                                           SUMMARY
      Samples from 146 lakes in the northeastern United States, collected during Phase II of the Eastern
Lake Survey (ELS-II) were analyzed for abundance of each species and each size class of zooplankton.
An estimate of sampling and counting error was provided by replication of lake sampling and sample
subsampling. Among-lake variance in zooplankton assemblages was large compared to sampling and
counting errors.
      The composition of zooplankton assemblages (not abundance) exhibited clear relationships with
physical and chemical features of the lakes.  Assemblage structure was examined at various levels:
diversity, major genera, and individual species. Genera and species  level identifications revealed the
clearest relationships to water chemistry, although significant relational  patterns were discerned using
only major taxonomic groups or size structure information.
      Significant regional influences (biogeographic patterns) were also observed at various levels of
organization (major taxonomic groups, genera, species, and diversity).  Only rarely did these biogeo-
graphic patterns interact with the general chemistry relationships.  In a  few cases, however,  relationships
between chemistry and zooplankton assemblages did depend on geographic region.
      These results illustrate the utility of studying zooplankton assemblages as sensitive indicators of
water chemistry. This report makes recommendations for improving  methods of relating zooplankton
species to environmental factors.

                                       1. INTRODUCTION

      The primary goal of this study was to provide a broad-scale objective representation of
zooplankton assemblages in lakes in the northeastern United States.  Secondly, we looked for
relationships between zooplankton communities and the physical and chemical components of these
lakes.
      Ultimately, a mechanistic (causal) understanding of lake plankton communities will require detailed,
process-oriented, and generally experimental approaches.  By their very nature, however, such studies
are limited in scope.  This report provides a context within which the  generality of results from more
selective, process-oriented studies can be evaluated.
      From an ecological perspective, lakes are islands, yet they are  characterized by strong coupling
with the surrounding  land and atmosphere. Research directed toward understanding the regulation of
biological communities  of lakes must acknowledge the interplay of physical, chemical, and biological
variables operating both within a lake and in relationships among lake, land, and atmosphere.  Five
broad classes of influence can be recognized.

      1.   Morphometry:  physical structure of the lake basin
      2.   Watershed factors: land use and development, topography, hydrology, geology, and
          vegetation
      3.   Atmospheric factors: turbulence and chemical loading
      4.   Biogeography:  species ranges and immigration rates
      5.   Species interactions: direct and indirect effects of competition, predation, etc.

      Since geographic gradients to many of these factors exist, regional patterns might be expected to
emerge. However, these factors interact in highly complex ways to create tremendous local variation
among lakes in physical, chemical, and  especially biological structure.
      The  National Surface Water Survey (NSWS) conducted by the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) has provided an opportunity to evaluate local variation in biological communities against a
framework of geographic region and water chemistry.  Phase I of the Eastern Lake Survey (ELS-I) of the
NSWS sampled 768 lakes in the northeastern United States during fall turnover 1984.  These lakes were
selected from a map  population of 10,758 (identified from 1:250,000-scale maps), according to a strat-
ified design with equal allocation of lakes randomly chosen from each stratum.  These strata comprised
five geographic regions (Figure 1-1) and three alkalinity classes (acid neutralizing capacity [ANC]  < 100
neq/L; ANC 100-200  neq/L; ANC  > 200 neq/L), as identified by Omernik and  Powers (1982) and
Omernik and Kinney  (1985). Each alkalinity stratum was nested within each region.  Samples were col-
lected at a 1.5-m depth at a central point in each lake and analyzed for a variety of chemical parameters.

-------
 A complete discussion of sampling design, chemical and physical parameters measured, and results are
 presented in Linthurst et al. (1986) and Landers et al. (1988). Field and laboratory analytical methods
 are detailed in Hillman et al. (1986).
      Results from the ELS-I formed the basis of the Eastern Lake Survey - Phase II (ELS-II) sampling,
 which is the focus of this report. The  goals of ELS-II were to examine seasonal variability in water
 chemistry for a representative subset of ELS-I lakes in the northeastern United States and to assess the
 status of biological communities in these lakes.  The only biological component of ELS-II was a sampling
 of zooplankton communities during the summer. This report examines the zooplankton data in detail
 and considers the physical and chemical data only to the extent that it relates to the biology. A
 complete discussion of the ELS-II design is provided in Thornton et al. (1986); only a brief summary is
 provided here.

 1.1  BACKGROUND

      ELS-II lakes were randomly chosen from the 768 ELS-I lakes after exclusion of lakes shown in
 ELS-I to possess characteristics of low interest (i.e., cultural  enrichment, surface area > 2,000 ha,
 maximum depth < 1.5 m, ANC > 400 neq/L).  Using a diversive cluster algorithm (CLUSB), the ELS-I
 lakes were classified according to their physical and  chemical parameters. Three distinct clusters of
 lakes were identified along a major gradient of ANC.   For lake selection, these three clusters of lakes
 were further defined  as (1) cluster 1  = ANC < 25 neq/L, (2) cluster 2 = 25 < ANC <
 100  neq/L, and  (3) cluster 3 =  100 <  ANC < 400 neq/L
      ELS-II sampled 147 lakes during mid-summer and again during fall turnover 1986. These  lakes
 represented a stratified random sample of the ELS-I lakes. The  three chemistry clusters defined by level
 of ANC  constituted the strata.  Lakes were chosen as a systemic variable  probability sample, with fixed
 sample  sizes (Thornton et al., 1986).  Before  lake selection, the  lakes in each chemistry cluster were
 sorted by region (major)  and site depth (minor). The goal was for each chemistry cluster to contain 50
 lakes and for all  clusters to have similar yet broad distributions with respect to geography and lake
 depth.
      Table 1-1 presents a summary of the number of lakes in each region and chemistry cluster, and
 the summary statistics of lake depth for each chemistry cluster.  As is apparent from this table, and from
 Figure 1-2, a  broad geographic distribution of lakes was achieved.  Furthermore, the mean, range, and
 distribution of lake depths represented in the  chemistry clusters  are quite similar (a consequence of the
 stratified sampling design).  A complete listing of lake names, identification numbers, geographic loca-
tions, and chemistry clusters is provided in Appendix A for all 147 lakes.
      Of the 147 lakes, only 146 were actually sampled for zooplankton.  In addition, complete chemistry
data were available for only 146 of the  lakes.  Because of the discrepancy caused by the missing data,
analyses of zooplankton patterns were done for 146 lakes,  analyses of chemistry patterns were done for

-------
147 lakes, correlations of zooplankton to most chemical parameters were done for 146 lakes, and com-
parisons of zooplankton to complete suites of chemical parameters (e.g., principal components analysis
[PCA]) were done for 145 lakes.

1.2 ZOOPLANKTON METHODOLOGY

      The objective of the zooplankton sampling was to achieve comparable estimates of community
structure among lakes.  The sampling design of this or any study imposes overall limitations on inter-
pretation of results. The major limitations of this study were the use of a single mesh size, a single
sampling location, and a single sampling date for each lake.  Use of an 80-/im mesh net is a justifiable
compromise for sampling  both large and small  species with moderate efficiency.  Small,  soft-bodied roti-
fers are underestimated with this net, but if abundant in a lake, they will still be caught.  If a smaller
mesh size is used, to improve capture efficiency of small rotifers, capture efficiency of larger species is
reduced. Since large species of zooplankton can be important to aquatic food webs, even in low num-
bers, it was important for this study that a mesh no finer than 80 jum be used to sample the lakes.
      The major focus of this study was to derive robust conclusions regarding variance among lakes
and the relationship of zooplankton to water chemistry, not to evaluate within-lake (horizontal or
seasonal) variability in zooplankton composition.  Among-lake variance, however, can be judged signifi-
cant only when contrasted with some measure  of within-lake variance.  This is particularly evident for
abundance data (whether  by species or body size) that involves a sample splitting and counting error in
addition to lake sampling error. Therefore, each lake was sampled by three separate, vertical hauls of a
net.  These three samples were treated individually throughout analysis and therefore provide a measure
of within-lake (within-site) variance.  We further  analyzed replicate subsamples for evaluation of sample
splitting and counting error.
      Zooplankton were sampled from each of  146 lakes with three vertical hauls of a Wisconsin bucket
net (80-/zm mesh). The net was lowered to 1 m from the lake bottom and pulled toward the surface at a
constant rate of approximately 10 m/min.  The  three tows were made a few meters apart from each
other.  Zooplankton from each net tow were rinsed into separate 250-mL glass jars using deionized
water (3 jars per lake). The contents of each jar was preserved with a buffered sugar formalin solution
(final concentration in the jar was 10% formalin, 4% sucrose, and enough sodium  acetate to give a pH of
approximately 7.5-8.0. Each jar was labeled with the lake identification number, depth of tow, tow
number (1, 2, or 3), date, and time of day.
      The three replicate tows from each lake were analyzed separately.  Each jar was first examined for
taxonomic composition. Individuals were pulled out from the samples and  examined using both a Zeiss
stereoscope and a Zeiss Universal compound microscope.  Examiners attempted to identify all indi-
viduals of Copepoda, Cladocera, Rotifera, and Chaoborus to species level.  Major keys used included
Stemberger (1979), Pennak (1978), Deevy and  Deevy (1971), Edmondson (1959),  and Cook (1956).  In

