Emerging global threats, such as biological invasions, climate change, land use intensification, and water depletion, endanger the sustainable future of lakes and reservoirs. To deal with these threats, a multidimensional view on the protection and exploitation of lakes and reservoirs is needed. The holistic approach needs to contain not just the development of economy and society but also take into account the negative impacts of this growth on the environment, from that, the balance between the three dimensions can be sustained to reach a sustainable future. As such, this paper provides a comprehensive review on future opportunities and challenges for the sustainable development of lakes and reservoirs via a critical analysis on their contribution to individual and subsets of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Currently, lakes and reservoirs are key freshwater resources. They play crucial roles in human societies for drinking water provision, food production (via fisheries, aquaculture, and the irrigation of agricultural lands), recreation, energy provision (via hydropower dams), wastewater treatment, and flood and drought control. Because of the (mostly) recent intensive exploitations, many lakes and reservoirs are severely deteriorated. In recent years, physical (habitat) degradation has become very important while eutrophication remains the main issue for many lakes and ponds worldwide. Besides constant threats from anthropogenic activities, such as urbanization, industry, aquaculture, and watercourse alterations, climate change and emerging contaminants, such as microplastics and antimicrobial resistance, can generate a global problem for the sustainability of lakes and reservoirs. In relation to the SDGs, the actions for achieving the sustainability of lakes and reservoirs have positive links with the SDGs related to environmental dimensions (Goals 6, 13, 14, and 15) as they are mutually reinforcing each other. On the other hand, these actions have direct potential conflicts with the SDGs related to social and economic dimensions (Goals 1, 2, 3 and 8). From these interlinkages, we propose 22 indicators that can be used by decision makers for monitoring and assessing the sustainable development of lakes and reservoirs.

“…During the reconnaissance survey the presence of a yellowgreen film with an unpleasant smell and the presence of dead fish were noted. During the summer months, the lakes are strongly eutrophic [2]. Their biological rehabilitation is possible with the involvement of Chlorella vulgaris, which is accompanied by the prevention of water "blooming" (including the suppression of the growth of blue-green algae) [9].…”

“…The Lake Svyatoe has exceptional historical and balneological significance. The lake is located on the eastern outskirts of the Kosino-Ukhtomsky district of Moscow with an area of 0.08 km 2 , an average depth of 3 m and a maximum depth of 5.1 m. The lake is of round shape with a sphagnum bog on all sides. The chemical properties of the water of the Svyatoe Lake differ significantly from the water of other Kosinskies Lakes, i.e.…”

The Kosinskie Lakes are the only natural reservoirs of glacial origin on the territory of Moscow that are part of the natural and historical Kosinski park. Moreover, they are a natural landmark. Therefore, they need to be studied thoroughly and attentively. The ecological situation of the area is quite controversial. The lake drainage area suffers a great anthropogenic load. According to the calculation results of the Mayer index in 2018, the situation has worsened compared to 2017. There is a decrease in biodiversity of hydrobionts of the Kosinskie Lakes, as well as a decrease in the number of types of indicators used in the calculation of the Mayer index. The Lakes Beloe, Svyatoe and Chernoe refer to polysaprobic water bodies. The massive development of saprotrophic organisms is most likely caused by sharply increased eutrophication of the Kosinskie Lakes as they now locate on the territory of Moscow. Besides, the area nearby the Kosinskie Lakes is extensively used for mass

Despite covering a small portion of the earth's surface, lakes and reservoirs offer enormous benefits to human society, environmental well-being, and economic welfare. Previous studies have provided insights into specific subjects, yet integrated perspectives on the development of the two waterbodies are missing. To this end, we conducted a bibliometric analysis as a systematic data gathering to perform a large-scale overview and assess global trends of their scientific publications. Moreover, a second goal is to differentiate their research hotspots and current challenges given the different nature of their origin and functionality. 147,811 publications from 1955 to 2019 were retrieved from the database of the Science Citation Index Expanded, and then, divided into four research lines, (1) design and operation; (2) environment and ecology; (3) sanitation and human health; (4) socioeconomics. Bibliometric indicators showed that the number of publications sustained a rapid growth, from 100 during the 1950s to around 7800 publications per year during the past few years. The United States and EU 28 have long been world leaders in lake and reservoir research yet China has tremendously boosted its publications within the past 20 years, advancing this nation to the new world leader in both categories in 2019. Taking a closer look at research hotspots, design and operation have been the main topics for reservoir research while environment and ecology topics are the hotspots in lakes-related studies. This reflected the intensive human interventions in reservoirs, whose major purposes are to supply hydropower energy, irrigation, water storage, and aquaculture. Conversely, the impacts of eutrophication, heavy metals, and climate change have become more severe with the increase of species extinction and biodiversity loss, leading to urgent needs for lake restoration. Both freshwater bodies show comparable attention on their roles in socioeconomics while much higher concerns about sanitation and human health have been paid in reservoirs compared to its counterpart. Clear obtained distinctions in the hotspots and challenges of lake and reservoir research can contribute to better decision support systems of the two waterbodies.
