THONON-LES-BAINS, France — Fish in Lake Geneva — Western Europe's largest lake — are under threat as its waters warm and become increasingly stagnant.
THONON-LES-BAINS, France — Fish in Lake Geneva — Western Europe's largest lake — are under threat as its waters warm and become increasingly stagnant. 'Little by little, the lake's temperature is increasing,' contributing to a lack of oxygen in its depths, said Nicole Gallina, corporate secretary of the International Commission for the Protection of the Waters of Lake Geneva .
. 'If there is less and less oxygen in the water, there is less and less viable space for living organisms,' explained Viet Tran-Khac, laboratory manager at the research institute's facility in the Thonon-les-Bains, on the lake's southern shore. Typically in winter, the surface temperatures cool to a density comparable with the lake's deeper layers, facilitating a mixing of waters between the levels.
