Valuma-alueen vaikutus pienten arktisten järvien limnologiaan ja orgaanisen aineksen kulkeutumiseen
The arctic region is sensitive to climate change impacts. Arctic lakes are typically transparent and shallow. Environmental changes occurring in the catchment reflect to DOC (dissolved organic carbon) and nutrients concentration of arctic lakes. Furthermore, productivity of lakes, organic matter tra...

The arctic region is sensitive to climate change impacts. Arctic lakes are typically transparent and shallow. Environmental changes occurring in the catchment reflect to DOC (dissolved organic carbon) and nutrients concentration of arctic lakes. Furthermore, productivity of lakes, organic matter transport and mineralization will change. This thesis examines how the catchment characteristics currently impact the limnology of arctic lakes and assess future changes when temperature and precipitation will increase. Special attention is given to DOC due to its strong impact on the lake ecosystem. Water and sediment samples were collected from 31 lakes from Ivalo to Utsjoki (68°47' and 69°55') at the end of July 2014. pH was measured in situ and the vegetation type of catchment was observed. LOI 550- % (loss-on-ignition) and chlorophyll-a-sediment were measured from surface sediment (0-2 cm). DOC, TP (total phosphorus), TN (total nitrogen), chl-a-water (chlorophyll-a-water), CDOM (colored dissolved organic carbon) components C1-C4,C6, SUVA (specific UV-absorbance), FI-index (fluorescence index) and HI-index (humification index) were measured from water samples from the epilimnion.
