报告内容简介: In my presentation, I will talk about the impact of various physical processes on ecology and water quality of Lake Kinneret (the Sea of Galilee, Israel). I will show the role of lake stratification and external forcing in formation of biogeochemical processes, their spatial heterogeneity, and seasonality. I will discuss the methodological approaches required for investigations of hydro-ecological processes and consider the role of physical factors in formation of the winter-spring bloom of toxic cyanobacterium Microcystis. Further, I will talk about the impact of manipulations in the watershed area on the Lake Kinneret ecosystem and show why the enlargement in water level fluctuation increases methane (greenhouse gas) emission from the lake into the atmosphere.