-------
addition, several minor keys were consulted, including Berner (1982), Megard (1967), and Frey (1980).
For consistency, all taxonomic identification was done by the same person (A. Tessier), although C.
Goulden was consulted regarding several problem taxa.
      In addition to generating a comprehensive species list for each lake, an ocular micrometer was
used to measure the sizes (body length) of each species in each sample.  Generally, several size classes
were designated for each species in each lake.  This sizing step was done separately for each lake; we
did not assume that the size classes for a given species were constant across lakes. Size classes were
designated at 0.1-mm intervals for animals less than 1.0 mm total length, and in 0.2-mm intervals for
larger animals.  For all species, body length was designated as the maximum length minus caudal seta
in Copepoda and minus tail spines  in Cladocera.
      Using the taxonomic and size class listing as a guide, each jar was then quantified for total abun-
dance of organisms in each species and size class.  Generally, if overall densities in the jar were < 300
individuals (excluding nauplii), the entire sample was counted.  Otherwise, the jar was split, using a
funnel splitter (George et al., 1984).  For those jars that were split, approximately 15% were replicated
(i.e., replicate splits were counted).  This replication  allowed estimation of precision for the combined
splitting and counting methodology. Furthermore, since there were three jars for each lake, we were
able to separate the counting  error  from the lake sampling error.
      Samples (or split samples) were dispensed to a  partitioned chamber and counted, using a Zeiss
stereoscope equipped for magnification up to 75X.  All splitting and counting was performed by one
person (N. Roberts).  Count data from a given lake were entered onto count sheets that had the species
and size class listing  for that lake.  These sheets were examined for consistency  and completeness
before computer entry. We used REFLEX (1986) software operating on MS-DOS microcomputers  for
data entry and as a preliminary database manager system.  The following information was entered  into
REFLEX.

      •    EPA-NSL lake identification code
      •    Jar code (3-digit code identifying sample bottle and replicate)
      •    Species identification code (4-digit code,  including  order, family, genus, and species
          information)
      •    Body size code (2-digit code for body length in mm)
      •    Subsample size (fraction of sample actually counted)
      •    Depth of net tow
      •    Lake number (assigned number  1-147) for tracking convenience
      •    Count (number of individuals of each species and size class)

-------
      A separate file contained header information about each lake:  lake identification code, lake name,
lake number, latitude, longitude, state in which lake was located, and chemistry cluster (see Appendix
A).  Raw counts were divided by fraction of sample counted and then divided by depth of tow to give
values of abundance comparable among lakes of different depth.  Units for abundance are thus the
number of individuals per meter of net tow. Data files are currently available on REFLEX for use in rapid
searching and for summarizing and exploring the data.  Data files were exported to SAS (1985)  on a
VAX mainframe computer for final data management and statistical analysis. Some statistical analysis
was also performed using SYSTAT (Wilkinson, 1986).

1.3 DATA FILES

      Because some rare species were found in the initial taxonomic examination of samples, but were
not abundant enough to be counted after sample splitting, we created a  new data set in which we arbi-
trarily set the abundance of such rare species at 0.01/m/net tow.  The original data set was left
untouched.  Next, two broadly different data sets were created from this  new file.  One file was based on
taxonomy (species) and the other was manipulated to generate more reduced data sets.  In the most
reduced form, all species were lumped into major taxa groups (Rotifera,  Cladocera, Copepoda,  Crus-
tacea, etc.).  In a less aggregated form,  species were lumped into genera and  subgenera categories.
This was largely a functional or ecological  grouping.
      Replicate counts from the same tow and replicate tows from the same lake were kept separate for
analyses of counting and sampling precision and for calculation of species diversity and the proportion
of each species in each tow.  The averages of abundances and proportions of each species over the
three  replicate tows per lake were used for between-lake comparisons of abundance  and  community
structure.  Replicate counts were not used in forming these averages.  A new file was formed containing
these averages. The average abundance over three replicates of species noted in  the original taxonomic
scan but not in the quantitative count of the split samples (i.e., those with abundance arbitrarily set to
0.01 for individual samples) was typically not 0.01; however, the average abundances of these species
was still less than the abundances of species recorded in the quantitative counts. The averages of
diversity indices over the three replicate tows were used  in between-lake comparisons of diversity.
      These files were used as a basis for further analytical work.  Various additional  files were created
in the course of the analysis, for example,  adding factor scores from PCA, or adding  selected chemical
variables. The basic files used in the study were as follows. Species and genus codes used in coding
data and naming variables are documented in Appendix  B.  Descriptions of the formats of these are
contained in Appendix C.

      •   ASCII files:  One record for each species occurrence in  each sample:

-------
         EPATSPE1.DAT and EPATSPE2.DAT: Finalized raw data files, each containing taxo-
         nomic data from half the lakes.

         SIZE.DAT: Finalized raw data file containing size data.

•    SAS files: One record for each species occurrence in each sample (i.e., record structure is
     lake number, jar number combining information on replicate tows and replicate counts,
     species code, and density of that species in the tow, standardized for the volume of the tow,
     and the fraction of the total sample counted):

         SIZE.SSD: Size data

         EPATSPE.SSD: Taxonomic data with species recorded only in initial scan set to 0.01.
         The data from split samples can be recovered by setting all  abundances of 0.01 to 0.

•    SAS files:  Matrix format, with one record for each tow or replicate count (i.e., record
     structure is lake number, jar number, and abundance of each of  the 142 taxa in the tow, with
     0 for species not recorded).  Abundance  of each species formatted as a separate variable:

         EPASP.SSD:  Taxonomic data with species recorded only in initial scan set to 0.01.  The
         data from split sample counts can be recovered by setting all abundances of 0.01 to 0.

•    SAS files: Matrix format with the abundances of species and proportions of species stored
     as elements of two arrays:

         EPASPAR.SSD: Taxonomic data with species recorded only in initial scan set to 0.01.
         The data from split sample counts can be recovered by setting any array values of 0.01
         too.

         EPAMSPAR.SSD: Average of three replicate tows (replicate counts of single tows not
         included), including species recorded only in initial scan. The data from split sample
         counts can be recovered by setting any average abundances < 0.01 to 0.

•    SAS files: Special files used for data analysis:

         EPACGPCA.SSD: Abundance of each of 38 major, nonlittoral genera and species
         groups (average over tows for each lake; variables R1 through R4 for rotifers, CL1
         through CL12 for cladocerans, and COP1 through COP12 for copepods), first 10 factor
         scores from PCA of generic abundances, first 10 factor scores from PCA of chemical
         parameters, and selected chemical variables.

