What Drives Warming Trends in Streams? a Case Study from the Alpine Foothills
RIVER RESEARCH AND APPLICATIONS River Res. Applic. 31: 663–675 (2015) Published online 8 May 2014 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com) DOI: 10.1002/rra.2763 WHAT DRIVES WARMING TRENDS IN STREAMS? A CASE STUDY FROM THE ALPINE FOOTHILLS F. LEPORI*, M. POZZONI AND S. PERA Institute of Earth Sciences, Canobbio, Switzerland ABSTRACT We investigated the effects of climate warming and land-use changes on the temperature and discharge of seven Swiss and Italian streams in the catchment of Lake Lugano. In addition, we attempted to predict future stream conditions based on regional climate scenarios. Between 1976 and 2012, the study streams warmed by 1.5–4.3 °C, whereas discharge showed no long-term trends. Warming trends were driven mainly by catchment urbanization and two large-scale climatic oscillations, the North Atlantic Oscillation and the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation. In comparison, independent influences by radiative forcing due to increased atmospheric CO2 were uncertain. However, radiative forcing was predicted to further increase stream temperature (to +3–7 °C), reduce summer discharge (to À46%) and increase winter discharge (to +96%) between the present and 2070–2099. These results provide new insights into the drivers of long-term temperature and discharge trends in European streams subject to multiple impacts. The picture emerging is one of transition, where greenhouse-gas forcing is gaining ground over climate oscillations and urbanization, the drivers of past trends. This shift would impress a more directional nature upon future changes in stream temperature and discharge, and extend anthropogenic warming to rural streams. Diffusing future impacts on stream ecosystems would require adaptation measures at local to national scales and mitigation of greenhouse-gas emissions at the global scale. -

Investigations on the Caesium–137 Household of Lake Lugano, Switzerland
Caesium–137 Household of Lake Lugano INVESTIGATIONS ON THE CAESIUM–137 HOUSEHOLD OF LAKE LUGANO, SWITZERLAND J. DRISSNER, E. KLEMT*), T. KLENK, R. MILLER, G.

HouseholdKlemt, TH. of Klenk Lake et Lugano al. samples were taken from different basins of Lake Lugano, and the caesium 137 inventory and vertical distribution was measured. In all samples, a distinct maximum at a depth of 5 to 10 cm can be attributed to the 1986 Chernobyl fallout. Relatively high specific activities of 500 to 1,000 Bq/kg can still be found in the top layer of the sediment. 5 step extraction experiments on sediment samples resulted in percentages of extracted caesium which are a factor of 2 to 8 higher than those of Lake Constance, where caesium is strongly bound to illites. The activity concentration of the water of 3 main tributaries, of the outflow, and of the lake water was in the order of 5 to 10 mBq/l. 1 Introduction Lake Lugano with an area of 48.9 km2 and a mean depth of 134 m is one of the large drinking water reservoirs of southern Switzerland, in the foothills of the southern Alps. The initial fallout of Chernobyl caesium onto the lake was about 22,000 Bq/m2 [1], which is similar to the initial fallout of about 17, 000 Bq/m2 onto Lake Constance, which is located in the prealpine area of southern Germany (north of the Alps). -

The Residence Time of the Water in Lago Maggiore (N. Italy): First Results from an Eulerian-Lagrangian Approach
J. Limnol., 69(1): 15-28, 2010 DOI: 10.3274/JL10-69-1-02 The residence time of the water in Lago Maggiore (N. Italy): first results from an Eulerian-Lagrangian approach Leonardo CASTELLANO*, Walter AMBROSETTI1), Luigi BARBANTI1) and Angelo ROLLA1) Matec Modelli Matematici, Via Rondoni 11, 20146 Milano, Italy 1)CNR Institute for Ecosystem Study, Largo V. Tonolli 50, 28922 Verbania-Pallanza, Italy *e-mail corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT The paper describes a numerical study for estimating the spatial distribution of the hydraulic residence time in Lago Maggiore. A 3D eulerian time-dependent CFD code has been applied under real conditions, taking into account the effects of the monthly mean values of the mass flow rates and temperatures of all the tributaries, mass flow rate of the Ticino effluent and meteorological, hydrogeological and limnological parameters available from the rich data-base of CNR-ISE (Pallanza). The velocity distributions from these simulations were used to compute the paths of a number of massless markers with different initial positions and so evaluate their residence times within the lake. The results presented here follow a two-year simulation and show encouraging agreement with the mechanisms of mixing and of deep water oxygenation revealed by recent limnological studies carried out at CNR-ISE. Further studies are in progress to improve the results and extend the research over a time period of at least four years.
