Changes in the hydrologic aspects of climate are of optimum importance. However, the details of past changes in the hydrologic cycle are difficult to reconstruct. In this report we show the firs results of the analyses of paleohydrological proxies (n-alkanes) that allow the reconstruction of multiple terms of the hydrologic budget in the GPNP. We analyzed a core from Lake Trebecchi (GPNP), and after the definition of the age-dating chronology, we measured the concentrations of n-alkanes and their major indexes (ACL, Paq, C27/C31) usually selected to infer information about hydrological evolution of the ecosystems.

Measurements of chlorophyll-a are part of lake monitoring, which is usually carried out by monthly sampling at many regular lake sites (5 to 17 sites depending on the intensity of the measurements over the years). The integrated sample represents the whole water column of this polymictic shallow lake with a mean lake depth of 1.2m. The photometric measurement satisfies the analytical standards of Ö-Norm in Austria.
