Coefficients in Taylor's law increase with the time scale of water clarity measurements in a global suite of lakes

Camille Roland Marie Minaudo, Hannah Elisa Chmiel

Identifying the scaling rules describing ecological patterns across time and space is a central challenge in ecology. Taylor's law of fluctuation scaling, which states that the variance of a population's size or density is proportional to a positive power ...

Near-bed stratification controls bottom hypoxia in ice-covered alpine lakes

Damien Bouffard, Camille Roland Marie Minaudo, Tomy Doda, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Hannah Elisa Chmiel, Janine Rüegg, Nicolas Thomas Georges Escoffier, Pascal Perolo

In ice-covered lakes, near-bottom oxygen concentration decreases for most of the wintertime, sometimes down to the point that bottom waters become hypoxic. Studies insofar have reached divergent conclusions on whether climate change limits or reinforces th ...

Alkalinity contributes at least a third of annual gross primary production in a deep stratified hardwater lake

Hannah Elisa Chmiel

In alkaline freshwater systems, the apparent absence of carbon limitation to gross primary production (GPP) at low CO2 concentrations suggests that bicarbonates can support GPP. However, the contribution of bicarbonates to GPP has never been quantified in ...

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 ...

Seasonal phytoplankton and geochemical shifts in the subsurface chlorophyll maximum layer of a dimictic ferruginous lake

Hannah Elisa Chmiel

Subsurface chlorophyll maxima layers (SCML) are ubiquitous features of stratified aquatic systems. Availability of the micronutrient iron is known to influence marine SCML, but iron has not been explored in detail as a factor in the development of freshwat ...

Primary and Net Ecosystem Production in a Large Lake Diagnosed From High-Resolution Oxygen Measurements

Alfred Johny Wüest, Camille Roland Marie Minaudo, Bieito Fernandez Castro, Hannah Elisa Chmiel, Shubham Krishna, Pascal Perolo

The rates of gross primary production (GPP), ecosystem respiration (R), and net ecosystem production (NEP) provide quantitative information about the cycling of carbon and energy in aquatic ecosystems. In lakes, metabolic rates are often diagnosed from die ...

Where does the river end? Drivers of spatiotemporal variability in CO2 concentration and flux in the inflow area of a large boreal lake

Natacha Tofield-Pasche, Hannah Elisa Chmiel

River inflow affects the spatiotemporal variability of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the water column of lakes and may locally influence CO2 gas exchange with the atmosphere. However, spatiotemporal CO2 variability at river inflow sites is often unknown leaving ...

Dissolved Organic Matter and Associated Trace Metal Dynamics from River to Lake, Under Ice-Covered and Ice-Free Conditions

Natacha Tofield-Pasche, Hannah Elisa Chmiel

The present study investigates the changes in dissolved organic matter (DOM) composition and its influences on trace metal dispersion from the Shuya River (SR) in the Petrozavodsk Bay of Lake Onega during ice covered and ice-free periods. Humic substances ...
