Lakes in the era of global change: moving beyond single‐lake thinking in maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services
The Anthropocene presents formidable threats to freshwater ecosystems. Lakes are
especially vulnerable and important at the same time. They cover only a small area …

Biomanipulation as a restoration tool to combat eutrophication: recent advances and future challenges
Eutrophication resulting from high nutrient loading has been the paramount environmental
problem for lakes world-wide for the past four decades. Efforts are being made in many parts …

Production of EPA and DHA in aquatic ecosystems and their transfer to the land
Most omnivorous animals, including humans, have to some degree relied on physiologically
important polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and …

An integrated ecological floating-bed employing plant, freshwater clam and biofilm carrier for purification of eutrophic water
XN Li, HL Song, W Li, XW Lu, O Nishimura - Ecological engineering, 2010 - Elsevier
Planted floating-beds can be used for treating eutrophic water in a simple and cost-effective
manner, the performance of which is, however, unavoidably restricted by the growth rate and …

Major shortfalls impairing knowledge and conservation of freshwater molluscs
Molluscs are among the most diverse and widespread animal groups in freshwater habitats.
Unfortunately, like most freshwater taxa, they are decreasing dramatically and are now …

Successful restoration of a tropical shallow eutrophic lake: strong bottom-up but weak top-down effects recorded
Fish manipulation has been used to restore lakes in the temperate zone. Often strong short-
term cascading effects have been obtained, but the long term-perspectives are less clear …

Restoring macrophyte diversity in shallow temperate lakes: biotic versus abiotic constraints
Although many lake restoration projects have led to decreased nutrient loads and increased
water transparency, the establishment or expansion of macrophytes does not immediately …

Restoring shallow lakes impaired by eutrophication: Approaches, outcomes, and challenges
Shallow lake ecosystems are widely impaired by eutrophication. Lake restoration projects
frequently fail or are only partially successful, reflecting that environmental managers face …
