Influence of Cascading River–Lake Systems on the Dynamics of Nutrient Circulation in Catchment Areas
TL;DR: In this paper, an overview of available literature is presented, presenting significant research results which enable an understanding of the processes taking place in the river-lake systems, enabling analyses aimed at forecasting the directions and intensity of these changes and predicting the response of the river−lake systems to the loads from the catchment areas.

Effect of bottom sediments on the nutrient and metal concentration in macrophytes of river-lake systems
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of bottom sediments on the nutrients and metal content in macrophytes in river-lake systems has been analyzed and it was demonstrated that tissues of plants anchored in sediments that were more abundant in nutrients had higher contents of biogenic components and heavy metals.
Variability of the water availability in a river lake system – A case study of Lake Symsar
TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of a river and its catchment on fluctuations in the water availability in a natural lake which belongs to a post-glacial river and lake system was assessed.
The Functioning of a Water Body Within a Fluvio-Lacustrine System as an Effect of Excessive Nitrogen Loading—The Case of Lake Symsar and its Drainage Area (Northeastern Poland)
TL;DR: In this paper, the specific properties of reservoirs located in river-lake systems contribute to an adequate reaction of these reservoirs to situations involving an excessive pollution load, and they were mainly shown to have an accumulation function.

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of rivers on the accumulation of heavy metals in bottom sediments of natural lakes comprised in postglacial river-lake systems was assessed. And the results showed that a river flowing through a lake is a key factor responsible for the input of the majority of available fraction of heavy elements (Zn, Mn, Cd and Ni) into the water body and for their accumulation along the flow of river water in the lake.
