  • Human Impact on the Transport of Terrigenous and Anthropogenic Elements to Peri-Alpine Lakes (Switzerland) Over the Last Decades

This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract Terrigenous (Sc, Fe, K, Mg, Al, Ti) and suspended sediment load at a regional scale. In fact, the anthropogenic (Pb and Cu) element fluxes were measured extensive river damming that occurred in the upstream in a new sediment core from Lake Biel (Switzerland) and watershed catchment (between ca. 1930 and 1950 and up to in previously well-documented cores from two upstream 2,300 m a.s.l.) and that significantly modified seasonal lakes (Lake Brienz and Lake Thun). These three large peri- suspended sediment loads and riverine water discharge alpine lakes are connected by the Aare River, which is the patterns to downstream lakes noticeably diminished the main tributary to the High Rhine River. Major and trace long-range transport of (fine) terrigenous particles by the element analysis of the sediment cores by inductively Aare River. Concerning the transport of anthropogenic coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) shows that pollutants, the lowest lead enrichment factors (EFs Pb) the site of Lake Brienz receives three times more terrige- were measured in the upstream course of the Aare River at nous elements than the two other studied sites, given by the the site of Lake Brienz, whereas the metal pollution was role of Lake Brienz as the first major sediment sink located highest in downstream Lake Biel, with the maximum val- in the foothills of the Alps.

  • Constitution of an Automized Processing Chain to Analyse a Meris Time Series of Swiss Lakes
    CONSTITUTION OF AN AUTOMIZED PROCESSING CHAIN TO ANALYSE A MERIS TIME SERIES OF SWISS LAKES Daniel Odermatt a, *, Thomas Heege b, Jens Nieke a, Mathias Kneubühler a and Klaus Itten a a Remote Sensing Laboratories (RSL), Dept. of Geography, University of Zurich, Winterthurerstrasse 190, CH-8050 Zurich, Switzerland - (dodermat, nieke, kneub, itten)@geo.unizh.ch b EOMAP GmbH & Co. KG, Sonderflughafen Oberpfaffenhofen, D-82205 Gilching, Germany - [email protected] KEY WORDS: Inland water, Case II water, lakes, MERIS, water constituents ABSTRACT: The physically based Modular Inversion & Processing System (MIP) is used in an automized processing chain for inland water constituent retrieval from MERIS level 1B data. Preprocessing routines are used to automatically convert the ESA generic data products into MIP input data format. Water/land masking, atmospheric correction and water constituent retrieval are accomplished by simple batch executables from MIP. The accuracy of the constituent retrieval mainly depends on the spectral fit between the image input data and the radiative transfer model results extracted from a database. Therefore, thresholds and initial values for model fitting have to account for all occurring lake specific temporal variations and need careful adjustment. 1. INTRODUCTION Heege, 2000), using the Modular Inversion & Processing System (MIP) (Heege and Fischer, 2004). Monitoring of water quality in lakes is required as an integral part of water resource management, in order to guarantee the In this work, a processing chain to automatically derive water sustainable use of water and to track the effects of constituents from MERIS level 1B data for Swiss lakes is built anthropogenic influences. Simultaneously, adequate monitoring around MIP.
