Description
Summary:[...]lakes in such regions are currently changing or can be expected to change from an open to closed type (Jeppesen et al., 2015). [...]the aspect of salinity is becoming important for freshwater ecologists too. An important generalisation is that in the range of 50-120 g/L, the number of species is mainly determined by a different set of factors. [...]in spite of the fact that salinity is often considered to be the major factor determining the trophic chain structure and plankton species composition, in a wide range of salinities other abiotic and biotic factors influence critically ecosystem functions. [...]we would like to acknowledge all the authors and reviewers for collaboration in preparing this special issue dedicated to the 13th International Conference on Salt Lake Research.
