Abstract:

Environmental conditions and biological processes in the eulittoral – intermediate zone between lake and surrounding land were analysed. Investigations were carried out on 16 lakes (eutrophic, mesotrophic and dystrophic) of Masurian Lakeland in northern Poland. The range of eulittoral depending on the water level fluctuation and configuration of shore terrace, is to a considerable extent modified by the erosion and accumulation processes. Allochthonous mattter (of lake and terrestrial origin) and autochthonous production are the sources of organic matter in the eulittoral. The decomposition rate of this kind of matter was analysed. The role of the eulittoral in the functioning of lake system was discussed.