                        2.  OBJECTIVES OF ZOOPLANKTON ANALYSIS

2.1  PRIMARY OBJECTIVES

     This study had two broad objectives.  In addressing both of these objectives, we considered
organism abundance, species diversity, taxonomic composition (at various levels), and body size
structure.
     1.    Zooplankton patterns: We attempted to characterize summer zooplankton communities for
          all lakes in the northeastern United States.  Since the lakes had already been categorized by
          geographic region and water chemistry (as determined from samples taken in fall turnover),
          we examined the ability of these groupings to explain variance in community structure.
     2.    Relationships with chemistry and morphometry: We examined general relationships
          between summer zooplankton communities and summer water chemistry and morphometry,
          focusing particular attention on indices of acidification.
2.2 SECONDARY OBJECTIVES

     Secondary objectives included the following.
     •    Assess functional shifts in zooplankton communities that are consistent with the observed
          structural shifts concordant with acidification.
     •    Evaluate zooplankton sampling and counting precision.
     •    Make recommendations concerning lake selection criteria for future, long-term monitoring of
          lakes.
2.3 STATISTICAL TECHNIQUES

2.3.1  Principal Components Analysis (PCA)

     We used principal components analysis (PCA) to define gradients of community structure and
environmental factors.  The number of taxa and environmental parameters defines a huge number of
correlations. Analysis using each of the taxa and parameters would have been unwieldy and would have
created problems of separating real patterns from spurious correlations. PCA defines a set of principal
components, each a linear combination of the raw variables.  The principal components are orthogonal
and ordered by their contribution to the total variance among all variables. There are as many principal
components as raw variables, but the ordering allows the use of a small subset to encompass  much of
the variation in the original variables. Unless otherwise noted, PCA was performed on the correlation

-------
matrix of the original variables (i.e., the original variables are standardized to unit mean and variance, so
that the analyses do not give disproportionate weight to highly changeable variables.
      In the remainder of the report, principal components derived from a specific PCA are referred to
as factors.  The value of any factor for a given lake is the factor score for that factor and lake. Different
sets of factors are defined by different analyses; these are differentiated by context or by the  use of con-
sistent names for each set of factors.
      PCA was used to describe community patterns in several ways.  The original variables  in each
PCA were:

      •   Abundances (typically log transformed) of the major taxonomic groups (rotifers, cladocerans,
          calanoid copepods, cyclopoid copepods), of genera, or of species.
      •   Proportions (typically arc sine transformed) of major taxonomic groups, genera, or species.
      •   Indices of species richness and species diversity.

Some analyses were done over all zooplankton in a single PCA;  separate analyses were also done over
taxa within each of the four major taxonomic groups.  The components derived in these analyses have
been used descriptively, to summarize patterns of covariance among taxa, and analytically, to serve as
dependent variables in analyses of community differences among the three ANC clusters and along
environmental gradients.
      PCA was also used to define environmental gradients, using the water chemistry and morphometry
data collected in conjunction with the study. The resultant factors were used to analyze environmental
variation within and  between the three ANC clusters, and functioned as independent variables for
analysis of zooplankton community/environmental relationships.

2.3.2  Other Ordination Procedures

      Other algorithms, such as detrended correspondence analysis  (DCA) and canonical correspon-
dence analysis (CCA) were used to define community gradients. These procedures are useful for
describing gradients involving unimodal patterns of taxonomic abundance along environmental gradi-
ents.  These techniques are described in the sections of the report relating to their specific applications.

2.3.3   Tests for Differences between Zooplankton Communities and between Discrete Classes of
       Lakes

      Differences in the abundances, proportions, and diversities of zooplankton taxa among  the ANC
clusters and the geographic subregions were determined using multiple analysis of variance (MANOVA).
This statistical test analyzes differences among classes for a number  of variables, assuming some

-------
correlation in residual variance among the different variables. Analogous tests were performed using
factors defined by various PCAs.

2.3.4 Tests for Relationships among Continuous Variables

      The relationships between zooplankton abundance and environmental conditions were tested
using multiple regression, with the abundance of zooplankton taxa or factor scores from community
analyses as dependent variables, and chemistry factors as independent variables.  Individual chemical
parameters were not used in multiple regressions because of the extensive covariation among groups of
chemical parameters.

3.1 QUALITY ASSURANCE

      Of the original set of 150 lakes, only 147 were actually sampled in summer 1986.  Furthermore,
one of these lakes (1A1-015) was sampled for chemistry but not for zooplankton, leading to a final count
of 146 lakes for this report.  In 2 of the 146 lakes, only 2 net tows were  made. Jar 2 is missing for Lake
97 (1C3-032) and jar 3 is missing for Lake 39 (1D1-056).  One lake was  sampled twice, but on different
dates. Samples 128 and 129 are both from Lake 1B3-052.  This second sampling has been treated as a
different lake in the analyses of zooplankton community structure. The  147 different lakes are  used in
analyses of environmental gradients.  The second sampling of Lake 1B3-052 (Lake 129) is deleted from
most  analyses of zooplankton/environmental relationships.
      All available jars ([147x 3] - 2  =  439) were completely analyzed  without loss. Further, 52 jars
were  counted twice,  using different split subsamples, for an estimate of  splitting and counting precision.
This process involved an overall counting replication of 35% of all lakes  and 12% of all  jars.
      Precision was calculated separately for each species  in each of the 52 replicates, according to the
following formula:
where:    P-t- is the precision estimate for species i in jar j,
          A- and By are the counts of species i in jar j for the two replicate splits, and
          Xjj is the mean count for species i in jar j of the two replicates.

      This precision statistic was averaged across all species in a jar to obtain a single estimate of
precision for each of the 52 replicated jars.  Summary statistics on the 52 estimates of precision are
provided in Figure 3-1 and Table 3-1. In both presentations, precision was calculated including all
species and also excluding species below some variable abundance. In this way, we could explore how
the precision estimate was affected by the rarity of a species. When all species were included, the
grand mean precision was 0.569, whereas if only the more common species were considered (abun-
dance > 8 individuals per meter net tow), a mean precision of 0.336 was achieved.  This range of pre-
cision was somewhat high, but not alarmingly so, considering that both splitting and counting errors
were combined in this estimate.
      To better quantify the variance in abundance attributable to splitting and counting and compare
that to the within-lake (sampling)  and among-lake variance, we performed nested analyses of variance
using Proc Nested  in SAS.  Tables 3-2 through 3-6 present the results of this analysis for total
abundance and for abundance of major taxa. In these tables, CHEMGRP indicates the chemistry cluster

                                              11

-------
(ELS-I designation).  In general, the splitting and counting error (subsample) was about 1% of the total
variance in the samples, and the within-lake variance (samples) was about 5% on average.  It is interest-
ing to observe the low variance attributable to chemistry cluster (zero for Cladocera) compared to the
high among-lake variance.  Generally, these estimates suggest that sampling and subsampling errors
were of negligible consequence in comparisons of zooplankton abundance among lakes. They further
suggest that the major groups of zooplankton were sampled and subsampled with comparable
precision.
      To examine sampling error in more detail, we performed nested analysis of variance on the
species richness data. We calculated species richness in two ways for this analysis. First, we
considered the number of species with abundance >  1 individual per meter net tow (Table 3-7).  Table
3-8 presents results for only the common species (abundance > 10).  These results suggest that
subsampling and sample errors are nearly comparable.  Even when combined, they are not much more
than 10%  of the total variance.  As with abundance, most variance  in species richness was due to
among-lake contrasts; however,  large variation was attributable to chemistry cluster when less common
species were considered (Table 3-7).
      Tables 3-9 and 3-10 explore the partitioning of variance among lakes, samples, and subsamples
separately for each water chemistry cluster.  Tables 3-11  and 3-12 do the same for species richness.  In
general, these results suggest that sampling precision was similar across all water chemistry clusters.
The only appreciable contrast was that the precision of abundance estimation was apparently less in
acidic lakes due to greater variance in the among-samples (within-lake) component.  Species that
dominate  in acidic lakes may exhibit greater horizontal variation.

3.2  DISTRIBUTION OF ABUNDANCE

      As was apparent in Section 3.1, abundance data were log(e) transformed  before analysis.  The
justification for this transformation, as opposed to some other or no transformation, is illustrated  by
power function plots of variance and mean abundance estimates.  The slope of the relationship obtained
by plotting log(e) mean versus log(e) variance for each species or  sample provides information on the
underlying distribution. If the slope is 1, then abundance is Poisson distributed  (variance increases
proportionate with the mean) and a square root transformation is appropriate. If the slope is 2, then  a
logarithmic transformation is suggested.  When the slope is greater than 2, a negative power function is
the appropriate transformation.  Figure 3-2 presents the power function plot of variance to mean for all
species calculated separately for each lake (among-sample, within-lake estimates).  Figures 3-3 through
3-5 present the same information but for each water chemistry cluster separately.  There is consistency
in that a slope somewhat less than 2 but greater than 1.5 is evident in all figures. These plots strongly
suggest that a log(e) transformation would normalize the data.
                                               12

-------
      We also examined the distribution of species abundance among lakes. Figures 3-6 through 3-9
 present the power function plots for among-lake variance versus mean abundance, where each point
 indicates a different species. Species that are very rare in the entire data set show a slope approaching
 4.  However, for the most common species (log mean abundance > 1), a slope of 2 is typical.
      We concluded from  this analysis that a log(e) transformation of the abundance data would  be
 most appropriate in achieving normality. The success of this transformation is illustrated in frequency
 histograms of total abundance after log(e) transformation (Figure 3-10). An even more sensitive tech-
 nique was to examine probability plots of the same data.  We presented this information separately for
 each chemistry cluster (Figure 3-11).  The distribution of abundance was similar in all chemistry clusters.
 With the exception of some skew associated with very low abundance, a normal distribution was  evident.

