Morphology and biology of Cyclops scutifer Sars, 1863 in high mountain lakes of East Siberia (including Lake Amut)

Data on zooplankton from 13 high-mountain lakes of East Siberia have shown that the Holarctic copepod Cyclops scutifer Sars,1863 dominates among crustaceans.In July,its abundance comprised 64%-98%of the total plankton fauna in the pelagial of these lakes,approximately 30%in the littoral zone and10%in small northern thermokarst lakes.Biometric measurements and morphological descriptions based on scanning microscope images are supplemented by the data on its geographic distribution and phenology.

Application of Sediment Traps in Global Change Research in Mountain Lakes

Representativity of biota in the biosphere also have similar significance in the lithosphere after their death. Recently, taphonomic representation of biota in the lithosphere has been widely used for minimizing the biases in palaeo-environmental reconstructions including global climate change. In September 2001, a sediment trap was installed at the central area of the Loch Coire Fionnaraich （LCFR）, a small, oligotrophic mountain loch in northwest Scotland for a taphonomic study of cladoceran zooplankton. The trap was emptied on a seasonal basis, where an average 0.14 g dry material was recovered in each season, January, May and August 2002 respectively. A sediment core was also taken from near the sediment trap location. The top 0.5 cm section, the ＇core＇ was used for a comparative study with the trap sediment samples. The planktonic Cladocera consisted of Bosmina coregoni and appeared to have excellent preservation in the trap assemblages. Moreover, some common littoral Cladocera such as Alonella excisa and Aloha guttata appear to be less well preserved in the fossil assemblages. Large littoral taxa such as Eurycercus lamellatus and Aloha quadrangularis were rare in the trap but relatively common and well preserved in the sediment-water interface. It is suggested that taphonomic processes play a dominant role on deposition of fossil remains of Cladocera and caution should be taken while inferring the past environmental changes whilst using fossil assemblages recovered from the lake centre as a representation of the entire cladoceran community in the lake.

Conditions of spatiotemporal variability of the thickness of the ice cover on lakes in the Tatra Mountains

This research aimed to identify the impact of local climatic and topographic conditions on the formation and development of the ice cover in highmountain lakes and the representativeness assessment of periodic point measurements of the ice cover thickness by taking into consideration the role of the avalanches on the icing of the lakes.Field works included measurement of the ice and snow cover thickness of seven lakes situated in the Tatra Mountains(UNESCO biosphere reserve)at the beginning and the end of the 2017/2018 winter season.In addition,morphometric,topographic and daily meteorological data of lakes from local IMGW(Polish Institute of Meteorology and Water Management)stations and satellite images were used.The obtained results enabled us to quantify the impact of the winter eolian snow accumulation on the variation in ice thickness.This variation was ranging from several centimetres up to about 2 meters and had a tendency to increase during the winter season.The thickest ice covers occurred in the most shaded places in the direct vicinity of rock walls.The obtained results confirm a dominating role of the snow cover in the variation of the ice thickness within individual lakes.

Interannual and Seasonal Changes in the Ice Cover of Glacial Lakes in the Snowy Mountains of Australia

Seasonal ice cover is uncommon on Australian lakes. In the Snowy Mountains, there are five natural, seasonally ice-covered lakes including Lake Cootapatamba, the highest lake in Australia. Blue Lake is the only one of the five lakes with sufficient volume to be relatively independent of short-term changes in ambient temperature, and therefore is the lake most likely to be of use in tracking long-term regional climate change. Ice forms on Blue Lake near the winter solstice and ice-breakup occurs from late September to November. Timing of breakup is related to spring temperature and, as such, mirrors the timing of general snow thaw in the mountains. The existence of historic photographs taken of the lake at about the time of ice breakup allows for the possibility of reconstructing a history of alpine climate and in 1905 ice breakup was probably as late as mid-December.

Compilation Mode for the Integrated Planning of Lake Scenic Areas——A Case Study of the Longhu Lake Scenic Area in the Taihang Mountains

In view of lake scenic areas with abundant tourist resources but less-developed economy,contradictions between the urgency of its tourist resource development and complexity of urban-rural planning compilation were analyzed,and also limitations summarized as insufficient time and fund.Statutory planning contents included in the integrated compilation system were elaborated,and compilation of the integrated planning for the Longhe Lake Scenic Area in the Taihang Mountains was taken for example to introduce planning concepts of the compilation technical system.Considering characteristics of the study area,"regionality" was stressed as the foundation of planning compilation,concise,convenient and practical planning compilation contents were advocated and further explained from the perspectives of compiling by layer and category.In view of this,it is necessary to apply integrated compilation mode under certain circumstances,so as to provide a new approach for the planning compilation of other regions in China and enhance economic and social development of local areas.

