Experimental research conducted on bottom sediments from the eutrophic Lake Rusałka (Poznań, Poland) indicated that the phosphorus release process has a significant influence on the functioning of the ecosystem. Internal loading was very intense in the deepest part of the lake, where it reached up to 29.84 mg m^-2 d^-1 P under anaerobic conditions. This part of the lake, however, was insignificant...
Phosphorus release from bottom sediments studied in two zones of Lake Uzarzewskie differing in depth and water oxygenation displayed seasonal and spatial variability. The experiments indicated that the lake receives considerable internal loading, especially from the deeper, anaerobic, rarely-mixed part of the lake. Meanwhile, the shallow zone situated in the 0-3 m depth range, could be a sink for...
The aim of this study was to assess the ability of bottom sediments to release or accumulate phosphorus. Ex situ experiments with the use of undisturbed sediment cores were done in 11 lakes situated in the Cybina River valley (Wielkopolska, Poland). Phosphorus release was observed both in aerobic and anaerobic conditions, however greater values were noted in the latter ones. Maximum values reached...
Lake Rusałka is a shallow, artificial, strongly eutrophic reservoir. Thermal stratification is weak and comprises only about 8% of the bottom surface. In summer, the epilimnion is oversaturated with oxygen due to intensive phytoplankton growth (chlorophyll a up to 80.2 μg l^-1), while conditions in the hypolimnion are anaerobic. The high concentration of ammonium nitrogen and low N:P ratio stimulated...
The aim of the studies done in a shallow preliminary reservoir (western Poland) was to determine the intensity and seasonal variability of phosphorus release from bottom sediments. Ex situ studies were done using intact sediment cores taken in succeeding seasons at 3 research stations. The highest phosphorus loading was observed in spring (May and April), both in 2005 and 2006. The range of loading...