 3.3  ZOOPLANKTON PATTERNS

 3.3.1 Abundance of Major Taxonomic Groups

      Tables 3-13 and 3-14 present summary statistics for total abundance of zooplankton and abun-
 dance of major taxonomic groups for all lakes sampled. Both transformed and untransformed values
 are given.  On a numeric basis,  Rotifera were dominant, followed by Cladocera and Copepoda (exclud-
 ing nauplii), which were of similar abundance.  Tables 3-15 and 3-16 present the summary statistics of
 the four major groups of zooplankton (rotifers, cladocerans, cyclopoids, and calanoids)  calculated separ-
 ately for each water chemistry cluster.  Box plots illustrate these results in  Figures 3-12 through 3-15.
 There was a weak effect of water chemistry cluster on total zooplankton abundance (Table 3-17; p =
 0.055), which was due to a low total abundance in chemistry Cluster 3 (100 < ANC < 400
 neq/L). However, there was no evidence of strong declines or increases in zooplankton abundance
 with increased lake acidity (Figure 3-12).
      Univariate and multivariate analyses of variance did suggest evidence of changes  in the composi-
 tion of zooplankton communities attributable to water chemistry cluster (Table 3-18).  Examination of this
 table and the figures reveals that, with the exception of  the Cladocera and nauplii, all major groups show
 shifts in abundance across water chemistry clusters.  Large decreases in cyclopoid abundance and large
 increases  in calanoid abundance characterized Cluster 1 lakes.
      Since only weak changes  in overall abundance were detected across chemistry cluster, we  con-
 verted the absolute abundance data to relative (proportional) abundances by dividing through by the
 total abundance in each lake.  Proportions were arc sine square root transformed to help stabilize the
 variance among lakes.  Figures 3-16 and 3-17 illustrate the proportional dominance of each major group
for each chemistry cluster.  Table 3-19 presents the results of univariate and multivariate analyses  of
variance of these major zooplankton groups partitioned  by chemistry cluster.  As was observed for the
                                               13

-------
absolute abundance data, all major groups except cladocerans showed radical shifts in dominance asso-
ciated with water chemistry.
      In order to better summarize variance in composition of zooplankton communities among the 147
lake samples, we performed PCA using the four major zooplankton groups.  PCA was performed both
on absolute abundance (log transformed) and on the proportional abundance data.  For each approach,
we  standardized the variables (zooplankton groups) to zero mean and unit variance (using a correlation
matrix). In this way, each group was treated  as being of potentially equal importance in explaining
overall variation.
      Table 3-20 presents the results of PCA  using the log transformed absolute abundance data. As
shown in Table  3-21, water chemistry was important in explaining variance among lakes in each of the
first three  PCA factors.  The first factor describes variance in overall abundance of cladocerans,  rotifers,
and cyclopoids contrasted to abundance of calanoids.  The second factor was essentially abundance of
calanoids, and the third factor largely describes variance in rotifers contrasted to abundance of
cyclopoids.  All  three factors were apparently influenced by the large shifts in absolute abundance of
calanoids  and cyclopoids that occurred across clusters.
      The PCA  of the proportional data allowed us to focus on compositional variance in zooplankton
communities, independent of variance  in total abundance.  Table 3-22 presents the PCA results for the
major groups of zooplankton. A somewhat different pattern emerged from this analysis than from the
previous PCA. The first PCA factor (explaining 50% of the compositional variance) describes variance in
the dominance of rotifers versus crustaceans. The second factor describes the contrast between cala-
noid dominance and cyclopoid dominance.  This second factor is analogous to the first two factors in
the previous PCA.  Not surprisingly, this second factor is strongly dependent on water chemistry cluster
(Table 3-23).  Calanoids predominate in the Cluster 1 lakes (Factor 2, Figure 3-18).  Of great interest is
the observation that the first PCA factor, clearly the largest gradient in composition of these commu-
nities, is essentially independent of water chemistry. There is  only a slight and nonsignificant tendency
for  crustaceans to dominate in Cluster 1 lakes (Figure 3-18).
      An important question to ask is,  "To what extent are the apparent shifts in zooplankton community
(as described for major taxa) robust with respect to geographic region?"  The ideal would  be for conclu-
sions about the dependence of  zooplankton communities on water chemistry to be independent of geo-
graphic region. This is comparable to a lack of statistical interaction between chemistry and region with
regard to  overall shifts in community.  To answer this question, we performed cross-factored (3 chemis-
try  clusters x 5 geographic regions), multivariate (4 major taxa) analyses of variance.  Strong chemistry
effects were expected (previous analyses), but with this analysis, we could determine whether the chem-
istry patterns we described were independent of region.
      Tables 3-24 and 3-25 present the results of the cross-factored, multivariate analyses of variance for
absolute abundance and proportional  abundance, respectively.  Regardless of analysis, no significant
multivariate or univariate interactions were detected.  Hence, regional and chemical effects on zoo-

                                               14

-------
plankton communities were independent at the level of major taxa.  Strong chemical effects were again
noted (see detailed analysis given previously), as well as a single strong regional influence.  Calanoid
copepods were distinctly less abundant in Region 2 (Poconos/Catskills).  This contrast between Region
2 and the other geographic regions is illustrated in Figure 3-19.  In terms of both absolute abundance
and proportional abundance, there is a relative scarcity of calanoids in Region 2.  It is interesting that the
basic influence of water chemistry on calanoid abundance is not affected by this geographic influence.
Table 3-26 shows how in all regions calanoids become more abundant in acidic (Cluster 1) lakes, but
the overall mean is lower in each cluster of Region 2.

3.3.2 Species Richness

      The number of species in a given lake was not generally predictable from information on abun-
dance.  We considered all species definitely observed in  a lake, regardless of abundance, in our calcu-
lations of species richness (total number of species in sample).  Over all 147 lakes, there was a tendency
for species richness to decrease with species  abundance (r  = -0.157). However, on further examination,
it was found that species richness was negatively correlated with abundance only in the Cluster 1 lakes
(r =  -0.225), and even  in Cluster 1 lakes this relationship was nonsignificant.  In lakes with ANC > 25
jzeq/L (Clusters 2 and 3), there was no relationship between species richness and zooplankton density.
In acidic lakes, large variance in abundance was somewhat attributable to a few species.
      Summary statistics of species richnesses are presented  in Tables 3-27 (all lakes) and 3-28 (separ-
ately by chemistry cluster). As is apparent from these tables, and even more clearly from Figure 3-20,
species diversity of all major groups decreases dramatically  in Cluster 1  lakes. There are, however,
secondary patterns. Observe in Figure 3-20 that rotifer richness displays a tendency to increase in
Cluster 2 lakes compared to Cluster 3 lakes.  In contrast, crustacean richness declines monotonically
with chemistry cluster.
      To better synthesize the species richness data, we performed PCA on the richness of the four
major taxonomic groups (Table 3-29). Factor 1  of this analysis describes variation in richness for all
groups and explains 50% of the total variation. Factor 2, which describes variation in richness of
calanoids, is the only other factor of major significance.  Hence, variation in richness of calanoids
appears to be somewhat independent of variation in richness of the other three major groups.
      Having reduced most of the variation in species richness down to orthogonal factors, we per-
formed a cross-factored, multivariate analysis  of variance to  test for the significance of chemistry cluster
and geographic region in explaining this variation (Table  3-30). As expected from the  univariate plots,
there was evidence for strong influences of water chemistry. The univariate analyses suggest that much
of the chemistry effect  is acting on PCA Factor 1 (richness of all groups).  Interpretation of this chemistry
effect was confounded, however, by a strong  regional effect and a marginal interaction effect.  Interest-
                                               15

-------
ingly, the regional and interaction effects appeared to be driven largely by variation in Factor 2 (calanoid
richness).
      Figures 3-21 and 3-22 illustrate the relationship between PCA Factor 1 and geographic region and
chemistry cluster, respectively. The marginal significance of region in explaining variation in Factor 1
appeared to be due to slightly greater richness in central New England (Region 3) and perhaps Maine
(Region 5). The very strong decrease in richness associated with chemistry Cluster 1 (most acidic) lakes
was much more apparent.  Univariate analysis of variance of Factor 1 revealed no significant interaction
between region and chemistry. The pattern of decreased species richness in Cluster 1 lakes was inde-
pendent of geographic region.
      The significant regional  effect on PCA Factor 2 is illustrated in Figure 3-23.  Region 2 scores
lowest on this factor, which was interpreted as richness  of calanoids. It was interesting that Region 2
was also significantly lowest in abundance of calanoids (see previous analysis of abundance patterns).
Apparently, both richness and abundance of calanoids are reduced in the Poconos/Catskills region.
      Factor 2 also showed a weak interaction between region and chemistry cluster.  Graphical examin-
ation of Factor 2 plotted against chemistry cluster for each region revealed two distinct patterns.  Figure
3-24 summarizes these findings.  In Maine and the Adirondacks (Regions 1 and 5), Factor 2 (calanoid
richness) declined in the less  buffered lakes. In Regions 2, 3, and 4, there was no significant change in
richness across chemistry cluster.
      Summary statistics for species richness of major taxonomic groups calculated separately for each
region are provided in Table 3-31.  Consistent with the interpretations of the PCA Factor  2 patterns,
caianoid richness in the Poconos/Catskills region was half that of the other regions.
      To summarize the species richness analysis, Cluster 1 lakes are characterized by a much reduced
richness of species compared with Cluster 2 or Cluster 3 lakes.  This effect is independent of geographic
region. A strong regional  influence is observed, but is confined largely to calanoid richness.

