In aquatic systems, phyroplankron abundance is strongly influenced by nutrient availability. For temperate zone lakes, it has been clearly shown that the variation among lakes in plankron chlorophyll a concentrations (Chl a) is strongly relared ro rota! phosphorus (TP) levels (DILLON & RrGLER 197 4, McCAULEY et al. 1989, PRAIRIE er al. 1989). Further experimental manipulations have shown that phosphorus often limits algal growth (SCHINDLER 1977). This has allowed lake managers to manipulate TP levels to conrrol algal biomass. However, there still remains a higher level of residual variability in rhe Chl a-TP relationship than managers might wish (CARPENTER et al. 1985). Although many studies have attempted ro relate this residual variability to other lake characteristics (CURRIE 1990, QuiR6S 1990), no general explanation has yet been identified.
