Onondaga Lake – Dissolved Oxygen
21
Oneida Lake – Dissolved Oxygen
22
Lake Erie – Dissolved Oxygen
23
Gulf of Mexico – Dissolved Oxygen
24
Aerobic and Anaerobic Metabolism Aerobic (oxygen available) Anaerobic (oxygen not available)
25
Oligotrophic Low in nutrients, TP<10 Low in algae Oxygen at saturation High transparency Cold water fishery Deep lakes with steep sides and infertile, often rocky watersheds. Eutrophic High in nutrients, TP>20 High in algae Oxygen (+, epi), (-, hyp) Low transparency Warm water fishery Shallow lakes with gently sloping sides and cultivated, fertile watersheds.

Natural Eutrophication
27
Cultural Eutrophication
28
Lakes: Loss of Beneficial Use Nutrients – aesthetics, recreation, drinking water Microorganisms – recreation, drinking water Toxics – wildlife, drinking water heavy metals: cadmium, lead, mercury synthetic organic chemicals: DDT, PCB, dioxin
