Tracking Fish Introduction in a Mountain Lake over the Last 200 Years Using Chironomids, Diatoms, and Cladoceran Remains

Tracking Fish Introduction in a Mountain Lake over the Last 200 Years Using Chironomids, Diatoms, and Cladoceran Remains

We analysed a 24 cm long sediment sequence (past ~200 years) from an alpine lake (Tatra Mts., Slovakia) for chironomids, cladocerans, and diatoms to reconstruct the effects of a historically documented fish introduction. Our results indicate that fish introduction predated the age of the sequence, a...
