Der Tuetensee, Kt. Luzern: Zur Problematik kleiner Naturschutzgebiete in Regionen mit intensiver landwirtschaftlicher Nutzung

Abstract

In lake Tueten, a nature reserve in the Canton of Lucerne, all submerse aquatic plants have disappeared, a sign of eutrophic conditions. Hydrochemical analysis of the water of the lake and its tributaries shows that the main cause of this eutrophy is agriculture. Other problems as geomorphologicals are also discussed and solutions proposed.
