DOI: 10.1007/s10201-017-0530-2
Abstract: In aquatic ecosystems, tributaries play an important role in maintaining the populations and diversity of aquatic organisms throughout the drainage basin, but because of their small catchments, these ecosystems are often more susceptible to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10201-020-00646-8
Abstract: Daphnia, keystone herbivores in lakes, routinely produce immediately hatching eggs; additionally, they also produce resting eggs enveloped by an ephippial case, a thickened carapace that allows population survival under harsh environmental conditions. To examine differences… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10201-020-00649-5
Abstract: In Lake Biwa, picocyanobacteria blooms usually occur during the summer–autumn thermal stratification period. Intriguingly, a novel bloom was detected in winter 2015–2016, in which picocyanobacterial cell density increased by one order of magnitude despite lower… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10201-021-00653-3
Abstract: Vertical circulation reaches the bottom of the deepest (> 90 m) part of the northern basin of Lake Biwa, a warm monomictic lake, during winter (January to March) every year. In winter 2019, we found non-circulated water… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/20442041.2019.1671766
Abstract: ABSTRACT Egg dormancy is a key life history strategy in copepods to temporarily escape catastrophic or repetitive detrimental events and ensure permanent colonization. In Lake Biwa, although the copepod Eodiaptomus japonicus dominates the zooplankton community… read more here.

NUMERICAL SIMULATION FOR SEASONAL AND INTER-ANNUAL CHANGE OF DISSOLVED OXYGEN IN LAKE BIWA, JAPAN
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "International Journal of Geomate"
DOI: 10.21660/2020.66.9366
Abstract: The dynamics of dissolved oxygen in lake is a fundamental issue of comprehending the water environmental habitats of aquatic organisms. In recent years, the decrease in dissolved oxygen has been observed at the bottom of… read more here.
