One hundred and eight lakes throughout insular Newfoundland were sampled in the summer and fall of 1991 for morphometry, chemistry and zooplankton populations as part of DFO's (Department of Fisheries and Oceans) National Inventory Survey (NIS) conducted under the Departmental acid rain program. Data collected In this study are used to investigate relationships between lake characteristics (morphometric and chemical properties) and zooplankton distributions and associations on the Island of Newfoundland. A particular focus of the evaluation was to attempt to identity variables related to the long range transport of air pollutants (LRTAP) and the possible influence of these parameters on zooplankton. Attention is also paid to the zoogeography of zooplankters in the region in this and other studies to provide a comprehensive baseline for future Iimnological research.
