Summary Introduction
To review:
The reason as to why the oligotrophic lakes are better than the eutrophic lakes for recreational purposes.
Introduction:
The lakes that get enriched with phosphate nutrients and allow algae to grow exuberantly are called eutrophic lakes. The lakes that are crystal clear and contain no or very little nutrients so as to permit the growth of algae are called oligotrophic lakes.
