| Résumé : | This short essay will give a brief overview of the role of depth in the ecosystemic function of inland waters and the properties that make them 'shallow' or 'deep'. In accord with the title, we will consider absolute and relative measures but because neither always succeeds in predicting the properties of shallow lakes, we venture a slightly more pragmatic appreciation of ecological function in shallow lakes. |
