## Sites and methods The populations of bacteria were followed for a year in two small shallow lakes, one naturally eutrophic (Upton Broad), the other culturally eutrophic (Alderfen Broad). In Upton Broad there were peaks in population in summer and late autumn. In Alderfen Broad peaks occurred at

Dissolved carbohydrates comprise one of the largest pools of labile organic matter readily available for bacterial use in pelagic ecosystems. Despite this fact, very little is known about use of dissolved carbohydrates by planktonic bacteria. We studied use of total dissolved carbohydrates (TDCHO) b
The production of planktonic rotifers was studied in eutrophic Lake Ormajarvi . Of the total annual production of rotifers (2 .9 g org . C m-2 or 231 mg dry weight m -3) 49% was achieved during one month (July) and 88% during 3 months of summer . The most important producers were Keratella cochleari