3.3.3  Species Diversity

      Species richness ignores what can be interpreted as large contrasts in the abundance of various
species among samples.   Species  richness examines the data from a presence-absence view, whereas
other measures of diversity take into account the relative abundance of each species.  Indices of species
diversity measure the evenness of  species abundance within samples, as well as the total number of
species; they may be more sensitive to changes in dominance and evenness among species and  less
sensitive to the occurrence of a few individuals of rare species than species richness.  The following
diversity indices were calculated for the average zooplankton abundances for each lake:
                                                16

-------
               Shannon-Wiener       H =   -S p. *
               Simpson's             S =   S p2
               Ln(Simpson's)         L  =   ln(S)

where:         PJ is the proportion of the ith species in the sample.

      Indices were calculated for each tow; the average of the diversities for each of the three tows per
lake (excluding replicate counts) were used in subsequent analyses.  Indices were calculated for the
entire zooplankton community and for each of the four major taxonomic groups (rotifers, cladocera,
calanoid copepods, and cyclopoid copepods) using proportion of each species over all taxa or propor-
tion over each group. The rare species with abundances arbitrarily set were included in the calculation
of the indices. The contribution of these species to the estimated diversity of a sample is twofold: (1)
the inclusion of sums associated with these species increases the estimated diversity, whereas (2) the
decrease in proportions of other species by inclusion of the rare species decreases the estimated
diversity. Thus for each index, the sum associated with these species is an overestimate of the
contribution of these species to the estimated diversity for each sample. These sums were calculated
for each sample and index and were found to form a very small part of the total sum.  The arbitrary
abundances used for these rare species do not affect the comparisons between lakes.
      Summary statistics for the diversity indices (and species richness for comparison) for all species
and for the four groups (Table 3-32) show that  lakes in Cluster 1 (low ANC) tend to have lower diversity
than lakes in Cluster 2 or 3. The differences between the clusters were generally significant (MANOVA, p
<  0.0001).  With one exception, In(Simpson's) for rotifers, every comparison for all species,  rotifers,
cladocera, and cyclopoid copepods was highly significant (univariate p < 0.0005 unadjusted for the
number of comparisons).  In each of these significant differences, multiple comparison tests (Tukey's
honest significant difference, and the Ryan-Einot-Gabriel-Welsch Multiple F test; SAS, 1985) showed
Cluster 1 lakes to have significantly lower diversity than lakes in Clusters 2 and 3; diversity in lakes in
Clusters 2 and 3 were not significantly different in any of these comparisons. There was a weakly signi-
ficant difference (p < 0.013) in Shannon-Wiener diversity of calanoid copepods. The REGWF compari-
son indicated significantly higher diversity in Cluster 3 lakes than in Cluster 1 or 2 lakes.  There also
appear to be some regional differences in species  diversity; the extent of variation in Shannon-Wiener
diversity among regions and chemistry clusters is compared in Table 3-33.
                                               17

-------
      These results closely parallel the differences in species richness and indicate that the diversity and
richness of zooplankton communities of Cluster 1 lakes are significantly lower than those of Cluster 2
and 3 lakes, with the difference occurring through lower diversities of rotifers, cladocera, and cyclopoid
copepods.
      PCA was performed on the Shannon-Wiener diversity of  each of the four taxonomic groups in
each of the lakes to determine the extent of correlation in group diversity within each lake.  Diversities of
groups that are high or low in the same lakes should correlate together and with the same sign on the
same principal components.  The results indicate that the diversity of the four main taxonomic groups
did not tend to be strongly associated, each with the others, although there is a general trend within
each group for lower diversity in Cluster 1  lakes.  This weak correlation is demonstrated in the plot of
Shannon-Wiener diversity of cladocera versus that of rotifers (Figure 3-25), which shows no strong
correlation.
      To better interpret this variance in diversity, we used principal components to extract simpler
trends in diversity of the four major zooplankton groups.  Table 3-34 presents the results of the PCA for
Shannon-Wiener diversity.  In contrast with the results of the species richness data, the first two PCA
factors were equally important in explaining variation in diversity.  The first factor describes a contrast
between diversity of rotifers and diversity of crustaceans. The  second factor describes a contrast
between the diversity of calanoids and diversity of other zooplankton.  Together these two axes account
for nearly 80% of the diversity variation. The change in calanoid diversity relative to other zooplankton
diversity was noted in the species richness analysis.  The equally strong gradient contrasting rotifer and
crustacean diversity was not observed in the species richness  analysis.  This contrast  suggests that
many rotifer and crustacean species coexist in a large number of lakes, but that there is large variance
among these lakes in the relative diversity of the two groups.
      As shown in Table 3-35, we employed these first two PCA factors in a multivariate analysis of vari-
ance to examine the influences of chemistry cluster and geographic region and their interaction. Chem-
istry cluster was very significant in explaining variation in overall diversity (multivariate test statistic),
whereas region and interaction effects were weaker.  Examination of the  univariate statistics suggested
that PCA  Factor 1  was influenced only by chemistry cluster, and even that is weak compared to the
influence  of chemistry on Factor 2.  Hence, a strong gradient exists among lakes from rotifer diversity to
crustacean diversity; this gradient is largely unaffected by chemistry or region. The one weak chemistry
effect on this gradient is  that in Cluster 2 lakes, rotifer diversity is generally higher than crustacean
diversity (Figure 3-26).
      Diversity Factor 2,  contrasting diversity of calanoids to other zooplankton, showed strong chem-
istry and  regional influences. Figure 3-26  illustrates how the chemistry cluster effect is due to large
decreases in Factor 2 in Cluster 1 lakes (calanoid diversity remains high  despite large decreases in
diversity of other zooplankton).  Figure 3-27 summarizes the location of all  lakes in PCA Factor 1 and 2
                                                 18

space. We have labeled each lake according to cluster type in this figure. Notice that Factor 2 is
important in separating out many of the acidic, Cluster 1 lakes.
      Regional influence was interpreted according to Figure 3-28. The Adirondacks and Southern New
England are distinctly lower in Factor 2 scores than other regions.  Part of the explanation for the low
mean score in the Adirondacks is due to the over-representation of Cluster 1 lakes in this region.  The
interaction effect of chemistry and region was examined by plotting scores for each  cluster in each
region separately. Our conclusion from this examination is that there are differences in the magnitude of
cluster effects depending on region, but the general direction of change is consistent among regions.

