Abstract

Subfossil chironomid assemblages in surface sediments from Swiss mountain lakes show a strong, statistically significant relationship with lake depth and with parameters related to altitude, such as July temperature, dissolved organic carbon concentration, or organic matter content of the sediments. Unexpectedly, water chemistry variables such as total phosphorus concentration and pH were not identified as relevant parameters.
