Outstanding examples of predictive ecology are Vollenweider‘s models on the relationship between phosphorus load and water renewal time of lakes, and the resulting algal biomass. The needed few and easily accessible input parameters to very simple models provided a direct link from basic ecology to management, and today these models are key tools for managers worldwide to control lake eutrophication and algal blooms. The baseline of this success is the general relation between phosphorus concentration and phytoplankton biomass that is observed for most lakes. While these relationships are most frequently presented in log-log diagrams, the aquatic ecologist who replots these a linear scale may ask himself why, in spite of the overall correlation, there is still such a variability. It is possible to predict levels of algal biomass that may be synthesized at a given phosphorus load. Some lakes apparently offer optimal conditions for their phytoplankton communities, while others may support less than half the biomass at the same | 出版日期 | Book 1997 | 关键词 | Aquatische Ökologie; Bifurkation; Eutrophierung; Limnologie; Nahrungsketten; Phosphor; Plankton; Räuber-Beu | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-662-03418-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-08279-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-662-03418-7Series ISSN 0070-8356 Series E-ISSN 2196-971X | issn_series | 0070-8356 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 1997 |