3.3.4 Size Structure

      In addition to taxonomic identifications, abundance data were also categorized by  body size.
Tables 3-36 through 3-38 summarize zooplankton abundance for all 147 lakes according to 0.2-mm size
classes; for example, Size Class 1 includes animals < 0.2 mm and Size Class 2 includes animals
between 0.2 and 0.4  mm.  Logarithmic transformation of the data helped stabilize the variance among
size classes, but apparent in Table 3-37 is the large decrease in variance  (and mean) for size classes
greater than Size Class 9 (> 1.8 mm). Also, since the proportional abundance of zooplankton in these
larger size classes was negligible (Table 3-38), we excluded Size Classes 10 and larger from analysis.
      Tables 3-39 through 3-41 present size class abundance as a function of chemistry  cluster. On the
basis of abundance, we recognized  three groups of size classes.  Animals < 0.4 mm were uniformly
very abundant (rotifers, nauplii, and  small cladocerans), followed next by animals between 0.4 and
1.0 mm, which were approximately one-tenth as abundant.  Finally, animals > 1.2  mm were approx-
imately one-one-hundredth as abundant as the small animals.  A Kolmogorov-Smirnov test of distribu-
tional heterogeneity among chemistry clusters was nonsignificant.  However, distributional tests are
relatively insensitive in detecting heterogeneity in subsections of the overall distribution when these
subsections comprise a small number of the overall counts. For example, Table 3-41 suggests increases
in the relative abundance of animals > 1.0 mm with chemistry cluster.  However, since the numbers of
individuals in these size classes were so minor compared to the small organisms, they had little influ-
ence on the overall size distribution.
      We treated each size class as a separate variable in a multivariate analysis of variance to examine
for  heterogeneity among chemistry clusters (Table 3-42). A highly significant effect  of water chemistry
was detected. Univariate tests suggest that this heterogeneity was caused largely by variance in
medium- to large-size crustaceans.
      We used PCA to reduce this variance into simpler factors (Table 3-43). The first four PCA factors
successfully describe > 70% of the overall variance in size  class distributions.  The first factor is a simple
abundance factor; all size  classes loaded positively.  The second factor (accounting  for 20% of the total
variance) describes a contrast between dominance of small (< 0.6 mm) and large (> 1.2 mm) size
                                               19

classes.  The third factor is a contrast of very small (< 0.2 mm) and medium size classes; the fourth
factor represents a contrast between the two largest size classes.
      Summary statistics for the first four size factors were calculated separately for each water
chemistry cluster in Table 3-44.  Multivariate and univariate analyses of variance of these four factors are
given in Table 3-45 to test for both chemistry cluster and geographic region effects.  Strong effects of
chemistry cluster but only weak regional and interaction effects were evident.  PCA Factor 1 was not
influenced by either region or chemistry. Variance in Factor 2 was, however, strongly affected by
chemistry cluster. As illustrated in Figure 3-29, there is a shift in the size structure between Cluster 3
and Cluster 2 lakes.  Cluster 3 lakes are characterized by the presence of large size classes, compared
to Cluster 2 or Cluster 1 lakes.  Factor 3 was the only component in which both regional and chemical
influences were seen. In general, lake scores on Factor 3 increased with chemistry cluster. The more
acidic the lake, the greater the likelihood of dominance by medium size  classes. The interaction effect of
region and chemistry on Factor 3 was caused by lakes in Regions 2 and 4 (the most southern regions)
each  having a distinctly different score for Factor 3 than lakes in Region 1, 3, and 5.  This difference is
illustrated in Figure 3-30. In all regions, Factor 3 scores were lowest in Cluster 1 lakes. The contrast
between Cluster 2 and 3 lakes depends on region.
      To summarize the size structure analyses: There was no evidence of systematic effects of
chemistry cluster or region on total abundance of zooplankton.  The  major component of variance in
size structure among all lakes was a contrast between small and large size classes.  This contrast was
largely independent of geographic region, but was strongly influenced by water chemistry. Cluster 3
lakes were more likely to contain large zooplankton  species than were Cluster  1 or Cluster 2 lakes.
Finally, there was significant variance among lakes in the relative abundance of medium versus very
small sized animals.  This  gradient was influenced  by region, but regardless of region, Cluster 1 lakes
were  characterized by a relatively greater abundance of animals in the medium size classes.

3.3.5 Abundance of Major Genera

      A complete listing of all species found in the samples (147 lakes)  along with summary statistics on
individual species abundance is provided in Appendix D.  Also presented is a separate listing  for each
chemistry cluster.  For several reasons, we decided to lump species into genera or subgenera, depend-
ing on ecological similarity, before analysis. First,  the taxonomic certainty of several species was
unclear (e.g., Eubosmina hagmanni and E. tubicen were not clearly distinguished).  Secondly some taxa
were not identified to species due to lack of adequate adult specimens  (e.g., some Ceriodaphnia and
cyclopoid specimens).  Lastly, attempts to ordinate on the basis of species met with little success due to
the complexity of the species-specific patterns.
      We reduced the data set down to 38 genera by lumping  species into genera and subgenera and
eliminating taxa known  to be benthic or littoral in habitat. The elimination of inappropriate taxa removed
                                                20

-------
only very rare species of Cladocera and rotifers. Taxa such as Chydorus, which were occasionally
abundant in the plankton samples,  were not eliminated. A listing of the 38 genera and summary
statistics are provided in Appendix  E.
      To ordinate the 38 genera, we performed PCA using both absolute abundance (log transformed)
and relative (proportional) abundance.  We also explored results from using both the variance-
covariance matrix and the correlation matrix in PCA.  However, failure to standardize for the variance of
each species (use of covariance rather than correlation matrix) focused  most attention on the rotifers,
due to their large variance in abundance.  Since absolute and proportional data produced similar
interpretations, we presented only the PCA results based on the absolute (log transformed) abundance
standardized  for mean and variance of each species.
      Table 3-46 presents the results of PCA on the 38 major genera. Only 30% of the variance in all 38
genera is accounted for by the first four generic community factors.  These first four factors all show a
significant influence of chemistry cluster in univariate analyses of variance (results not presented).
Factor 1 was correlated strongly with four rotifer genera (Keratella, Trichocerca, Asplanchna, Polyarthra),
three cladocera genera, all of which have small body size forms  (Bosmina, Diaphanosoma, Daphnia par-
vula), and the smallest size copepod (Tropocyclops).  In addition, one calanoid genus (Leptodiaptomus)
loads strongly, but negatively.  Hence,  Factor 1 can be interpreted as a  gradient of lakes ranging from a
diversity of small zooplankton on one end to a dominance of Leptodiaptomus at the other end. The
effect of water chemistry on this factor is  illustrated in Figure 3-31.  Of interest is the observation that this
factor shows a tendency to increase from Cluster 3 to Cluster 2 lakes before decreasing dramatically in
Cluster 1 lakes.
      Factor 2 was defined by the  rotifers Kellicottia and Conochilus, the cladocerans Leptodora and
Sida, two groupings of large-size Daphnia, and the cyclopoids Mesocyclops and Eucyclops.  We inter-
preted this gradient as representing an ecologically different group of rotifers and  relatively large-size
crustaceans,  compared to Factor 1.  In general, Factor 2 scores decreased linearly across the chemistry
clusters (Figure 3-31).
      Factor 3 was defined by four crustacean groups that appear to change dramatically between
Cluster 3 and Cluster 2 lakes (Figure 3-32). These groups were composed of the cladocerans
Diaphanosoma, Eubosmina,  and small Daphnia, and the cyclopoid Mesocyclops.
      Factor 4 was positively correlated with several groups (mainly Leptodora and Sida) that also corre-
lated positively with the second and third factors.  However, the fourth factor was negatively correlated
with several groups (Gastropus, Conochilus, the Daphnia galeata group, and Skistodiaptomus) that  were
positively correlated with the second or third factors. It is likely that the fourth factor represents residual
positive or negative correlation among taxa remaining after their primary correlations were removed.
      Remaining factors individually account for a relatively small among of variance in the data set  and
appear to express single genus trends or pairwise contrasts. We made no intensive  effort to interpret
these factors.
                                                21

