Limnological surveys show that fossil pigment concentration is an accurate predictor of algal
production. However, experimental and mass flux studies indicate that> 90% of pigment is …

For the past several decades scientists have been examining the nature of sedimentary
chlorophylls and carotenoids from freshwater lakes for their value in paleoecology and …

For effective lakes' management, high-frequent water quality data on a synoptic scale are
essential. The aim of this study is to test the suitability of the latest generation of satellite …

1 The factors that control the concentrations of pigments in lake sediments are examined
using data from (i) transects across lake basins,(ii) surface samples from logographic and …

The lakes of the European perialpine region constitute a large water reservoir, which is
threatened by the anthropogenic pressure altering water quality. The Water Framework …

L'ancienneté de pigments fossiles dans des sédiments déposés en couches annuelles a été
étalonnée au moyen de données contemporaines sur le phytoplancton (1970–1989) du lac …

Chlorophytes and cyanobacteria are among the most typical algal groups, contributing to the
aesthetic appearance and quality of the epilimnetic waters of the deep (251–410 m) and …

Fourteen polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were measured in surface waters and
precipitation inputs to Lake Maggiore, a subalpine lake in Northern Italy, from July 2003 to …

Reversed‐phase high pressure liquid chromatography was used to quantify carotenoid and
Chl degradation resulting from bacterial and microfaunal action during aphotic, hypolimnetic …

Lake Maggiore has reached a stable oligotrophic status after a recovery process from
mesotrophy that began in the early 1980s. However, the most recent phytoplankton and …
