Chemical and physical characteristics of lakes in the northeastern United States

As part of the Eastern Lake Survey, data on 26 chemical parameters were measured for 768 lakes in the north eastern U.S.A., including all of the New England states together with parts of N.Y., Pa., and N.J. A summary of the data obtained is presented in tables and graphs. The results were analysed t...

Zusammenfassung:	As part of the Eastern Lake Survey, data on 26 chemical parameters were measured for 768 lakes in the north eastern U.S.A., including all of the New England states together with parts of N.Y., Pa., and N.J. A summary of the data obtained is presented in tables and graphs. The results were analysed to examine relationships between physical and chemical variables that might influence the response of the lakes to acid deposition or other perturbations. The data supported the hypothesis that regional lake acidification had occurred in northeastern U.S.A. (see preceding abstract).
