A Review On The Control Of Eutrophication In Deep And Shallow Lakes, Meryem Bekli̇oğlu
A Review On The Control Of Eutrophication In Deep And Shallow Lakes, Meryem Bekli̇oğlu
Turkish Journal of Zoology
There has been a much debate about the relative importance of the determination of phytoplankton crops by nutrients (bottom-up control) or by zooplankton grazing (top-down control). Wide acceptance of the importance of nutrient concentrations in water quality deterioration has brought about external nutrient control by which eutrophication is, to some extent, reversible, and which has been proved its effectiveness mostly in deep lakes. In shallow lakes its effectiveness has not been as pronounced, owing to internal nutrient loading. Because the non-linearity of responses of biological systems is much more accentuated in small and shallow lakes. The use of profound effects …

Diurnal Variation Of Water Chemistry Andzooplankton In Little Mere, Cheshire, Uk, In 1993 And 1994, Meryem Bekli̇oğlu, Brian Moss
Turkish Journal of Zoology
In Little Mere, diurnal sampling of the zooplankton at three different habitats in 1993 provided little evidence to support the data of Timms and Moss (10) that cladocerans move out from refugia at night to graze in open water. The floating-leaved water lily, appeared to be more efficient at providing refuge to D. hyalina in the presence of high planktivore fish predation than the submerged plant beds and the open water. This might be due to unfavourable physical and chemical environmental conditions associated with the water lily bed for fish feeding, a possibility supported by the findings of very low …
