Introduction to Chinese Lake

This, in turn, results in considerable losses of nutrients, causing water pollution and harmful algal blooms in Chinese lakes, rivers and seas.

Chinese lakes, including ponds and reservoirs, are increasingly threatened by algal blooms.

The levels of TP in Huangbai River wathershed were remarkably higher than those in most Chinese lakes, reservoirs, and river.

Here, the reported n-alkyl lipid distributions of aquatic plants in globally studied lakes, together with newly obtained aquatic plant n-alkyl lipid data in Chinese lakes (Yunnan and Inner Mongolia), are used to understand their distribution characteristics.

Despite the unprecedented expansion of pen culture areas in Chinese lakes due to the increasing demands on fishery products, little is known about the potential impacts of pen culture on fish communities.

The Chinese swamp shrimp Neocaridina denticulata sinensis Kemp (Decapoda, Atyidae) is a common omnivore in Chinese lakes, where its presence may impact both periphyton and phytoplankton, with previously unstudied consequences for submerged macrophytes.

), were analyzed based on the 76 lake-level records documented in the second version of Chinese Lake Status Data Base (CLSDB 2).

In this study we reconstructed historical changes of geochemistry, nutrition, primary production, ecology, and pollution in an alpine lake (Gonghai) in central North China, and revealed coherent changes and drivers in relatively remote Chinese lakes by compiling other records.

In this study, DAX-8 and XAD-4 resins were used to investigate the relationship between hydrophobic and hydrophilic organic matters and their contributions to chemical oxygen demand in three Chinese lakes and in treated sewage.

It was found that current publications on POPs in Chinese lakes are mainly related to lakes in the developed eastern plain area, with only a few studies concerning the less-developed Qinghai-Tibet Plateau area.

) Hara, an important submerged macrophyte in Chinese lakes and rivers.

We excluded the impacts of anthropogenic emissions and eutrophication from that of climate change, and for the first time found that not only the rising surface air temperature but also the declining wind speed and the reducing days with precipitation had weakened the ability of Chinese lakes to bury 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs) by 69.

Literature reported that carbon dioxide emission from Chinese lakes falls in the range of 0.

In Chinese Lake Taihu, the algal quantity was significantly larger in summer than late spring (p < 0.

The diversity and vertical changes of Daphnia ephippia in the 30-cm sedimentary layer (equivalent to about 90 years) were investigated in a subtropical Chinese lake, Lake Chaohu.
