Sustainable management of lakes requires us to overcome ecological, economic, and social
challenges. These challenges can be addressed by focusing on achieving ecological …

The aim of this paper was to summarize the current knowledge on how physical methods
can reduce or control internal P release from sediments in lakes and reservoirs. Particular …

It is well known that sediment internal loading can worsen lake water quality for many years
even if effective measures have been taken to control external loading. In this study, a 12 …

Aluminum salts are widely used to immobilize phosphorus (P) in lakes suffering from internal
loading. However, longevity of treatments varies among lakes; some lakes eutrophy faster …

Hydrodynamics play an important role in sediment nutrient dynamics in large shallow
eutrophic lakes. In this study, the spatial patterns of sediment nitrogen and phosphorus in …

This study investigated the relationships between physical, limnological and climatic drivers
with the internal total phosphorus (TP) loading produced over the dry period in 30 water …

After significant reductions in external phosphorus (P) loads, and subsequent water quality
improvements in the early 1980s, the water quality of Lake Erie has declined considerably …

Shallow lake ecosystems are widely impaired by eutrophication. Lake restoration projects
frequently fail or are only partially successful, reflecting that environmental managers face …

Nutrient accumulation in man-made reservoirs has been documented worldwide. Therefore,
quantifying phosphorus loading and understanding its temporal dynamics in reservoirs is …

In shallow lakes, eutrophication leads to a shift of the macrophyte-dominated clear state
towards an algae-dominated turbid state. Phosphorus (P) is a crucial element during this …
