Produktbeschreibung

Lakes are vital freshwater reservoirs, holding over 90% of the Earth's unfrozen surface freshwater. Lake Facts explores these essential bodies of water, detailing their formation, ecological significance, and the threats they face. Understanding lake ecosystems is crucial, as they serve as indicators of environmental health and play a key role in global climate regulation.

For instance, lakes can originate from glacial activity, tectonic shifts, or volcanic events, each process leaving a unique geological fingerprint. The book begins with an introduction to limnology, setting the stage for understanding lake formation and characteristics. It progresses into detailed examinations of lake ecosystems, including nutrient cycling, the roles of plankton, aquatic plants, and fish, and the impact of invasive species.

It addresses challenges such as pollution and climate change, while emphasizing the need for informed stewardship and sustainable water resource management. Lakes are not static features but dynamic ecosystems reflecting planetary health. The book highlights the complex interactions between lakes and their surrounding environments, as well as the social and economic implications of lake degradation.
