Impact of Climate Change on Lakes
Lakes are vulnerable to changes in meteorological boundary conditions. Especially climate change will affect the thermal stratification of lakes and make short-duration heavy rainfall events more frequent and intense. 
Physical Limnology of Urban Lakes
Urban lakes are influenced by multiple external factors shaping their physical characteristics and ecosystems.
Sediment Biogeochemistry
Diagenetic reactions in the lake sediments determine retention and internal fluxes in the lake ecosystem.

Climate Change Demands Adaptive Management of Urban Lakes: Model- Based Assessment of Management Scenarios for Lake Tegel (Berlin, Germany)
Published in Water, 2018
This paper is about the calibration of a vertical 1D hydrodynamic-water quality model (GLM-AED2) to Lake Tegel. The model was used to investigate the impact of climate change under alternative management scenarios on the lake ecosystem.

Future projections of water level and thermal regime changes of a multipurpose subtropical reservoir (Sao Paulo, Brazil)
Published in Science of The Total Environment, 2021
Using data generated by a regionalized climate model (RCM) as input to a simple hydrological model and a one-dimensional vertical hydrodynamic model, we forecast potential changes in the Itupararanga reservoir, São Paulo, Brazil, in an exemplary time period (2028–2030) in the next decade.

Lake thermal structure drives interannual variability in summer anoxia dynamics in a eutrophic lake over 37 years
Published in Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2021
In this study, we used a vertical one-dimensional hydrodynamic-ecological model (GLM-AED2) coupled with a calibrated hydrological catchment model (PIHM-Lake) to simulate the thermal and water quality dynamics of the eutrophic Lake Mendota (USA) over a 37-year period to get a better understanding of inter-annual drivers of summer anoxia.

Impact of salinization on lake stratification and spring mixing
Published in Limnology and Oceanography Letters, 2021
Around the world, freshwater lakes are increasing in salinity due to salt pollution. High salt concentrations can harm freshwater organisms but also can stabilize lake water columns because saline water is denser than freshwater. In a worst case scenario, salinization can prevent the ecologically important spring turnover event of the water column. Using multiple approaches, we found that increased winter salt loading will delay spring turnover, prolong summer stratification, and increase water column stability during spring, summer, and winter in north temperate lakes.

Integrating periphyton and surface water–groundwater methods to understand lake ecosystem processes
Published in Limnology and Oceanography Methods, 2021
We (1) propose how to overcome barriers associated with studying littoral ecological-hydrological dynamics; (2) summarize field, laboratory, and modeling techniques for assessing spatiotemporal periphyton patterns and benthic hydrological fluxes; and (3) identify paths for hydrological techniques to be incorporated into ecological studies, deepening our understanding of whole-lake ecosystem function.
