The Impact of Climate Change on Zooplankton Biodiversity Index (ZBDI) in Lake Kinneret, Israel ()
ABSTRACT
Climate change conditions were indicated in the watershed of Lake Kinneret: air and consequently water temperature increase, decline in rainfall, and diminish river discharges accompanied by a reduction in Epilimnetic nitrogen and a slight increase in phosphorus. It is suggested that warming trend of the Kinneret Epilimnion enhanced decline of Zooplankton Biodiversity Index (ZBDI).
