| Research Abstract |
General surveys on water quality of 31 sand dune lakes in Niigata and Akita Pref. were conducted to evaluate the eutrophication. Life cycle or distribution of some endangered species such as Nymphoides peltata and Euryale ferox、and dominant species such as Trapa spp. and Nelumbo nucifera inhabited in sand dune lakes were also studied. Intensive limnological studies of Lake Sagata, a typical sand dune lake in Niigata City, where watermelon, tobacco and Japanese radish are cultivated as main crops on the periphery of the lake, revealed the importance of protection of reed zone around the lake to decrease nitrate nitrogen from the farm land and covering of Trapa vegetation to regulate the harmful water bloom by cyanobacteria.
