Long-term environmental monitoring in arctic lakes and ponds using diatoms and other biological indicators.
Latrines were built far from the huts which they were meant to serve and too close for health to ponds and water tanks.
Thereafter, rainwater was allowed to fill the ponds, although water was removed when necessary to maintain the original level.
In 2000, larger mosquito larvae generally predominated in the ponds.
Perhaps our result came from sampling all genotypes from similar types of small ponds.
The minor floral debris present in these sediments may have been derived from shallow zones of the ponds.
All these populations bred in medium-sized ponds (maximum depth <1.6 m) with populations of 50-150 breeding females.
The construction and use of settling ponds is the key to reducing water exchange and improving effluent quality.
