Zooplankton of Bohemian Forest lakes as indicator of recovery from acidity
Kohout, Leoš ; Fott, Jan (advisor) ; Macháček, Jiří (referee) ; Bitušík, Peter (referee)
CONCLUSIONS In my Ph.D. thesisthe ťollowingitems arediscussed It is hypothesisedthat Al govems the P availability in the acidified lakes, as well as shapesthe foodweb structure. Substantialportion of the plankton biomass in the Bohemian Forest lakes is createdby hetelotrophic fi|amentswhen filtering cladocerans aÍenot present (theyareextinctor occuÍseasonal1y). After ťrrstsigns in the nineties further evidence for the ongoing biological recovery was collected. Nevertheless, the lakes are still stongly or partially influenced by acidification and standardfood web relationshipshave not been restored. The significant hysteresisof biological recovery behind the reversal of lake chemistryin theBohemianForest and elsewherecould have severalreasons: - Isolationofremote headwaterlakes makestheprocessofzooplankton re- colonizationstochastic,theprobability being atleastfor somecnrstacean specieslow.
