The salinization process resulted in agricultural damage in the Hula Valley and water quality deterioration in Lake Kinneret. Therefore, salinization-desalinization (SDS) processes have been emphasized in the last two decades. Global and regional extreme climatological events and water scarcity strengthen the link between Hula Valley and Lake Kinneret management design. A bond between optimizing Hula agricultural maintenance and Kinneret water quality protection is conclusively suggested. Saline contribution originated from the southern Hula Valley region to the underground and surface water is higher than from the northern organic soil. The impact of eastern water Intrusion from the Golan Heights as surface waters, river discharge and underground seepage into the Hula Valley represent north-south gradient enhancement. Salinized surface water contribution from the Hula Valley to Lake Kinneret is unwanted because presently Kinneret desalinization management policy is critically required. The present salinization of surface and underground water in the Hula Valley indicates the upper limit suitable for agricultural crop optimization and the decline of salinity is crucial. Enhancement of the portion of Jordan water within the total balance in the valley is beneficial for Hula agricultural crops but serves as a disadvantage to Kinneret desalinization implementation. Therefore, the enhancement of lake water exchange is recommended.

The operational function of the trunk limbs (thoracic appendages), of Daphnia, P3 and P4, is a long-term disputed definition between “solid walls”, sieving filters. Sieving is unlikely process for routine particle collection, particle capture is not a simple mechanical process and not by sieving alone. Analysis promotion supported by direct observational examination of the in-vivo cinematographic slow-motion film and magnified solid photos of tethered Daphnia by high-speed camera (250 frames per second) resulted in a definite interpretation presented in this paper. The Daphnia’s feeding mechanism achieves particles abstraction not by sieving. The existence of two internal alternate water flow routs was indicated: Lateral and Median. These micro flow structures are suggested as vulnerability reduction.

The Hula Valley was drained in 1957. The land use was modified from natural wetland and old shallow lake ecosystems to agricultural development. About half of the drained land area was utilized for aquaculture. Population size was enhanced and the diary was developed intensively resulting in the enhancement of domestic and husbandry sewage production that increased as well. The natural intact Hula Valley-Lake Kinneret ecosystem was heavily anthropogenically interrupted: The Hula was drained and Kinneret became a national source for domestic water supply. Some aspects of the environmental and water quality protection policy of the system are presented. The causation and operational management implications for the reduction of Nitrogen and Phosphorus migration from the Hula Valley are discussed. Drastic (81%) restriction of aquaculture accompanied by sewage totally removed achieved a reasonable improvement in pollution control which was also supported by the Hula Project. The implications of anthropogenic intervention in the process of environmental management design are presented.

Reports on the Kinneret zooplankton in general and particularly on copepods are dealing recently with numerical densities of feeding habit classes. Nevertheless, for the evaluation of the integrated role of copepod assemblages in the entire lake ecosystem, their life cycle stages fluctuations are essential. It was not done in previous reports. Therefore, long term analysis of the cyclopoid copepods life stages dynamics in Lake Kinneret was carried out. Due to information availability, two complementary methods of density concentrations were evaluated for two consecutive data sets: 1) 1969-1985 numerical (No/L) documentation of life cycle stages of nauplii (I - III and III - V), copepodites (I, II, III, IV, V) and adults;2) 1969-2002 monthly averages of wet biomass density (g/m2) of zooplankton major groups combined with metabolic rates. nauplii densities represent June-August peaks and older stages spring decline and high levels during summer-early winter. Polynomial Regressions between Numerical annual averages of predator and Herbivore stages as well as young vs. older life stages indicate significant relations. During winter-spring season, temperatures are optimal for cyclopoid growth as a result of the high efficiency of metabolic activity and the low pressure of fish predation. The high rate of metabolism and intensive fish predation in summer enhance low densities of adult cyclopoids.

A correlation between fishery and extreme winter conditions in Lake Kinneret was indicated: po pulations of Bleak fishes were enhanced and those of Sarotherodon galilaeus (SG) declined. The aim of the present study is to confirm the relation of those correlations to EL-NINO/Southern Oscillation and its impact on Kinneret fishery. The study is based on long-term data records of the Kinneret Epilimnetic temperatures, water level increase, precipitation and air temperatures in the drainage basin, together with a record of EL NINO/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events. Results suggest a confirmation of the impact of ENSO events on lake population size of Bleaks and SG. It is likely that the influence of ENSO on the two key fish species in the Lake is contradictory: enhancement of reproduction of the winter spawner Bleaks and reduction of population recruitment of the early summer spawner, Sarotherodon galilaeus. It is likely that winter extreme in Kinneret region is a consequence of ENSO event and therefore negatively affecting Kinneret water quality.

