Determination of Correlationship between Hydrological Residence Time and Phytoplankton Dynamics in Lake Kinneret, Israel BP2436 | Chapter 2 | Recent Research Advances in Biology Vol. 12

 The goal of this work is to try to link phytoplankton dynamics to hydrological features, and to use the nutrient as a speculative instrument to do so. Water Residence Time is the hydrological trait's chosen parameter, which is evidently integrated throughout the full water balancing frame. The dynamics of phytoplankton (Peridinium, Cyanophyta, Chlorophyta, and Diatoms) in Lake Kinneret were compared to hydrological factors throughout time. The algal biomass distribution was shown to be associated with hydrological characteristics. As a result, Residence Time, the best representor of the hydrological feature, is suggested as a critical parameter governing algal dynamics.

Study on the Ecological Outcome of Climate Change in Lake Kinneret, Israel: An Approach towards Thermal Pollution | Chapter 9 | Modern Advances in Geography, Environment and Earth Sciences Vol. 5

 The goal of this research is to determine the effects of thermal fluctuations on water quality. Pollution-related water quality degradation includes a number of factors, including nutrient input loads, fishery management, hydrological budget, toxicity, watershed deforestation, soil exposure, and exotic invaders. Thermal pollution is usually thought of as the result of power plant or nuclear power plant effluent, or as the result of a severe thermal shock. The long-term impact of global warming consideration has not been thoroughly investigated. The influence of climate change (warming and precipitation loss) on the Lake Kinneret ecology over time (1969-2001) is discussed. Temperatures of water and air, as well as heat capacity and thermal conductivity of water, are investigated in conjunction with less precipitation and a drop in lake water level. The temperature of surface water increased with WL reduction and reduced in deep layers during high WL, according to the findings. This study demonstrates that even slight thermal changes can signify ecological change. For a lake under water inflow reduction followed by WL and volume drop, the single thermal measure of degrees may be insignificant. It is advised that future management design be implemented.
