Chemical and biological trends during lake evolution in recently deglaciated terrain

Article Abstract:

A study of the evolution of recently formed lakes in Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska, is presented. It seems that ecological processes sparked off by glacial retreat may cause lakes to age in a directional manner.
