Abstract
Nutrient load in the main lake is similar to that found in tributary embayments. Chlorophyll a productivity is generally lower in the main lake than in the embayments, and this is thought to result from the short hydraulic retention time of the main lake. Main lake productivity does increase down stream as the reservoir becomes lacustrine.
