Abstract
In August 1970, ten mountain lakes on the island of Corsica (France) were studied. Temperatures and oxygen concentrations were measured as depth profiles, the shading effects of surrounding topographic elevations as skyline values compared to corresponding daily solar elevations. Turbidity and approximate underwater light spectra were evaluated using six color Secchi discs. Alkalinity and electrical conductivity values showed extremely soft water in the lakes. The influence of altitude on lake surface temperatures was analysed, compared to lakes in the Caucasus region and could be separated from the influence of topographical sun shading. Six copepod species were found in zooplankton samples and compared to meta-communities in lakes in other mountain regions.
