The aim of this study was to estimate ecotoxicity of the sediments from the shallow, eutrophic dam reservoir—Sulejowski. Research was carried out using Phytotoxkit microbiotests, which measure inhibition of seeds germination and roots growth retardat...

Lake disappearing is a natural process which contemporarily escalates in consequence of human activity. It is estimated that within the area of Northern Poland from the last glaciation period (ca. 17,000 years ago) a half of lakes totally have disapp...

Rusałka Lake is a shallow, man-made, strongly eutrophicated reservoir, being a place of recreational activities for Poznan citizens. Restoration measures with the use of iron sulphate were conducted in years 2006–2007. Phosphorus and organic matter c...

This study examined the overgrowth in two eutrophic lakes during the period 1961–2008. In addition, for comparative studies, analyses of plant community structures in these lakes were performed to assess the effects of human pressure, such as water l...

The method of measuring transparency of water environments using the Secchi disc is still applied, despite a certain level of subjectivity of obtained results. At present, it should be used as a supplement to more reliable methods of measuring the th...

The research in Lake Głębokie was conducted in the years 2008–2010. Sampling from three selected sites was designed in such a way that vertical profiles of the characteristics of interest were obtained. Measurements were performed to determine the co...

The paper presents a method of assessment of the ecological state of lakes. It is based on methodology proposed by the Polish Limnological Society. According to this methodology, a set of indicators may be determined and may serve as a basis to make...

The study was undertaken to illustrate a wide range of application of a gradient thermal probe in thermal characterisation of water reservoirs on the example of Lake Morskie Oko whose water temperature has been measured since 2006. For analysis, the...

Lake Syczyńskie is a water body that represents a group of the smallest Łęczna-Włodawa Lakes. The lake is supplied with waters from the four streams, while the outlet from the lake is directed into the Świnka River. The residence time of water is ver...
