Eutrophy and dystrophy in the Goro Lagoon (Italy)

The eutrophication of the lagoon systems in the coastal areas of the Northwest Adriatic Sea has caused serious damage not only to the ecosystem but also to the economy based on the tourist and fishing industries. This work presents the results of a study on the Goro Cove carried out during 1987-1988...

Zusammenfassung:	The eutrophication of the lagoon systems in the coastal areas of the Northwest Adriatic Sea has caused serious damage not only to the ecosystem but also to the economy based on the tourist and fishing industries. This work presents the results of a study on the Goro Cove carried out during 1987-1988. An analysis of the data shows that the high trophic level and the consequent dystrophies (anoxia of the waters) are caused by the large amount of nutrients carried into the lagoon by the Po and Burana-Volano rivers.
