Publication in Anthropocene – hypoxia and primary production in Masuria

Changes in oxygenation and lake productivity vary over time. One of the most important factors controlling these processes is land cover in the catchment area. The team, which includes Wojciech Tylmann, analyzed the impact of land-use changes and human activities on the mixing of lakes located in the Masurian and Suwałki regions. In an article published in Anthropocene, the authors used high-resolution data from sediment analyses of Lake Rzęśniki and compared them with both local and regional signals.
