Popis: | In July to August 1999–2001, 53 zooplankton species were recorded in high-mountain lakes of Altai (1800–2400 m above sea level). The abundance of zooplankton varies considerably, but the average values of abundance and biomass are low. According to zooplankton characteristics, the high-mountain lakes are oligotrophic and oligosaprobic. The species composition of the zooplankton community depends on the area and depth of the lakes, and the quantitative indices, particularly in the littoral zone, are determined by water temperature. |
