One possible exception is the zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha), an invader that routinely restructures food webs through an ecosystem engineering process termed “benthification.” By efficiently consuming phytoplankton, zebra mussels can increase light penetration and nutrient concentrations in the benthos of a lake, thereby stimulating growth of benthic periphyton (phytobenthos) and macroinvertebrates (zoobenthos). Few studies monitor the response of these benthic communities to invasion. We documented early changes in phytobenthos and zoobenthos as zebra mussels invaded eutrophic Lake Mendota (Wisconsin, USA). From 2015 to 2018, the number of zebra mussel individuals reached densities >30 000 m−2 on hard substrates and 3000 m−2 in macrophyte beds. Community data showed classic signs of benthification, including 300% increases in (non-zebra mussel) zoobenthos and phytobenthos abundance on average across a depth gradient, including significant increases at depths where zebra mussels did colonize. Deep macrophyte biomass increased 900%, but water clarity showed no significant rapid increase. We speculate that nutrient enrichment may be more strongly responsible than increased light penetration for the benthic response of Lake Mendota. Continued integration of benthic production and processes into our study of lake ecosystems will be critical to understanding whole ecosystem function, especially as zebra mussels continue to “benthify” lakes within their invaded range.","PeriodicalId":49061,"journal":{"name":"Inland Waters","volume":"12 1","pages":"311 - 329"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2022-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46204004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mexico lacks GHG emission estimates for its inland waters, and only sparse but scientifically validated information is available. This study provides the first GHG emission estimates from Mexican inland waters using 4275 GHG flux measurements from 26 distinctive waterbodies and one local and another global surface area dataset (INEGI and HydroLAKES). GHG emission factors were calculated and subsequently upscaled to estimate total national GHG emissions from the inland waters and compare to other emission measures based on mean global emission factors or size-productivity weighted (SPW) models. Mean (standard error) annual fluxes from all inland waters were 2.2 (5.3) kg CO2 m−2 yr−1, 0.6 (1.14) kg CH4 m−2 yr−1, and 1.0 × 10−3 (6.0 × 10−4) kg N2O m−2 yr−1. Estimates for natural waterbodies are annual average release rates between 74 (87) and 139 (163.23) Tg CO2eq while artificial waterbodies reach between 32 (2) and 21 (21) Tg CO2eq according to INEGI and HydroLAKES datasets, respectively. Considerable uncertainty was determined in the calculated mean emission factor, mostly for anthropogenic emissions. Waterbody area and chlorophyll a concentration were used as proxies to model CO2 and CH4 fluxes through regression analysis. According to SPW and IPCC models, computed mean annual CH4 emission factors were close to our estimates and exhibited a strong influence from eutrophication. In a likely scenario of increased eutrophication in Mexico, an increase in total net emissions from inland waters could be expected.","PeriodicalId":49061,"journal":{"name":"Inland Waters","volume":"12 1","pages":"294 - 310"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2022-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48406755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Biodiversity of the algal community was estimated using Simpson’s Diversity Index and community-weighted mean trait value (functional diversity index). Specific community respiration and photosynthesis assimilation number were considered as the functional traits characterizing the role of phytoplankton in cycling organic matter. The observed temporal trends in the diversity indices provided estimates of the shift in the biotic community from large, relatively faster aerobic decomposing and slower photosynthesizing producers towards slower aerobic decomposing and faster photosynthesizing producers. These trends were confirmed by the results of direct determination of community respiration and (indirectly) by the reduced microbial activity in the epilimnetic waters of the lake.","PeriodicalId":49061,"journal":{"name":"Inland Waters","volume":"12 1","pages":"499 - 509"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48091503","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They are based on geometric means, which reduce the influence of extreme temporal variation measured in individual reservoirs. This analysis of 3 conservation reservoirs, managed to benefit recreational fisheries, details how internal processes can alter nutrients, chlorophyll, mineral turbidity, and transparency in long-term (21–42 year) datasets, which contribute to temporal variation. Management practices include the addition of grass carp and herbicides to control nuisance macrophytes and shoreline stabilization with rock and water willow. Among these reservoirs, there is strong evidence that macrophyte removal can increase pelagic nutrients by >90%, resulting in a switch to plankton-dominated conditions (alternative states). In one case, eradication of aquatic vegetation increased mineral turbidity by >60%, which was reversed by reestablishing macrophytes and stabilizing the shoreline. This temporal series supports the modifications of phytoplankton–nutrient relations by mineral turbidity shown in state-wide analyses. Collectively, the long-term data show a significant increase in cyanobacteria biovolume and cyanotoxins, with maximum microcystin concentrations increasing as much as 20 times. Actively flipping lakes to plankton-dominated systems via fisheries management and shoreline stabilization practices has negative impacts on overall water quality, with implications for human and wildlife health.","PeriodicalId":49061,"journal":{"name":"Inland Waters","volume":"12 1","pages":"354 - 367"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2022-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44999553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We observed a strong seasonal pattern in the stream that interacted with the analysed stressors by having synergistic, but also antagonistic, responses on the ecosystem structural parameters. Both damming and a decrease in precipitation reduced the water flow of the stream and increased its temperature, which promoted an increase in algal and macroinvertebrate biomass at the expense of the biodiversity of their communities, a situation expected to worsen in a climate change context. The decrease in precipitation also increased the concentration of metals and metalloids in the water column and in biofilms, but the water diversion from damming reduced their contributions downstream. The maintenance of an adequate ecological flow in dam-impounded streams is encouraged to overcome these impacts in the current climate change context. More field studies are needed to assess how multiple anthropogenic stressors interact and threaten the ecosystem integrity in a realistic and applied context.","PeriodicalId":49061,"journal":{"name":"Inland Waters","volume":"12 1","pages":"434 - 450"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42859860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the severity of the phenomenon has increased over time, and late-summer dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations