Eutrophication factors in north central Florida lakes

Abstract

Nutrient loading rates were estimated for Anderson-Cue Lake in Florida. The lake was artificially spiked with phosphorus. Nutrient budgets for the lake and other lakes were compared. Nutrient sources and sinks for lakes were identified. A partial nutrient budget for Anderson-Cue lake was prepared, and the chemical composition of the lake's water was compared to rainwater. 5 tables.
