Spatial heterogeneity strongly affects estimates of ecosystem metabolism in two north temperate lakes
To characterize the spatial variability of metabolism estimates (gross primary production [GPP], respiration [R], and net ecosystem production [NEP]) in two Northern Wisconsin lakes, we collected data from 27 and 35 dissolved oxygen sensors placed in a two-dimensional array throughout the upper mixed layers over a period of 10 d per lake in midsummer. Averaged over the deployment, aerial metabo...
متن کاملTerrestrial dominance of organic matter in north temperate lakes
[1] Aquatic ecosystems are hotspots of decomposition and sources of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere that are globally significant. Carbon exported from land (allochthonous) also supplements the carbon fixed by photosynthesis in aquatic ecosystems (autochthonous), contributing to the organic matter (OM) that supports aquatic consumers. Although the presence of terrestrial compounds in aquatic O...
متن کاملSpatial heterogeneity and lake morphology affect diffusive greenhouse gas emission estimates of lakes
[1] Most estimates of diffusive flux (F) of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) from lakes are based on single-point flux chamber measurements or on piston velocity (k) modeled from wind speed and single-point measurements of surface water gas concentrations (Caq). We analyzed spatial variability of F of CH4 and CO2, as well as Caq and k in 22 European lakes during late summer. F and k were ...
متن کاملResponse of Submerged Macrophyte Communities to External and Internal Restoration Measures in North Temperate Shallow Lakes
Submerged macrophytes play a key role in north temperate shallow lakes by stabilizing clear-water conditions. Eutrophication has resulted in macrophyte loss and shifts to turbid conditions in many lakes. Considerable efforts have been devoted to shallow lake restoration in many countries, but long-term success depends on a stable recovery of submerged macrophytes. However, recovery patterns var...
متن کاملResponse of fish communities in five north temperate lakes to exotic species and climate
Exotic species invasions and climatic variation that occurred in north central Wisconsin provided the opportunity to contrast influences of climate and invasive species in shaping fish community dynamics in five Wisconsin lakes from 1981 to 2001. Year (passage of time) was positively correlated (r . 0.9) with invasive species. Year, invasive species, and climatic variables were the principal de...
