“…Different to the 'typical type 4 lakes, Staurosira species have been replaced by the desiccation tolerant Denticula tenuis, as also described by Cantonati et al (2009) and Hofmann et al (2020). WLF strongly affect phytoplankton structure and biomass (Adamczuk et al, 2020) as well as impede an intensive and species-rich development of macrophytes (Riis and Hawes, 2002;Bornette and Puijalon, 2011). Primarily, fast-growing small species such as Potamogeton filiformis (PERS.)…”

“…High-flow events due to thaws and snowmelt are rather common in the temperate climatic zone in general [37]. Water level inter-annual fluctuations were found to be rather typical in the Łęczna-Włodawa Lake District and to be the result of both precipitation and river supply [38]. The similarity of the hydrographs in pairs-Rotcze and Sumin Lakes, as well as Uściwierz and Bikcze Lakes-might be related to their distance from the carbonate Garbatówka hummock.…”

Water exchange in lake basins is a very important process in regulating the health of the aquatic environment, e.g., by shaping algal blooms. Thus, knowledge of the process is also required to develop management strategies. The paper presents a dynamic of water renewal time in the Uściwierz chain of lakes, in which the natural hydrological connectivity of the catchment areas has been altered due to human impact. Calculations of water renewal were limited to the part of the lake basin corresponding to the active (dynamic) retention layer. A comparative analysis of the rate of potential water renewal, based on the structure difference index, was used as an indicator of the degree of anthropogenic transformation of water distribution in the lake catchments. The smallest differences in the structure of the water renewal rate between the neighboring lakes in the chain system were observed in the cold period, and the largest differences were observed in the warm period. The results showed that the shorter the timescale (5-day period), the higher the similarity in the structure of the water renewal rate between the lakes. Very large differences between the structure of the potential water renewal rate in Lakes Uściwierz and Bikcze indicated a significant transformation of the water cycle down the lake chain. The water renewal rate proved to be a good indicator of the degree of anthropogenic transformation in the catchments located in close proximity.

“…Zooplankton is a key component of aquatic ecosystems. Its abundance and functioning are linked with numerous environmental factors, including hydrological and hydrochemical conditions, food resources, predation, and macrophyte cover [27][28][29][30][31]. Zooplankton responses to changes in environmental conditions can identify both functional disruptions and the regeneration of aquatic ecosystems.…”

The objective of this study was to analyze variations in the planktonic rotifer community in a lake subjected to hypolimnetic withdrawal. The present study is also the first attempt to estimate the effects of changes in hypolimnion water withdrawal rates on the zooplankton community. The lake is located in northeastern Poland. Zooplankton were sampled in 1986, 2004 and 2013. Standard protocols of zooplankton sampling and elaboration were applied. Rotifer abundance, wet biomass, community structure, and species diversity were studied at different intensities of hypolimnetic water withdrawal. Trophic state indices based on rotifer abundance and species structure were used to evaluate changes in the trophic state of the lake. Our results showed increased planktonic rotifer species diversity over a period of years, which was a positive outcome of the restoration measures. Lower hypolimnetic withdrawal rates seemed to favor the development of a diverse rotifer community. Conversely, qualitative changes in zooplankton structure and a zooplankton-based assessment of the lake trophic state indicated that water eutrophication was progressing. Despite modifications to the operation of the pipeline, no significant differences in rotifer abundance or biomass were detected between the sites in each year or among years at each site.
