This volume contains papers from the workshop on Environmental Results, hosted in Windsor, Ontario, by the Great Lakes Science Advisory Board of the International Joint Commission, on September 12 and 13, 1996. The Great Lakes have been through almost a century of severe pollution from the ...
Pollution is defined as "to make something impure"—in this case, the fresh water in lakes, streams, and groundwater . The pollution of water restricts its use for some human need or a natural function in the ecosystem . Types of Pollutants ...
A warming climate will add to stresses the lakes have suffered from industrial pollution and development, particularly overflows from urban sewer systems that carry harmful bacteria, said the report produced by 18 scientists, most from Midwestern universities as well as the National Oceanic and Atmosph...
Climate Variability and Change in a Eutrophic Great Lakes Freshwater Embayment: Shifting Hydrodynamics and the Potential for Indirect Impacts on Biogeochem... Future changes in the climatic regime of the Great Lakes region have the potential to induce a variety of both direct (e.g. thermal) and...
The confined disposal program for polluted dredged spoil in the great lakes Delay in the construction of containment sites is allowing time for significant adjustments in the confined disposal program of the Great Lakes. Through modification of the pollution criteria and improvements in harbor sampling,...

are connected to surrounding rivers and eventually flow into Lake Datong. The elevation of Lake Datong is lower than that of the surrounding areas, such that the lake area is thus a “sink” of non-point-source pollution [23]. Fig. 1...
Local wind regimes induced by a lake or a shoreline may have a major influence on air pollution dispersion. Pressure differences due to differential heating of the air, e.g., that due to differences in surface characteristics, are the driving forces of lake and land breeze circulations and ...
As a large river connected lake, Dongting Lake is influenced by anthropogenic activities and the discharge from its upstream tributaries in the lake basin
These wastes can contain oils, chemicals, sewage, or even foreign organisms. And then, there is the noise of the boat as its propeller forces it through the water. These various forms of pollution affect our oceans in a number of ways....
