Description:
In this study, we evaluate whether it is possible to distinguish the effects of eutrophication from other, i.e. hydrographical, factors affecting zooplankton. We illustrate our arguments with examples from an old set of zooplankton data which includes 9-year records on mesozooplankton and hydrography collected from Seili, off the south coast of Finland. The present study shows that hydrographic changes override or mask, at least in the time period studied, possible eutrophication effects.
