Understanding alpine ecosystem response to landscape heterogeneity is vital.
- class="label">•
Littoral zoobenthos, catchment and geolocation variates were studied in 113 lakes.
- class="label">•
Dataset illustrates biosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere interaction.
- class="label">•
Fuzzy Set models characterised ecosystem-landscape interactions at various scales.

Ecosystem responded to catchment heterogeneity at scales beyond that of the lake.

This underpins lakes role as sensors of local-to-large scale environmental changes.