Until 1957, the Hula Valley was covered by swampy wetlands and a shallow lake, Lake Hula. In the 1950s, the valley was drained and 6000 ha of land was converted to agricultural development. Seven years later, the National Water Carrier was inaugurated, granting the only natural freshwater lake in Israel, Kinneret, a national drinking water reservoir function. Agricultural cultivation in the Hula Valley faced significant challenges. A reclamation project, the “Hula Project” (HP), was implemented. Thirty (1994-2024) years of HP management are summarized. TP and TN migration data from the Hula Valley southward into Lake Kinneret was approved as not threatening its water quality. During 40 years of post-drainage period underground fire, heavy dust storms were frequently followed by soil subsidence. Nevertheless, as a result of the HP renovated management, those nuisances faded away and significantly declined. Immediately after drainage, as a result of organic Peat oxidation, a great stock of nitrates in the upper layers was formed. Since the mid-1990s, when nitrogen deficiency was developed and Cyanobacteria replaced the bloom-forming Peridinium dominancy, surplus nitrate input has not threatened Kinneret water quality. The hydrological-eco-touristic component of the reclamation project (HP), Lake Agmon-Hula (LAH) became a successful tourist attraction and also an additional nutrient source through submerged vegetation. Two Peat soil areas of land have been denied: the central and the eastern blocks. Soil moisture enhancement, especially that of the Peat soil block, initiated the lowering of the TP migration range and consequently extra water allocation was assigned for summer irrigation (the “Peat Convention Agreement”). Surface, underground seepage and river discharge flows of freshwaters from the Golan Heights into the Hula valley diluted the concentration of migrated TP concentration contributed by the eastern Peat block.

Two models have been developed for the evaluation and prediction of salinity changes (chloride concentration;ppm;[Cl]) in Lake Kinneret. They are: 1) RM, which is based on the Salt balance and hydrological budget of the lake;2) GM which is based on the geo-hydrological regional properties of Kinneret’s geological structure. The concept of both is partly different: RM is correlating reduction of runoffs to salinity elevation and GM relates salt flux to the aquifer yield and the impact of lake water level is neglected. Long term statistical analyses justify support to GM, excluding conditions of heavy floods. This paper is a combination of a supplemental extended temporal study and a models review. Practical conclusions on Kinneret hydrological management within a frame of constrains aimed at prevention of salinity and eutrophication increase are presented.

The main soil type, principle contributor of nutrients and available agricultural land in the Hula Valley is the organic Peat. Nevertheless, the relative contribution of Phosphorus from the Hula Valley to the Lake Kinneret inputs is lower than regional outsourcing. The Nitrogenic matter, mostly Nitrate migration from the Peat soil is significant. The implementation of efficient development is the key factor of Hula Land use. The financial beneficial success of the Hula land use is therefore dependent of Peat soil properties. The porosity of the Peat Soil is high and preferential pathway volume is low and Hydraulic Conductivity is therefore low. Consequently, the Mobile Spray Irrigation line was found as most suitable for cultivation in Peat Soil. Enhancement of Summer irrigation creating moisture elevation reduces Phosphorus migration from Peat Soil and is therefore recommended and recently implemented.

Several ecological key factors were indicated in the Lake Kinneret ecosystem during 1969-2000: Elevation of the biomass of non-pyrrhophyte-phytoplankton, chlorophyta, cyanobacteria, and diatoms;decline of Peridinium maximal from 215 - 240 to 175 - 200 ranges (g/m2);decline of zooplankton (herbivore and predator) relative to phytoplankton biomass (g/m2);lower loads of Nitrogen and slightly also phosphorus in the river Jordan discharge;decline of precipitations and lake water level;significant decline of epilimnetic nitrogen and minor changes of phosphorus concentrations initiated decline of N/P mass ratio to the establishment of a significant change of the ecosystem to be modified from P to N limitation. What could be other than essential outcome of future prediction that results of 20 years (1969-2000) of routine and comprehensive monitor carried out in Lake Kinneret initiated? The Lake Kinneret ecosystem dynamics after 2000 justified retroactive post-factum earlier conclusion of appropriate predictability.