-------
      Interpretation of the first three generic factors was aided by examining the occurrence of individual
genera across the three chemistry clusters.  We offer the following interpretation. Cluster 3 lakes are
inhabited by a diversity of rotifers and crustaceans,  but are characterized by large-size species of
Daphnia.  In Cluster 2 lakes, there is a notable reduction  of these large Daphnia and a comparable
reduction in some rotifers (e.g., Kellicottia).  However, other rotifers and  several small-size cladocerans
actually increased in importance in Cluster 2 lakes.  We observe  here that previous results illustrate an
increase in diversity of rotifers in Cluster 2 lakes and a trend toward greater abundance.  One  genus of
rotifer (Keratella) showed a dramatic increase in abundance in Cluster 2  compared to Cluster 3 lakes.
Also, the major result  of the size structure analysis was a loss of  large-size zooplankton in Cluster 2
lakes compared to Cluster 3 lakes.
      In Cluster 1 lakes, there was a reduction in all genera except the calanoid Leptodiaptomus (almost
entirely the species Leptodiaptomus minutus).  It is interesting to observe that the second major gradient
identified in the size structure analysis was an increased dominance of medium-size (0.6-1.0 mm) ani-
mals in Cluster 1 lakes.  L. minutus was apparently responsible for this size pattern.
      We examined for interaction effects by region and by chemistry cluster by region on the first three
generic  community factors. As might be expected from the previous  regional analyses, there were
strong region influences on the first two PCA factors.  However, there was  no significant interaction
effect of region and chemistry.  We explore  some of these regional effects  in Section 3.3.6.
      To better interpret some of the genera patterns in the data, we  analyzed each of the three major
taxonomic groups separately (rotifers, cladocerans, and copepods).   Since genera within each group are
more comparable in range of abundance, we used the covariance matrix in PCA.  In this way, the results
are affected by differences (variance) in abundance characteristic of each genus; rarer species are less
important to the results.  Tables 3-47 through 3-49 present the PCA results for copepods, rotifers, and
cladocerans, respectively.
      Approximately 75% of the variance in  copepod composition is explained by the first three PCA
factors.  The first factor describes the contrast between Leptodiaptomus (mostly due to L. minutus)  and
the other major copepod genera.  This factor was strongly influenced  by region and chemistry cluster,
but interpretation was clouded by the strong interaction effect (Table  3-50).  Examination of each region
separately  reveals that the effect of chemistry cluster on Factor 1 was similar in all regions except
Region 3 (central New England).   Figure 3-33 shows this contrast.  In  all regions except Region 3, L.
minutus became dominant in the Cluster 1 lakes to the exclusion of most other copepods.  In Region 3,
other copepods (especially Skistodiaptomus and Mesocyclops) remain important in Cluster 1  lakes.
      Copepod PCA Factor 2 describes a gradient of abundance in Mesocyclops,  Tropocyclops, and
Leptodiaptomus.  However, this gradient was independent of water chemistry and geographic region
(Table 3-50). Factor 3 represents a contrast between Mesocyclops and  Tropocyclops abundance.
These two cyclopoid forms differ greatly in size but they also show a  weak tendency to sort out along
                                               22

-------
chemistry cluster.  Tropocyclops was less likely to be present in the more acidic lakes (results not
presented), but this effect was weak and was also clouded by regional effects.
      Nearly 50% of the variance in abundance of major rotifer  genera were accounted for in the first
two PCA factors (Table 3-48). Furthermore, both factors describe gradients in the rotifer data that were
strongly affected by chemistry cluster, with only weak regional influences and no significant interaction
effects (Table 3-51).  Factor 1 describes overall abundance of the major genera of rotifers. Figure 3-34
illustrates how this factor changes with chemistry cluster.  Observe that rotifer abundance increases in
Cluster 2 lakes before a sharp decline in the more acidic Cluster 1 lakes.
      Rotifer PCA Factor 2 contrasts relative dominance of two groups of genera: Kellicottia and
Conochilus versus Keratella, Trichocerca, and Asplanchna.  Figure 3-34 illustrates how Cluster 3 and
Cluster 2 lakes are similar in relative composition of these genera.  However, in  Cluster 1 lakes, the latter
three genera become relatively more important. Factor 2 was also dependent on geographic region
(Table 3-51; Figure 3-35). The most northern regions (central New England and Maine) displayed  higher
mean scores for Factor 2, indicating a greater predominance of Kellicottia and Conochilus relative to
Keratella, Trichocerca, and Asplanchna.
      PCA of the Cladocera accounted for 47% of the variation in the first two factors.  Factor 1 is a
contrast of large Daphnia forms versus small forms (Bosmina, Diaphanosoma, and Daphnia parvula). As
Table 3-52 shows, a weak regional influence on Factor 1 was due entirely to southern New England.
Despite this influence, a strong chemistry cluster effect was obvious and is illustrated for the remaining
regions in Figure 3-36. The loss of large Daphnia  in Cluster 2 lakes compared to Cluster 3 lakes is seen
in this figure.
      Factor 2 from the  Cladocera PCA describes a  contrast of Bosmina versus Eubosmina and Diapha-
nosoma.   It is  interesting that chemistry cluster was not important in explaining variation in this factor
(Table 3-53).  However, geographic region was significant.  Figure 3-37 illustrates how the two most
western regions (Adirondacks and Poconos/Catskills) displayed lower Factor 2  scores,  indicating
increased importance of Bosmina compared to Eubosmina or Diaphanosoma in these regions.

3.3.6 Canonical Discriminant Analysis

      In view of apparent taxonomic differences attributable to chemistry cluster, we decided to use dis-
criminant analysis as a means of evaluating the uniqueness of each cluster.  We performed discriminant
analysis on the size structure, major taxonomic groups, species richness, and genera/subgenera data
sets.  In addition, we examined the use of both absolute abundance and  relative (proportional)  abun-
dance data sets.
      Discriminant analysis of the species richness, major taxa  groups, and size structure was only
partially successful. Only 52% of the lakes could be successfully assigned to the correct chemistry
cluster on the  basis of discriminant analysis of the major taxa groups. Analysis  of size structure data
                                               23

-------
increased the percentage of successful classifications to 63%. A similar classification success was
achieved using only the species richness data (61%).  However, species richness data allowed correct
assignment of Cluster 1 lakes in 88% of the cases.  The dramatic declines in noncalanoid species
richness in the Cluster 1 lakes clearly identify these lakes.
      Although Cluster 1 lakes were easily recognized using only species richness data, Cluster 2 and 3
lakes were not readily distinguished without including more taxonomically explicit data.  By using the 38
genera/subgenera data set, we were much more capable of defining all three chemistry clusters.  Best
results were obtained using the proportional abundance data, although qualitatively similar patterns and
classification success were achieved with the absolute abundance.  Table 3-54 presents the overall can-
onical correlations and taxonomic loadings for the two canonical factors. Table 3-55 summarizes the
separation among the three clusters, achieved from this analysis, by presenting average Mahalanobis
distances from each  cluster to other clusters. Observe that Cluster 1 lakes are a little better defined
(average distance of 1.077  compared to 1.304 and 1.33 for Cluster 2 and 3 lakes, respectively.  How-
ever, the degree of separation of all three clusters from each other suggests a linear ordering to the
clusters, with the distance between Clusters 1 and 2 similar to that between Clusters 2 and 3.
      The degree of  separation of the clusters on the basis of these two canonical factors is illustrated in
Figure 3-38. Observe that canonical Factor 1 was mainly responsible for separating lakes in Cluster 1
from those in Cluster 3. Cluster 2 lakes, however, overlap with both Clusters 1 and 3 along this first
factor.  Factors 1 and 2 together help define Cluster 2 lakes.
      An 82% successful classification of all lakes was achieved from this analysis.  Table 3-56 summa-
rizes the classification of lakes based on the two canonical factors.  Notice that 90% of the Cluster 1
lakes can be correctly identified as Cluster 1 on the basis of this analysis. Only 77% of the Cluster 2
lakes and 78% of the Cluster 3 lakes were successfully classified.
      We attempted  to use discriminant analysis to distinguish among the five geographic regions.
However, as shown in previous analyses, regional influences were relatively weak. Table 3-57 presents
the canonical correlations and loadings on each of the canonical factors.  Consistent with our previous
findings is the importance of contrasts between Eubosmina and Bosmina and between Leptodiaptomus
and other copepods in defining the first three canonical factors. Classification success is summarized  in
Table 3-58.  Overall,  77% of the lakes  are correctly classified as to region in this analysis.  The
Adirondacks (Region 1), with its higher percentage of Cluster 1 lakes, has the highest classification
success (83%).

3.4 PHYSICAL/CHEMICAL GRADIENTS


3.4.1  Description of Chemical Data and Statistical Methods


     The chemistry cluster groups provide a discrete classification of continuous variation in ANC.

Additional information on the relationship between zooplankton and water chemistry was gained through

use of the measurements of chemical parameters. These allow analysis of gradients in ANC, as well as

investigation of contributions of other chemical factors.
     The validated data set on summer water chemistry analyses was used to develop measures of

water chemistry for correlation with zooplankton community structure.  The chemistry data set, named

SUSFIM01,  was provided in SAS format by statisticians at ManTech Environmental Technology, Inc.

(formerly Northrop). We performed PCA to derive six statistically independent components that encom-

pass the major sources of variation in water chemistry across the lakes.  Most of the analysis focuses on

the first four of these factors, which encompass most of the total variance and which are interpretable in

terms of the original variables.
     The chemistry data consisted of measurements taken at a single site, near the deepest part of

each lake.  Measurements were taken at one or more depths  at each site as follows.


     •   The full set of chemistry measurements was taken  at one or two depths at a single site within
          each lake.  In shallow water (< 3 m), only one depth, 1.5 m below the surface, was used.
          Measurements were taken at 0.5 m below the surface in one lake of 1.1  m maximum depth.
          In stratified lakes, the full set was measured at 1.5  m below the surface and at the middle of
          the hypolimnion. In unstratified lakes, measurements were taken at 1.5 m below the surface
          and at 1.5 m above the bottom.

