Abstract

Evidence is presented that climate change-induced lake warming may cause the same undesired effects as have formerly emerged from excess nutrients (eutrophication). Stronger thermal stratification and reduced mixing has favoured blooming of a toxic cyanobacterium in a large temperate lake previously thought to be successfully ‘restored’ after decades of pollution.
