Jani Heino and others published the paper Lakes in the era of global change: moving beyond single-lake thinking in maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services. The article describes the vulnerability and importance of lakes. It also describes the differences in lakes and how these differences contribute to the dynamics of these systems. Factors such as lake connectivity in the waterscape and position in the landscape are described as determining the degree to which a lake is prone to invasion by non‐native species and accumulation of harmful substances. Lastly, the paper looks at monitoring and restoration of lake biodiversity and ecosystem services, and also the challenges that hinder adaptive management of lakes.
