Summary |
The thesis investigates two adjacent volcanic maar lakes, with differences in chemical and biological properties. Lake Bullen Merri a brackish, phosphorous-limited lake that suffers from nuisance algal blooms and Lake Purrumbete a fresh, nitrogen-limited lake with diverse phytoplankton assemblage. Nutrient fluxes for both lakes are dominated by internal cycling |
