Abstract
Spatial and temporal changes in the zooplankton community of Lake George, NY were examined over a four-year period from 2014-2017. Lake George is an oligotrophic lake that is affected by the threats posed by nutrient pollution, climate change and the impact of invasive species. The oligotrophic nature of this system coupled with the multitude of threats affecting it makes this an ideal system to study how zooplankton communities respond to environmental change.
