Primary productivity in an Indiana lake, which contained a metalimnetic layer of cyanobacteria, was calculated for the summers of 1979–81 by using a numerical model. Production estimates of 183 and 187 g C∙m−2 were obtained for 1979 and 1980; the estimate for 1981 was 50% higher. These values were two- to four-fold higher than estimates made in 1963 and 1964. Production in the metalimnion accounted for 29, 44, and 34% of the total during the three summers. Changes in the vertical distribution of biomass in the water column appeared to have had a greater effect upon metalimnetic production than differences in water transparency or incident solar radiation. The average values measured for the latter two variables were reasonably similar during the 3 yr, whereas the depth at which the metalimnetic layer of cyanobacteria stratified decreased from 9 m in 1979 to 5 m in 1981.

AbstractSurface melting of High Mountain Asian debris-covered glaciers shapes the seasonal water supply to millions of people. This melt is strongly influenced by the spatially variable thickness of the supraglacial debris layer, which is itself partially controlled by englacial debris concentration and melt-out. Here, we present measurements of deep englacial debris concentrations from debris-covered Khumbu Glacier, Nepal, based on four borehole optical televiewer logs, each up to 150 m long. The mean borehole englacial debris content is ≤ 0.7% by volume in the glacier’s mid-to-upper ablation area, and increases to 6.4% by volume near the terminus. These concentrations are higher than those reported for other valley glaciers, although those measurements relate to discrete samples while our approach yields a continuous depth profile. The vertical distribution of englacial debris increases with depth, but is also highly variable, which will complicate predictions of future rates of surface melt and debris exhumation at such glaciers.

The Vertical Distribution

A freeze-coring device using liquid nitrogen is described, which enables one person to take a columnar core, extending from the surface to at least 50 cm below a stony streambed. An experiment to validate the technique showed that animals did not flee from the advance of the freezing-front. Using frozen streambed cores, the vertical distribution of benthic invertebrates of two streams in southern Ontario was investigated. In contrast to previous estimates,~70% of the fauna was found in the top 10 cm of the streambed, and invertebrate densities were often lower by an order of magnitude. These differences are attributed to problems of quantifying previous sampling methods.
