چکیده
Green Lakes State Park, located -15 km east of Syracuse, New York near the village of Fayetteville, is a stunning geologic and limnologic wonderland (Fig. 1). Located along the axis of a narrow glacial meltwater channel, the Park consists of two small, moderately deep (maximum water depth of -53 m) lake basins (Green Lake and Round Lake), protected along their flanks by steep walls of Silurian bedrock and separated from each other by a small modem wetland (Figs. 2 and 3).

Studies in three lakes near Syracuse, New York, showed that most consumers ultimately derive their C and S nutrition from a mixture of terrestrial detritus, phytoplankton, and littoral v...
