Absztrakt (kivonat)

Thermal lake ecosystems represent unique freshwater environments shaped by interactions among geothermal processes, hydrochemical conditions, and biological communities. These systems are increasingly exposed to pressures from tourism, land use change, and environmental variability, which underscores the need for effective ecological monitoring and ecological management. This study aims to compare the ecological characteristics, monitoring systems, and governance frameworks of Lake Hévíz in Hungary and Lake Linow in Indonesia in order to identify key differences and potential lessons for conservation management. A mixed methodological approach was applied, combining ecological data synthesis, spatial analysis, and policy review based on available monitoring records, published studies, and institutional documents. The findings show that the two lakes differ markedly in geological origin, hydrochemical composition, and biological communities. Lake Hévíz exhibits a relatively stable ecological structure supported by continuous geothermal inflow and long-standing conservation measures. Lake Linow displays higher environmental variability influenced by volcanic activity and fluctuating sulfur concentrations. Monitoring practices also differ, with Lake Hévíz supported by a structured long-term program, while access to monitoring data for Lake Linow is limited due to complex administrative procedures. Governance frameworks further shape ecological outcomes, with Lake Hévíz protected under national conservation legislation, while Lake Linow lacks formal protected status. These results highlight the importance of integrated monitoring and coherent governance in maintaining the resilience of geothermal lake ecosystems. The comparative insights provide a foundation for strengthening conservation strategies, particularly in tropical geothermal lakes facing increasing environmental pressures. Keywords: geothermal lakes, ecological monitoring, hydrochemistry, governance, conservation management
