    Notes: Abstract This study provides the most comprehensive physico-chemical and phytoplankton data yet available for Australian dune lakes, which are among the world's most naturally acidic and oligotrophic freshwaters. Seasonal and spatial variations were examined in Blue Lagoon and Lake Freshwater, two ‘water-table window’ lakes in south-east Queensland. Like other dune lakes, they are acidic (minimum pH 4.20 and 4.55, respectively), polymictic water bodies with low concentrations of marine-derived major ions and almost undetectable levels of trace metals. While linmologically similar in winter, during spring-summer Lake Freshwater has significantly higher levels of chlorophyll-a, total phosphorus (TP) and turbidity than Blue Lagoon and other dune lakes, indicating seasonal mesotrophy. The key nutrient is TP, which has recently increased to a maximum of 17 μ· l−1, due either to inputs from recreational sources, or to the death and decomposition of littoral vegetation resulting from falling water levels over the last decade. Inorganic nitrogen, though present only in small amounts, does not appear to limit the eutrophication process because of a shift in phytoplankton dominance from the usual desmids and dinoflagellates to N2-fixing blue-green algae. A chlorophyll - TP linear regression derived for dune lakes indicates that at TP 〈 20 µg · l−1 chlorophyll ‘yield’ is higher than in other lake types represented by regressions from the literature. This may be due to a more efficient utilization of the limited available phosphorus by dune lake algae which have adapted to the naturally oligotrophic environment. The implications of these findings for lake management are discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: LnHal2Hn - New Phases in the Ternary System Ln/Hal/H (Ln = Lanthanoid, Hal = Br, I) 111. Physical PropertiesIR and diffuse reflectance spectra, magnetic susceptibility and electrical resistance as well as photo-electron spectra of GdI2Hn and CeI2Hn (n ≦ 1) are reported. GdI2Hn samples with 0 〈 n 5 1 are insulators or semiconductors. Compounds with n = 1 are colourless, with n 〈 1 blue transparent. Phases with n 〈 0.9 show metallic lustre. This feature and the electrical properties can be understood on the basis of the electronic structure (Extended Hückel calculations, photoelectron- and reflectance spectroscopy). For n ≠ 1, in contrast to the stoichiometric hydride halides, bands approx. 1 eV below the Fermi edge are populated. With decreasing H content they broaden and the density of states increases. CeI2Hn exhibits a metal-to-semiconductor transition for n = 0.33. According to the susceptibility measurements the ferromagnetic order of GdI2 successively is suppressed by the incorporation of hydrogen. Simultaneously, correlated regions with spontaneous magnetization are maintained. Temperature dependent X-ray diffraction measurements also indicate the existance of such clusters.
    Notes: Es wird über IR- und diffuse Reflexionsspektroskopie, magnetische Suszeptibilitäts- und elektrische Widerstandsmessungen sowie Photoelektronenspektroskopie an GdI2Hn und Cel2Hn und Cel2Hn (n ≦ 1) berichtet. GdI2Hn-Proben mit 0 〈 n ≦ 1 sind Isolatoren bzw. Halbleiter. Verbindungen mit n = 1 sind farblos, mit n 〈 1 blau transparent und n 〈 0,9 zunehmend metallisch glänzend. Dies und die elektrischen Eigenschaften sind mit der elektronischen Struktur (Extended-Hückel-Rechnungen, Photoelektronen- und Reflexionsspektren) interpretierbar: Gegenüber den stöchiometrischen Hydridhalogeniden werden bei n ≠ 1 ca. 1 eV unterhalb der Fermikante Bänder besetzt, die sich mit sinkendem H-Gehalt zunehmend verbreitern und deren Zustandsdichte sich erhöht. CeI2Hn zeigt einen Metall-Halbleiter-Übergang bei n ∼ 0,33.Suszeptibilitätsmessungen zufolge wird die ferromagnetische Ordnung in GdI2 durch den Einbau von Wasserstoff sukzessive unterdrückt. Dies geschieht unter Erhalt von korrelierten Bereichen, die ferromagnetische Spontanmagnetisierung aufweisen. Für die Existenz solcher Cluster sprechen auch die Ergebnisse temperaturabhängiger Röntgendiffraktometrie.