OROGENESIS-BASINOGENESIS IN THE LUSHAN MOUNTAIN-POYANG LAKE, NORTH JIANGXI PROVINCE,CHINA

Many scientists used to study orogenesis and basinogenesis separately, and thought that the Lushan Mountain-Poyang Lake, North Jiangxi province, only formed in the Quaternary. On the basis of analysis of the regional deep-tectonic setting and main geological characteristics, the orogenesis-basinogenesis in the Lushan Mountain-Poyang Lake as a whole was studied, and its congenital, parturient and postnatal conditions were mainly discussed. On the above basis, four stages of orogeneis -basinogenesis in the Lushan Mountain -Poyang Lake were recognized: the presinian basic, the Sinian-Early Permain dormant, the Late Permain-Early Tertiary embryonic and the Late Tertiary-Quaternary forming stage, and the kinematic-dynamic characteristics of orogenesis-basinogenesis at each stage were discussed.

1970−2021年阿尔金山国家级自然保护区湖泊面积变化研究

以阿尔金山国家级自然保护区内湖泊为研究对象,通过对大比例尺地形图和中高分辨率遥感影像的配准和目视解译,并结合保护区周边4个气象站1970−2021年气温、降水、蒸散量数据,系统分析了区内面积>1 km2湖泊的面积变化及其对气候因子的响应.结果表明:1)近51 a保护区的湖泊呈现扩张、稳定和萎缩3种变化趋势,但大部分湖泊处于扩张状态.其中:大型湖泊均呈扩张之势,并以20世纪90年代中期为节点,前期扩展缓慢,后期出现明显扩展增速;中型湖泊面积变化呈现扩张、稳定和萎缩3种趋势;小型湖泊面积变化呈现扩张和萎缩2种趋势;湖泊面积的变化趋势与湖泊自身的规模无关,只与其补给和支出平衡有关.2)沙子湖、小沙子湖是部分河段被沙埋的流经湖,多年湖面积变化较小,湖泊周围沙丘未出现大范围朝湖向移动.3)保护区湖泊的面积与气温和降水呈正相关,与蒸发量呈显著负相关,气温和降水对湖泊面积的影响大于蒸发.保护区内湖泊属降雨和冰川融水补给型湖泊,且冰川融水的补给量大于降水.研究结果有助于了解该地区气候变化控制下水资源演变过程,可作为进一步评估区域气候变化和湖泊变化的依据.

Abundance and spatial dynamics of bacterioplankton in the Seven Rila Lakes,Bulgaria

In the high mountain oligotrophic Seven Rila Lakes (2 095–2 535 m a.s.l.) bacterial abundance was recorded in July and September 2006. In July, bacterial abundance (average (3.32±2.5)×105 cell/ml) in the lakes correlated negatively with elevation, while in September (average (26.39±7.1)×105 cell/ml) this pattern was altered and the greatest abundance of bacteria occurred at the highest ((39.05±1.5)×105 cell/ml) and the lowest ((30.63±6.0)×105 cell/ml) elevated lakes. Regression analyses suggested that the principal factor controlling bacterial abundance, in both July and September, was inorganic nitrogen (NO3-N and NH4-N; R2=0.70, P<0.05). Other major regulating factors were temperature (R2=0.66, P<0.03) in July and filter-feeding zooplankton (R2=0.95, P<0.01) in September. All factors, except NO3-N, had a positive effect on bacterial abundance.

1848—2019年大兴安岭卧牛湖湖泊环境演变及其驱动因素

湖泊生态环境演变过程和驱动机制研究对湖区生态系统的恢复至关重要。本文针对东北近现代湖泊生态环境重建研究相对不足的现状,以阿尔山浅水湖泊——卧牛湖为研究对象,在210Pb和137Cs建立的精确年代基础上,通过沉积岩芯的正构烷烃、粒度、总有机碳(TOC)、总氮(TN)和碳氮比(C/N)等多指标分析,结合流域现代监测和历史资料,重建了1848—2019年来卧牛湖生态环境(包括藻类、水生植物等)的演化过程,并评价了多种环境压力对湖泊生态演变的影响。20世纪40年代之前,湖泊生态环境处于自然演化阶段,20世纪40年代之后,人类开始通过农业施肥和用水灌溉对湖泊环境产生影响,并在20世纪90年代显著加强,导致短链正构烷烃指示的藻类生物急剧上升。冗余分析和方差分解分析结果显示,在20世纪40—90年代,营养因子、气候因子和流域侵蚀共同作用影响湖泊生态环境演化;20世纪90年代以来,人类活动和营养因子成为湖泊生态环境变化的主控因子,人为干扰对湖泊环境影响显著加强,多种压力的胁迫作用导致了湖泊向富营养化状态的转变。
