conductivity lakes as well as in the two northern‐most sub‐arctic lakes. 4. The proportion of cladoceran resting eggs relative to body shields was high in the northern lakes, and linearly (negatively) related to both temperature and Chl a, indicating that both cold climate (short growing season) and low food availability induce high ephippia production. 5. Latitude and, implicitly, temperature were strongly correlated with conductivity and nutrient concentrations, highlighting the difficulties of disentangling a direct climate signal from indirect effects of climate, such as changes in fish community structure and human‐related impacts, when a latitude gradient is used as a climate proxy. Future studies should focus on the interrelationships between latitude and gradients in nutrient concentration and conductivity. 相似文献

1. Five oligotrophic clear‐water lakes on the Faroe Islands were studied during August 2000. Algal and bacterial production rates, community respiration, and CO2 saturation were determined. In addition, we examined the plankton community composition (phytoplankton and heterotrophic nanoflagellates) and measured the grazing pressure exerted by common mixotrophic species on bacteria. 2. High respiration to primary production (6.6–33.2) and supersaturation of CO2 (830–2140 μatm) implied that the lakes were net heterotrophic and that the pelagic heterotrophic plankton were subsidised by allochthonous organic carbon. However, in spite of the apparent high level of net heterotrophy, primary production exceeded bacterial production and the food base for higher trophic levels appeared to be mainly autotrophic. 3. We suggest that the observed net heterotrophy in these lakes was a result of the oligotrophic conditions and hence low primary production in combination with an input of allochthonous C with a relatively high availability. 4. Mixotrophic phytoplankton (Cryptomonas spp., Dinobryon spp. and flagellates cf. Ochromonas spp.) constituted a large percentage of the plankton community (17–83%), possibly as a result of their capacity to exploit bacteria as a means of acquiring nutrients in these nutrient poor systems. 相似文献

Limnological research on northern Apennine lakes (Italy) in relation to eutrophication and acidification risk 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Substantial variability was found in the water chemistry of 22 northern Apennine lakes. In a group of lakes there is evidence
of disturbance linked to eutrophication processes. Other lakes showed weak ion concentrations and alkalinity below the acidification
risk threshold. However no acidified lakes were found. The lack of waterbodies with severely altered hydrochemistry may explain
why no clear relationship between plankton community structure and water chemistry was observed. 相似文献
