Models to predict total phosphorus concentrations in coastal embayments of eastern Georgian Bay, Lake Huron
Several coastal embayments of eastern Georgian Bay show signs of water-quality impairment thought to be caused by human activities. Here, we evaluate the ability of the Lakeshore Capacity Model (LCM), developed for Precambrian Shield lakes,to assess the impact of cottage… Read More
Use of the morphoedaphic index to predict nutrient status and algal biomass in some Canadian lakes
The underlying assumptions of the morphsedaphic index (MEI; total dissolved solids (TBS)/rnean depth), which has been used to predict fish yields in lakes, and its power for predicting biomass at lower trophic levels were examined using published data. The assumptions included… Read More
