Mountain lakes are affected by anthropogenic use and global change, which necessitates management strategies to ensure their conservation provision of ecosystem services (ES). However, research on ES mountain is scarce related stakeholder perspectives remain unexplored. This study identifies key explores how stakeholders perceive the importance these contributions human well-being. A mixed-methods approach based socio-cultural valuation methods was adopted consulting diverse from governmental, economic, research, public sectors in South Tyrol (Italy) Central European Alps. The results indicate that highest attributed maintaining habitats as well aesthetic value, followed surface water, outdoor recreation, representation & entertainment. Stakeholders' were multi-faceted covering benefits, senses place notions care stewardship, but also negative perceptions trade-offs cultural emerged. We discuss findings outlining implications for practice. Overall, this demonstrates potential participatory assessment approaches foster context-specific understanding presents a first step towards integrative lakes.

Freshwater is a chief natural resource used for various types of activities in our daily life i.e. drinking as well different developmental purposes.An increase pollution level leads to instability environment and harm both the physical systems living organisms dwelling ecosystem.Various harmful substances present polluted water bodies form insecticide, pesticides, heavy metals, mills waste, crude oil are frequently released into aquatic ecosystem.When large amount these pollutants any body, causes an acute effect by rapid highscale mortalities organisms.Minor levels pollutant discharge result accumulation contaminants body composition fish species.Water effects classified chronic effects, which suppress immune-response, reduction metabolism, gills, epithelial layer species.Some diseases caused include fin rot, tail gill disease, damage hepatic tissues, also ulceration.This chapter aims reviews impacts on health species their ecosystem.

Abstract Biofilms are matrix‐enclosed communities that represent the most dominant and active mode of microbial life on Earth. Because biofilms inherently more productive than any equivalent planktonic community, they great relevance to all environments inhabit. However, their existence importance still poorly known by general public, conservation practitioners environmental policymakers. Most micro‐organisms multicellular organisms (including humans, animals plants) occur in form true or biofilm‐like structures play vital roles development, physiology immunity. Conversely, some can have a negative effect host health. growing non‐biological surfaces essential components many terrestrial marine ecosystems: basis food webs ensure nutrient cycling bioremediation natural systems. promote persistence human pathogens, produce harmful toxins, foul corrode man‐made settings; which significant health economic implications. There is knowledge gap about epidemiology wildlife emerging infectious diseases, yet these pose major threat public health, biodiversity sustainability. The drivers global change affect biofilm structure functions. consequences for ecosystem are, however, understood.

Abstract Continental freshwater systems are particularly vulnerable to environmental variation. Climate change‐induced desertification and the anthropogenic exploitation of hydric resources result in progressive evaporation salinization inland water bodies many areas globe. However, how this process impacts microbial communities their activities biogeochemical cycles is poorly known. Here, we take a space‐for‐time substitution approach characterize prokaryotic eukaryotic two planktonic cell‐size fractions (0.2–5 μ m 5–30 m) from lakes diverse trophic levels sampled along salinity‐alkalinity gradient located Trans‐Mexican Volcanic Belt (TMVB). We applied 16S/18S rRNA gene metabarcoding strategy determine community composition 54 samples 12 different lakes, low‐salinity lake Zirahuén hypersaline residual ponds Rincón de Parangueo. Except for at both extremes salinity gradient, most trend bear actively forming microbialites, which harbor clearly distinct those plankton. Several were winter late spring crater Alchichica Atexcac across column. Physicochemical parameters related influential drivers structure whereas status, depth, or season less important. Our results suggest that climate change anthropogenic‐induced deficit could significantly affect communities, potentially altering ecosystem functioning.

Although anthropogenic activities affect the ecological conditions of mountain lakes worldwide, impacts on human wellbeing, in terms ecosystem services provided by lake ecosystems, remain unclear. This study identified potential pressures seven key small lakes. The Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response framework enabled conceptualization hypothetical multiple indicators used to quantify services. Results indicate that increasing temperatures influence almost all service indicators, impacting negatively water availability particular, but also exerting positive effects recreation. Changes use have mostly negative impacts, specifically related habitat and aesthetics. For such as trophic state, clarity, availability, riparian vegetation complexity, nitrate content, up six may interact. Overall, greatest can be expected habitat, water, aesthetic existence. To support targeted management strategies, two contrasting groups were distinguished, accounting for socio-ecological differences recreational agricultural use. Lakes low suitability (i.e., high and/or remote) are affected large-scale drivers climate change, whereas easily accessible) more often exerted changes local These findings suggest future research should emphasize interdisciplinary assessments bridging limnological parameters better connect global change benefits derived from information is useful mitigating or adapting change.

Mountain lakes are increasingly affected by global change pressures. While there is growing evidence of impacts on ecosystem functioning, few studies considered changes in services (ES). This study aimed (1) to examine the exposure small and natural mountain European Alps pressures (2) estimate potential six relevant ES considering future climate projections water use. For 2455 lakes, we mapped level pressures, including change, atmospheric nutrient deposition, anthropogenic activities (e.g., use). Our results indicate that more than half Alpine feature a considerable change. Hotspot analysis revealed spatial clusters with above-average (23.7% all lakes), mostly located central part Alps, while below-average prevailed south-western (19.3%) eastern parts (10.6%). 15 case quantified key ES. The revealed, particular, negative effects maintaining habitat populations as well aesthetic value, but contrastingly, also some positive for outdoor recreation, research education. findings suggest need comprehensive integration into current management policy frameworks ensure ecological integrity provision lakes. Interdisciplinary lake will be important overcome uncertainties related coupling limnological parameters indicators.
