Abstract:Lake Cadagno differs from typical alpine lakes as it is stratified into two water layers that never vertically mix. This stratification creates a niche for the development of primordial anoxygenic phototrophs, which thrive in the chemocline of the lake, forming a characteristic bacterial layer (BL). Yet, the relationship between the temporal variation of meteorological factors that regulate stratification and the development of the BL remains unclear. Here, we explored the intra- and inter-seasonal stability o… Show more
