This study was aimed at recognizing the levels of arsenic, antimony and selenium concentrations in different zones of the lake ecosystem. Total content as well as inorganic species of the studied metalloids were considered. Shallow Lake Jaroslawieckie (Wielkopolski National Park) was chosen for the study reported. Water samples were collected in different macrophyte communities of the phytolittoral and in the middle of the lake in early spring and mid-summer 2002. Total concentrations of all studied metalloids in samples collected in summer were lower than in those collected in spring but not all studied mineral species of As, Sb and Se followed the same pattern of changes. Despite seasonal changeability the lack of significant spatial differentiation in the concentrations of the elements studied at the peak of the vegetation season, in particular no differences in their concentrations between the sites in the bulk water in the middle of the lake and the sites in the plant communities was stated. This finding might testify to the fact that the effect of vegetation on the concentration of the elements studied is limited. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A comparative analysis of three regional groups of phytocoenoses dominated by Phragmites australis was undertaken in order to find if they reveal any interregional differentiation in the habitat (water and substratum) conditions and if the differences are followed by floristic composition. A group of 60 phytocoenoses studied in mesotrophic and (mostly) eutrophic lakes of midwestern Poland were compared to two groups investigated in moderately nutrient-rich lakes of northeastern Poland (32 phytocoenoses) and nutrient-poor lakes of northern Poland (20 phytocoenoses). Statistical analyses revealed significant habitat differences. Although the groups of phytocoenoses were studied in different regions and different types of water bodies, they occupied habitats poor in bioavailable forms of nutrients in water and organic matter content and sodium in the substratum, which is inconsistent with the general opinion concerning the reed community as indicative for the high trophy level of lakes. Floristic differences among the studied groups of phytocoenoses are not significant in phytocoenotic terms and relate more to the type of lakes than to established habitat differences. This might suggest that the habitat-forming power of Phragmites australis is the main factor to influence habitat properties. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this study was to characterize the spatial and temporal variability of total organic carbon concentrations in a shallow, eutrophic lake (Lake Jaroslawieckie,the Wielkopolski National Park, mid-western Poland) against the background of lake habitat heterogeneity. The interrelations between TOC and chlorophyll a in different studied sites (in macrophyte communities as well as in open water sections) were also taken into account. In November 2000, March, May, June and July 2001, water samples were collected in two transects along and across the lake traversing macrophyte communities of the phytolittoral zonation (7 sites) and reaching the open water zone (mid-lake, 3 sites) and, additionally, in a site close to a beach attracting local inhabitants and tourists. Statistical analyses revealed significant temporal differentiation and reverse patterns of changes of both TOC and chlorophyll a concentrations in the studied lake, whereas the spatial one was not significant. No correlations between both parameters were found. The results of cluster analyses suggest macrophyte vegetation and its seasonal changes in development as the main factor to influence TOC concentrations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study aimed at evaluate the ecological states of four protected,mid-forest lakes located in mid- western Poland.Two means of evaluation were used and compared:biodiversity (expressed by phytocoenotic diversity of macrohydrophyte vegetation)and habitat diversity (resulting from abiotic conditions and biota activity).The first method was based on the type and number of plant associations present in the studied lakes.The contribution of naturally and anthropogenically induced plant assemblages to lake vegetation was considered.The other method concerned morphometric,mictic and trophic features of the lakes and their water purity classes.The study results,especially a large number of plant assemblages and natural character of vegetation,evidenced a high degree of naturalness of all the reservoirs.However,results obtained with the use of both methods were to a certain degree inconsistent.With respect to the type of catchment and mid-forest location as well as still limited anthropopressure,the phytocoenotic diversity more clearly differentiated the reservoirs and more accurately reflected their ecological status than the habitat diversity whose use -especially as the only or main method -seems to be rather limited.

Insight into how environmental change determines the production and distribution of cyanobacterial toxins is necessary for risk assessment. Management guidelines currently focus on hepatotoxins (microcystins). Increasing attention is given to other classes, such as neurotoxins (e.g., anatoxin-a) and cytotoxins (e.g., cylindrospermopsin) due to their potency. Most studies examine the relationship between individual toxin variants and environmental factors, such as nutrients, temperature and light. In summer 2015, we collected samples across Europe to investigate the effect of nutrient and temperature gradients on the variability of toxin production at a continental scale. Direct and indirect effects of temperature were the main drivers of the spatial distribution in the toxins produced by the cyanobacterial community, the toxin concentrations and toxin quota. Generalized linear models showed that a Toxin Diversity Index (TDI) increased with latitude, while it decreased with water stability. Increases in TDI were explained through a significant increase in toxin variants such as MC-YR, anatoxin and cylindrospermopsin, accompanied by a decreasing presence of MC-LR. While global warming continues, the direct and indirect effects of increased lake temperatures will drive changes in the distribution of cyanobacterial toxins in Europe, potentially promoting selection of a few highly toxic species or strains. © 2018 by the authors.

Science & Technology - Other Topics - Abstract
Under ongoing climate change and increasing anthropogenic activity, which continuously challenge ecosystem resilience, an in-depth understanding of ecological processes is urgently needed. Lakes, as providers of numerous ecosystem services, face multiple stressors that threaten their functioning. Harmful cyanobacterial blooms are a persistent problem resulting from nutrient pollution and climate-change induced stressors, like poor transparency, increased water temperature and enhanced stratification. Consistency in data collection and analysis methods is necessary to achieve fully comparable datasets and for statistical validity, avoiding issues linked to disparate data sources. The European Multi Lake Survey (EMLS) in summer 2015 was an initiative among scientists from 27 countries to collect and analyse lake physical, chemical and biological variables in a fully standardized manner. This database includes in-situ lake variables along with nutrient, pigment and cyanotoxin data of 369 lakes in Europe, which were centrally analysed in dedicated laboratories. Publishing the EMLS methods and dataset might inspire similar initiatives to study across large geographic areas that will contribute to better understanding lake responses in a changing environment.
