Question
Lake Monona is a freshwater drainage lake in Dane County, Wisconsin. The name
'Monona' is a Chippewa word believed to mean 'beautiful'. Monona is home to many
species of fish and is a popular lake for fishing. However, you suspect it may be
suffering from eutrophication. It has a mean depth of 10 m and a hydraulic retention
time of 1 year.
a. If the phosphorous loading rate is 1.0 g m-² yr-1 and the fraction of sedimented
phosphorous is 0.4, how would you classify the lake based on its eutrophication
level?
b. Would the lake classification be different if the mean depth were 50 m?
c. Would the lake classification be different if the hydraulic retention time were 0.1
year (and the mean depth were 10 m)?
d. Describe what the characteristics of the lake in each of the previous three cases.
What would the lake look like? Feel free to include pictures and/or schematics.