have typically been <3 mg L−1 in recent years. In situ, high-frequency observations of oxygen depletion at multiple depths reveal that while DO consumption during stratification occurs most rapidly in the metalimnion, there is synchrony between DO time series extending into the hypolimnion. A biochemical oxygen demand-based modeling approach suggests that much of the relationship between water depth and respiration rates can be explained by differences in water temperature. The amount of labile organic matter present throughout the water column at the onset of stratification seems to be a primary determinant of the severity of the annual metalimnetic DO minimum in late summer. Productivity has increased in the lake as a result of increased nutrient loading and is the likely driver of the decrease in minimum DO concentrations. In addition, the onset and duration of stratification is an important factor in determining the severity of the DO minimum.","PeriodicalId":49061,"journal":{"name":"Inland Waters","volume":"12 1","pages":"331 - 340"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45210875","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We collected a unique 5-year time series of major ion, nutrient, and trace metal data from lakes in the Mackenzie Delta (NT, Canada) to examine limnological changes during a period of variable flood conditions, including years of recent historic high and low peak river levels. Previous work in the Mackenzie Delta has established that lake water chemistry is strongly related to connection time with the river during the period of spring ice-jam flooding or via channel connections through the growing season. We show that differences in peak spring water levels explain differences in lake chemistry in lakes isolated from the channel during the summer. Isolated, macrophyte-rich lakes in the Mackenzie Delta have been shown to be CO2 absorbers during summer. We demonstrate a response to alterations in flood regime by variables related to macrophyte productivity in isolated lakes with the greatest connectivity to the river that suggests productivity declines with increasing connection time. The connectivity of low-elevation lakes, which represent a majority of lake number and area in the Mackenzie Delta, has been projected to increase with climate change. Our work suggests that an increase in connection time may decrease the macrophyte productivity of these lakes, with potential consequences to the CO2 balance of individual lakes and the Mackenzie Delta as a whole.","PeriodicalId":49061,"journal":{"name":"Inland Waters","volume":"12 1","pages":"341 - 353"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42265673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we report the first evidence of an extant freshwater sponge fauna in Jackson Lake, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming (USA). Two sponge species were identified living in shallow littoral and shoreline environments: Eunapius fragilis (Leidy 1851) and Ephydatia muelleri (Lieberkühn 1856). The spicules of Eunapius fragilis present high morphological variability, in contrast to gemmuloscleres reported in specimens from lakes and rivers in southern South America and eastern North America. Ephydatia muelleri also exhibits morphological differences in comparison to published examples, chiefly related to the spines on megascleres. The megascleres of Ephydatia muelleri are straight or slightly curved, sharpening gradually toward the apices, with completely smooth surfaces (13%), surfaces with minimal spines (65%), or highly spined surfaces in the central area (22%). These morphological differences in the Ephydatia muelleri megascleres suggest the potential for ecophenotypic effects in Jackson Lake. Furthermore, the morphological and ecological variability of Eunapius fragilis and Ephydatia muelleri observed in Jackson Lake suggest the need for further studies of the Nearctic to understand if a species complex exists or if morphological dissimilarities are indicative of true taxonomic differences and therefore multiple new species.

The interaction between eutrophication and climate change, particularly climate warming, was explicitly focused upon a decade ago by Brian Moss and others in “Allied attack: climate change and eutrophication,” which called for an integrated response to both problems, given their apparent synergy. In this review, we summarise advances in the theoretical framework and empirical research on this issue and analyse the current understanding of the major drivers and mechanisms by which climate change can enhance eutrophication, and vice versa, with a particular focus on shallow lakes. Climate change can affect nutrient loading through changes at the catchment and landscape levels by affecting hydrological patterns and fire frequency and through temperature effects on nutrient cycling. Biotic communities and their interactions can also be directly and indirectly affected by climate change, leading to an overall weakening of resilience to eutrophication impacts. Increasing empirical evidence now indicates several mechanisms by which eutrophying aquatic systems can increasingly act as important sources of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, particularly methane. We also highlight potential feedback among eutrophication, cyanobacterial blooms, and climate change. Facing both challenges simultaneously is more pressing than ever. Meaningful and strong measures at the landscape and waterbody levels are therefore required if we are to ensure ecosystem resilience and safe water supply, conserve biodiversity, and decrease the carbon footprint of freshwaters.","PeriodicalId":49061,"journal":{"name":"Inland Waters","volume":"12 1","pages":"187 - 204"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42438514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We constructed a mass-balance trophic model using an Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE) modelling suite for large shallow Lake Võrtsjärv, Estonia. The model was calibrated for 36 years (1983–2018) and included 23 functional groups. We examined trophic relationships, functional group interactions, energy fluxes, and keystone groups having a high impact on the ecosystem relative to their biomass. We tested 6 hypothetical scenarios based on future biomass changes for the major functional groups (phytoplankton, zooplankton, macrozoobenthos, piscivorous fish, and bream) for 20 years. The output of the predictive scenarios showed that the biomass changes of planktonic groups would affect the whole food web. Among consumers, macrozoobenthos was crucial for the food web balance because a reduction of their biomass would also reduce the biomass of the fish community. Changes in fish catches would cause minimal biomass difference in other groups. While increased fishing pressure on large piscivores would have a marked effect on the rest of the food web, the reduction of nonpiscivorous fish like bream would have little effect. The results suggested a positive relationship between the biomass of small phytoplankton and fish, alluding to the prevalence of bottom-up trophic processes. These outcomes could be helpful for assessing trophic dynamics in shallow lakes and important aspects for fisheries and ecosystem management.","PeriodicalId":49061,"journal":{"name":"Inland Waters","volume":"12 1","pages":"368 - 382"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47912749","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
