| Abstract |
Lake Erie has been monitored annually since 1970 to determine lake eutrophication status and to discern trends. The key parameter of interest is the oxygen content during the late summer stratified period. Oxygen budgets have been calculated for both the central and eastern basins of Lake Erie since 1970 and the trend data has been summarized. In an effort to reduce costs and variability in results, a 'homogeneous area' has been determined for both the central and eastern basin. The oxygen depletion trend data reported here has beeen calculated for the 'homogeneous area' only. |
