Abstract
Water quality assessment for lentic systems is difficult to
measure by one or two methods when considered in terms of complex
biological and chemical interactions, physical variations, and
constant alteration of environmental conditions. Twenty years of
research data have been accumulated for Three Lakes Association
with emphasis directed at water quality changes of lake systems
under juristiction of the aforementioned organization.
Compilation of this data is expressed on comparative associations
in several sections of this report. These include chemical and
limnological data, algal associations, bacterial associations, and
benthic associations where applicable* Results are tabulated and
graphed when possible to show variations of lentic conditions versus
time. Careful examination of results will provide insight
toward possible regeneration, degeneration, or similarities in
water quality.
