AN ANALYSIS OF FACTORS GOVERNING PRODUCTIVITY IN LAKES AND RESERVOIRS1
Data collected as part of the International Biological Program from 43 lakes and 12 reservoirs, distributed from the tropics to the arctic, were subjected to statistical analysis to establish which factors are important in controlling production and how they are related. In the whole body of data, v...

Data collected as part of the International Biological Program from 43 lakes and 12 reservoirs, distributed from the tropics to the arctic, were subjected to statistical analysis to establish which factors are important in controlling production and how they are related.

Morphological factors have little influence on productivity per unit area in either case.
