About the Book

Limnology is increasingly concerned with water supply and the relation of man to aquatic environments. Without the continued availability of pure water, all progress in technology and other fields of human life will be to no avail. The global problems concerning clear water are already extremely pressing. More limnology knowledge is needed to solve these problems. The responsibility of man to save water and to take more intensive care of the environment is raised in many of the papers, in this book. This emphasizes the necessary and unquestionable relevance of limnology to human society. Too often the abuse of water usage reflects the neglect of scientific results. Limnologists have a responsibility to ensure that administrators understand what is going on. The coverage of the book is wide, including papers on microbiology to engineering sciences. The biology of waters is handled at both species and ecosystem levels. The geographical distribution of topics ranges from the tropics to northern temperate areas. In fact, limnology is increasingly becoming a science which is, rightly, relevant to everyday life, not just an academic subject.

Table of Contents:
Trends in Finnish limnology during 1940-1989.- Clean water: a fading resource.- Uses, abuses and management of lakes and rivers.- Extracellular enzymes in a small polyhumic lake: origin, distribution and activities.- Significance of bacterial ectoenzymes in aquatic environments.- Kinetics of amino acids mineralization by a pond sediment bacterial community.- Microbial ecology of planktonic filamentous phototrophic bacteria in holomictic freshwater lakes.- Population dynamics of phototrophic bacteria in three basins of Lake Banyoles (Spain).- Estimating photosynthetically available radiation into open and ice-covered freshwater lakes from surface characteristics; a high transmittance case study.- Phosphorus transformations in the epilimnia of small humic forest lakes.- Differential luxury phosphate response of planktonic algae to phosphorus removal.- Temporal changes in biomass specific photosynthesis during the summer: regulation by environmental factors and the importance of phytoplankton succession.- Spatial changes of phytoplanktonic size spectra in Lake Biwa.- Phytoplankton and submerged macrophytes in the aquatic ecosystems of the Danube Delta during the last decade.- Phytoplankton and Zooplankton community structure after nutrient additions to the oligotrophic Lake Hecklan, Sweden.- Respiratory electron transport system (ETS) — activity of the plankton and sediment in Lake Balaton (Hungary).- Population dynamics of Bosmina longirostris (Crustacea: Cladocera) in Lake Kariba, Zimbabwe.- Plankton ecology in an ice-covered bay of Lake Michigan: utilization of a winter phytoplankton bloom by reproducing copepods.- The role of zoobenthos in energy flow in deep, oligotrophic Lake Thingvallavatn, Iceland.- Life history of Corophium curvispinum G.
