A national-scale trophic state analysis to prioritize lakes for restoration in Aotearoa New Zealand Open
Pressure on lakes in Aotearoa New Zealand is increasing because of elevated catchment nutrient loads, establishment of non-native species, and climate change. Current government legislation requires that pressures are managed to avoid eutr…

A taxonomy-free diatom eDNA-based technique for assessing lake trophic level using lake sediments Open
Anthropogenic eutrophication is one of the most pressing issues facing lakes globally. Our ability to manage lake eutrophication is hampered by the limited spatial and temporal extents of monitoring records, stemming from the time-consumin…

Oxygen Nanobubbles for Lake Restoration—Where Are We at? A Review of a New-Generation Approach to Managing Lake Eutrophication Open
Nutrient enrichment of lakes from anthropogenic activities is a significant and increasing issue globally, impairing the health, biodiversity and service provisioning from lakes, with impacts on cultural, recreational, economic and aesthet…

Metagenomic insights to the functional potential of sediment microbial communities in freshwater lakes Open
Molecular-based techniques offer considerable potential to provide new insights into the impact of anthropogenic stressors on lake ecosystems. Microbial communities are involved in many geochemical cycling processes in lakes and a greater …

The Role of Environmental Processes and Geographic Distance in Regulating Local and Regionally Abundant and Rare Bacterioplankton in Lakes Open
Bacteria are vital components of lake systems, driving a variety of biogeochemical cycles and ecosystem services. Bacterial communities have been shown to have a skewed distribution with a few abundant species and a large number of rare sp…

Blue Waters, Green Bottoms: Benthic Filamentous Algal Blooms Are an Emerging Threat to Clear Lakes Worldwide Open
Nearshore (littoral) habitats of clear lakes with high water quality are increasingly experiencing unexplained proliferations of filamentous algae that grow on submerged surfaces. These filamentous algal blooms (FABs) are sometimes associa…
View article: Local factors drive bacterial and microeukaryotic community composition in lake surface sediment collected across an altitudinal gradient
Local factors drive bacterial and microeukaryotic community composition in lake surface sediment collected across an altitudinal gradient Open
Lake surface sediments are dominated by microorganisms that play significant roles in biogeochemical cycling within lakes. There is limited knowledge on the relative importance of local environmental factors and altitude on bacterial and m…
