Abstract
As a first step towards a larger ecosystem model mainly the photosynth esis-light-temperature responses of phytoplankton were evaluated. The iterative procedure to optimize the prognostic value of the modelling equations is based on multiple regression analysis and residual statis tics. Within the evaluations vertical, seasonal and long-term variabil ity of phytoplankton were considered in order to identify the specific situation in the lake.
