1 Phosphorus Loading and Related Impacts in Southern Cayuga Lake Dave Matthews Upstate Freshwater Institute Syracuse, NY
2 Upstate Freshwater Institute (UFI) mission: advance freshwater research and protect the freshwater resources of New York State established in 1981 not-for-profit [51(c)(3)] independent, with close professional ties to SU and CESF interdisciplinary research 27+ peer-reviewed manuscripts Systems studied: Onondaga Lake, Three Rivers System, Finger Lakes, NYC Reservoirs, Great Lakes, Lake Champlain
3 Symptoms of Excessive P Loading high levels of phytoplankton biomass blooms of nuisance cyanobacteria low transparency Common Metrics of Trophic State total P concentration - TP chlorophyll concentration - Chl Secchi disc transparency SD
4 Contributing Data Sets Cornell University-Lake Source Cooling (LSC) bi-weekly, April-October, 9 sites in southern Cayuga Lake, phosphorus, chlorophyll, Secchi disc Upstate Freshwater Institute phosphorus measurements in Cayuga Inlet and Fall Creek synoptic surveys of the Finger Lakes in 1996, 24 Community Science Institute Fall Creek phosphorus measurements during high flows Ithaca Area and Cayuga Heights WWTP phosphorus loading information

15 Summary phosphorus loading to southern Cayuga Lake is dominated by tributary inputs, particularly during high runoff years modest water quality benefits expected from a 5% decrease in phosphorus loading from Ithaca Area WWTP clarity on the southern shelf is regulated by terrigenous inorganic particles rather than phytoplankton the southern shelf flushes rapidly (once per day), which moderates water quality differences with the main lake differences in transparency among the Finger Lakes explained by concentrations of inorganic particles and phytoplankton
