TAXONOMIC COVERAGE:
Organisms studied

Methods:	Water samples collected at designated sites and depths in the outer lakes were analyzed on the Technicon Autoanalyzer II using Technicon methods for SRP, ammonia, and nitrite/nitrate. In addition to the Standard series run at the beginning and end of each analysis 4 standards and a blank were run with each tray of samples. Notes: These were all samples that were run by Bill Rowe throughout the summer. Reference Citations: R.G. Wetzel & G.E. Likens. 1979. Limnological Methods. Saunders. Philadelphia.
