Combined Earth observations reveal the sequence of conditions leading to a large algal bloom in Lake Geneva

Damien Bouffard, Rafael Sebastian Reiss, Abolfazl Irani Rahaghi, Oscar Rodrigo Sepúlveda Steiner, Marco Toffolon, Frédéric Charles Soulignac

Freshwater algae exhibit complex dynamics, particularly in meso-oligotrophic lakes with sudden and dramatic increases in algal biomass following long periods of low background concentration. While the fundamental prerequisites for algal blooms, namely ligh ...

Waterborne Virus Transport and Risk Assessment in Lake Geneva Under Climate Change

Tamar Kohn, Chaojie Li

Climate changes influence lake hydrodynamics and radiation levels and thus may affect the fate and transport of waterborne pathogens in lakes. This study examines the impact of climate change on the fate, transport, and associated risks of four waterborne ...

Vertical distribution and seasonal dynamics of planktonic cyanobacteria communities in a water column of deep mesotrophic Lake Geneva

Tamar Kohn, Stéphane Joost, Oliver Michele Selmoni, Anna Carratala Ripolles, Charlotte Gisèle Weil, Natacha Tofield-Pasche, Hannah Elisa Chmiel, Annie Sandrine Guillaume, Coralie Chappelier

Background: Temperate subalpine lakes recovering from eutrophication in central Europe are experiencing harmful blooms due to the proliferation of Planktothrix rubescens, a potentially toxic cyanobacteria. To optimize the management of cyanobacteria blooms ...

Laterally unconfined neutral or negative buoyancy inflow into a quiescent ambient over sloping bottom

Haoran Shi

This work studies the nearshore hydrodynamics of a shallow turbulent flow entering a laterally unconfined quiescent ambient with a sloping bottom boundary. Examples of such flow are neutrally buoyant ebb tidal jets and hyperpycnal river plumes entering ope ...
