Abstract The history of eutrophication of the Loosdrecht Lakes system and the differences in trophic state of the compartments of this system are described from a hydrological point of view. Groundwater movement was found to be of paramount importance. This groundwater transport induced a horizontal surface water transport with concomitant biomass from Loosdrecht Lakes to Lake Breukeleveen, which explains partly the more eutrophic situation in the latter lake. The article summarizes several internal WOL-reports (ENGELEN and KAL, 1985; HETTLING, 1985a, b; KUHNEL, 1985; TEUNISSEN, 1985).
