Water quality of lake Toya and of all the lake's in-and outflow rivers
The A. investigated the water quality (PH, temperature, conductivity and concentration of each metal ion) in order to assess the long-term influence of the eruption of Mt Usu and the changes on the standing water quality of Lake Toya. They concluded
that the general features of the lake water were considered not to have changed. - (SGA)
Genetic classification of lakes in the Czech Republic
Classification ; Czech Republic ; Lake ; Reservoir
The lakes are separate on Czech Republic area in natural and anthropogenic origin. The geomorphological viewpoint prevails by glacial, fluvial, karst, dammed-up by landslides, organogenous and anthropogenic lakes. As the anthropogenic lakes
Cladoceran and diatom stratigraphy of calcareous lake sediments from Kuusamo, NE Finland. Indications of Holocene lake-level changes
Diatom ; Finland ; Holocene ; Lacustrine sediment ; Lake ; Lake level ; Palaeogeography ; Palynology ; Pollen diagram ; Stratigraphy
Cores of Holocene calcareous sediments (marls) from 2 small lakes (Putaanlampi and Ylimmäinen Kuivajärvi) in Kuusamo, NE Finland, were analysed for pollen, Cladocera, and diatoms, to investigate lake-level changes.
Imja glacier lake has rapidly expanded in area as glacial ice on the east side has melted. If this melt rate continues, collapse of a terminal moraine could cause a devastating outburst flood. AA recommend immediate action to lower the lake level
The Mladotice Lake, western Czechia: the unique genesis and evolution of the lake basin
Chronostratigraphy ; Czech Republic ; Heavy rain ; Lacustrine sediment ; Lake ; Landslide ; Stratigraphy
The Mladotice Lake is a lake of unique genetic type in Czechia. In May 1872 a landslide as a result an extreme rainfall event occurred in western Czechia, blocking the Mladotický stream valley and creating the Mladotice Lake. Our analysis
Lake Michigan beach-ridge and dune development, lake level, and variability in regional water balance
Aerial photography ; C 14 dating ; Dune ; Holocene ; Lake ; Lake level ; Michigan ; Palaeoclimatology ; Quaternary ; United States of America ; Water balance
This paper reports the results of AMS radiocarbon dates of plant macrofossils associated with dune formation and growth, determines the historical relationships among beach-ridge formation, lake-level fluctuation, and regional climatic variation
, and finally provides an interpretation of lake-level and regional climate history based on dune morphology and the radiocarbon chronology of ridge formation.
Highest pluvial-lake shorelines and Pleistocene climate of the Western Great Basin
Climatic variation ; Drainage network ; Lake ; Lake level ; Nevada ; Palaeo-environment ; Pleistocene ; Tectonics ; United States of America
Shoreline altitudes of several pluvial lakes in the western Great Basin of North America record successively smaller lakes from the early to the late Pleistocene. This decrease in lake size indicates a long-term drying trend in the regional climate
that is not seen in global marine oxygen-isotope records. The previously unknown lake levels also reflect significant changes in tectonics, and (or) drainage-basin configurations, and could have facilitated migration of aquatic species in the Great Basin.
Simulating the Holocene lake-level record of Lake Bysjön, southern Sweden
C 14 dating ; Evapotranspiration ; Holocene ; Lake ; Lake level ; Model ; Palynology ; Precipitation ; Rill wash ; Sweden
This paper investigates whether it is possible to reproduce the observed lake-level changes at Bysjön through the Holocene by combining the effects of precipitation changes and known changes in radiation and temperature regimes, and whether
this results in more plausible estimates of changes in Holocene precipitation. These investigations are carried out using a physically based lake-catchment model, driven by known changes in radiation and temperature regimes and by systematic changes
This paper deals with the geochemistry of the lakes and groundwater in the context of Holocene hydrological and climatic changes. The AA. firstly aim to establish comprehensive data sets of the ion chemistries of the waters contained in these lakes
on the basis of chemical analysis of water samples. Secondly, they study the recharge mechanisms of these lakes by comparing the lake water with the groundwater. Thirdly, they focus on analyzing the evidences of the Holocene climatic changes, in particular
Lake-bottom thermal regimes, Western Arctic Coast, Canada
Arctic Region ; Canada ; Cold area ; Comparative study ; Delta ; Lake ; Northwest Territories ; Permafrost ; Taiga ; Temperature ; Thermal regime ; Tundra
The aim of this paper is to report upon the interannual variation in lake-bottom temperatures in several tundra lakes on Richards Island, and to compare these lake-bottom temperatures with conditions in a lake south of tree line, alongside
the Dempster Highway near Inuvik, Northwest territories. The paper then considers the sensitivity of equilibrium talik geometry to variations in lake-bottom temperature.
Geomorphology applied to flooding problems of closed-basin lakes...specifically Great Salt Lake, Utah
Climatic variation ; Earthquake ; Human impact ; Inundation ; Lake ; Lake level ; Natural hazards ; Regional planning ; United States ; Utah ; Wind
This paper reports on how geomorphic evidence has contributed to an understanding and definition of flooding hazards associated with closed-basin lakes in the Great Basin of the western United States and specifically with the largest of these lakes
, Utah's Great Salt Lake. The understanding of past lake fluctuations based on geomorphic and historic evidence and the knowledge of effects of wind and earthquakes on lakes provide sufficient information to be used in estimating flooding risks associated

Measurement, correlation, and mapping of glacial Lake Algonquin shorelines in northern Michigan
Cartography ; Correlation ; Global Positioning System ; Isostasy ; Lake ; Lake level ; Michigan ; Proglacial lake ; Quaternary ; Shoreline ; United States of America
The aim of this article is to produce accurate lake-level curves for Main Lake Algonquin and several post-Main lakes, evaluate/correlate the post-Main lakes in light of new data on shoreline elevations, and accurately map the areas inundated
by the various lake levels. The AA. use differential global positioning system (DGPS) technology to measure elevations of unquestionable Algonquin shorelines at wave-cut bluffs. They then correlate their shoreline data to previous estimates of post-Main Algonquin
features in an attempt to clarify the sequence of post-Algonquin lakes.
