The Functioning of a Water Body Within a Fluvio-Lacustrine System as an Effect of Excessive Nitrogen Loading—The Case of Lake Symsar and its Drainage Area (Northeastern Poland)

Abstract: Generally, in water ecosystems, it is assumed that rivers play a transport role. In turn, lakes have accumulation properties. However, in fluvio-lacustrine systems, each water body located on a river track can disrupt naturally occurring processes. One such process is the nitrogen cycle. An analysis of the nitrogen cycle, at both the global and local levels, is of extreme significance in view of the progressive degradation of aquatic ecosystems. In this study, we attempted to show that the specific properties … Show more

“…Weather conditions affect the heating, cooling, mixing and circulation of lake waters [37]. They do not directly influence the lake water pollution, but they indirectly influence the hydrological conditions in river-lake systems [29,38] by regulating water levels in river beds and lakes, influencing dilution and accumulation of nutrients in waters and influencing the intensity of water flow in river beds. For example, lower water abundance in individual hydrological years, resulting from lower precipitation sums, contributed to the occurrence of periodic water depletion in some watercourses in the catchment area of the river-lake system under study, especially in summer, during intensive plant vegetation and increased water demand [29].…”

“…The specific properties of river-lake ecosystems and their retention capacity contribute to the formation of their functions in river-lake systems. In addition to the bottom material, the river flowing through the reservoir may also carry nutrients from the river basin into the reservoir [29,38].…”