     •   Profiles of temperature and conductivity were taken at a series of depths 1  m apart, from
          0.5 m below the surface to 1.1-1.7  m from the bottom.

     •   Dissolved oxygen (DO) was measured at 0.5 m below the surface, 1.5 m below the surface
          (where this depth occurred), and at 1.5 m above the bottom (in lakes > 3 m in  depth).  In
          stratified lakes, additional measurements of DO were taken  at the top of the hypolimnion and,
          where present, at the middle of the metalimnion.

     •   For PCA, variables from the epilimnion sample (1.5 or 0.5 m below the surface) were used.
          In addition, several variables were calculated as measures of vertical heterogeneity; these
          used the conductivity, temperature, and DO profiles. Lake size and site depth (near
          maximum lake depth) were also used  as variables.

      •   The following variables were used in PCA, with the code name in the  SAS data  set given in
          parentheses. PCA was done on the correlation matrix  (i.e., variables were standardized in
          mean and variance), using the SAS algorithm. Unless indicated otherwise, the logarithmic
          transform (Y =  natural logarithm [X+1]) of the raw data was used in the analysis because of
          the nonlinear relationships among many of the variables.

Labile monomeric aluminum (ALDI98).  This was calculated by subtraction from other
measurements.  A few negative values were present; these were set to 0. The log trans-
form was used.

Alkalinity (ALKA11) in units of jueq/L The log transform ln(ALKAH +50) was used.

Calcium (CA98), chloride (CL98), fluoride (FTL98), carbonate (HCO398), potassium
(K98), magnesium (MG98), sodium (NA98), ammonium (NH498), nitrate (NO398), and
sulfate (S0498), all in units of peq/L, log transformed.

Ratio of cations to anions (ANCAT98), log transformed.

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC02), dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC02), dissolved
oxygen at 1.5 m (D0_0151d), iron (FE11), manganese (MN11), total phosphorus
(PTL11), and silica (SIO211), all  in units of mg/L, log transformed.
Conductivity at 1.5 m (C0151D), Secchi depth (mean of depth at disappearance and
depth at reappearance (SECME98), temperature at 1.5 m (T0151D), hydrogen depos
in g/m2/yr (HDEP99), and turbidity (TUR02), all log transformed.
Lake size (surface area in ha; LKSIZ99) and depth at measurement site (DPSIT1D), both
log transformed.  The value for depth (4.2 m) for Grass Lake was inconsistent with the
depths listed for the sample depths (e.g., 4.5 m listed for depth at 1.5 m above bottom);
the depth was considered to be 6.0 m.

Field pH (PH02) and pH at 1.5 m (PH0151D), not log transformed.

Depth of the aerobic layer (named DPAER) and proportion of the anaerobic layer
(named RANAER).  A DO concentration of 1.0  mg/L was considered to mark low oxygen
conditions limiting most zooplanktors.  The depth of the water column with DO > 1.0
mg/L was estimated from the oxygen profiles.  Where no DO values were recorded
< 1.0, DPAER was set equal to the site depth.  In shallow lakes with only one oxygen
measurement, DPAER was also set equal to the site depth. In lakes with some DO
measurement of 1.0 or less, the depth at which 1.0 was reached was estimated by linear
interpolation between the two sample points with DO nearest (above and below) 1.0.
The proportion of the depth of the anaerobic layer to the site depth was defined  as
RANAER; it is 0 for lakes with no anaerobic layer.

Difference in DO between top and bottom of aerobic layer. The difference between
surface DO (i.e., DO 0.5 m below the surface)  and bottom DO was defined as DIFDO.
The bottom DO was set at 1.0 for lakes with low bottom DO.  In lakes with no DO < 1.0,
the DO at the sample nearest the bottom (usually the DO 1.5 m above the bottom) was
used.  For shallow lakes in which only one DO measurement was taken, DIFDO  was set
too.

Difference in temperature between the top and bottom of the aerobic layer (DIFTMP).
This is calculated analogously to DIFDO, with two differences. In some lakes, the
deepest point in the temperature profile was deeper than the 1.5 m above-bottom
sample, and the temperature from the deepest profile was used as bottom temperature.
In lakes with low DO, the temperature at the bottom of the aerobic layer was estimated
from the nearest temperature profile point within the aerobic layer.

Difference in conductivity between the top and bottom of the aerobic layer (DIFCON).
This was calculated identically to the difference in temperature, using the conductivity
profile in place of the temperature profile.

3.4.2 Comparison of Fall and Summer Data Sets

      Correlations of zooplankton abundance with environmental parameters were based on the summer
data set, that is, from one sampling time per lake.  Since the responses of biological communities inte-
grate conditions over periods of time, it is important to determine the robustness of the analysis of
relationships between zooplankton and water chemistry. We analyzed the robustness by comparing the
summer and fall data sets. We studied two related questions:  (1) How similar are the patterns of
covariation between chemical parameters within each of the two data sets? and (2) How similar are
parameter values or gradient positions from the two periods for each of the study lakes? We performed
analogous PCA on each data set, using the same variables, and compared the similarity of the results
(correlations of raw variables with principal components and relative  importance of the principal com-
ponents) for the two data sets.  Secondly, we calculated the correlations between factor scores for each
lake for the two analyses; we also measured correlations between original parameters.  These analyses
indicated very strong correspondences between the two periods in the pattern of covariation of parame-
ters and scores for the various lakes. The few differences between water chemistry measurements from
the two periods could be accounted for by natural seasonal changes or by measurement variance.
      The  sampling design for the fall study differed somewhat from  the summer design. Since fall
sampling was done after lake turnover, less information was gathered on vertical variation.  Temperature,
dissolved oxygen, and conductivity were measured at points 1.5 m below the surface and at 1.5 m
above the  bottom, but detailed vertical profiles were not measured as in the summer. Other chemical
parameters were measured at 1.5 m below the surface.  Forty-nine lakes were chosen to be sampled
three times during the fall; the second sampling corresponded to the survey time of the other lakes.
Three of these could be sampled only once.  For the comparison of  summer and fall data, only one
sampling period was used for each lake:  the single, routine sampling for most lakes, the second
sampling for the multiple-sampled lakes,  and the early sampling for the three remaining lakes.
      Two separate PCAs were performed on the summer and fall data sets, using the same variables
described  in Section 3.4.1, except that variables relating to vertical stratification (DIFTMP, DIFDO,
DIFCON, RANAER, DPAER) could not be calculated for the  fall data  because of the different sampling
procedure. The fall data set contains information on the difference between surface and bottom
temperature, on DO, and on conductivity, but these are not  identical  to the summer variables that
estimate differences between the surface and the bottom of the aerobic region. The stratification
variables were not used in the comparison PCAs for either data set.  Thus, the comparison PCA for the
summer data set differs from that described in Section 3.4.1 in the exclusion of these variables.
Because of missing values for some parameters for a few lakes, the two PCAs were done over slightly
different sets of lakes.
      The  correlation structure of the two chemical parameters was similar for the two periods (Table
3-59). The first four principal components are correlated with the same parameters; in most cases, the
                                              27

-------
magnitude and direction of the correlations are very similar.  In both periods, the first component is a
hardness gradient, correlating positively with alkalinity, conductivity, calcium, DIG, carbonate, potassium,
magnesium, pH, and total phosphorus, and negatively with aluminum. The directions of the gradients
defined by the second component are different (i.e., parameters negatively correlated with the second
component in summer are positively correlated in fall, and vice versa), but the basic correlation structure
of the original variables is the same. For both periods, the second component reflects positive corre-
lations between lake size, Secchi depth, and site depth, and  between color, DOC, iron, turbidity, and
total phosphorus, and negative correlations between parameters in these two groups. The third compo-
nent in both periods is positively correlated with conductivity, chloride, sodium, sulfate, temperature,
manganese, and potassium.  In both periods, the fourth component is positively correlated with calcium,
lake surface area, nitrate, sulfate, and depth.  When stratification variables are included in PCA of
summer data, they tend to correlate with the fourth component; see Section 3.4.1).
      Some differences  in the correlation structure for the two periods are noted (Table 3-59).  Several
parameters (e.g., magnesium, manganese, sodium, nitrate, turbidity, DOC, iron) correlate moderately
with two of the first four components in one of the data sets, but with only one component in the other.
A few parameters (i.e., ammonia, total iron) load strongly on one of the first four components only in one
period.  Dissolved oxygen is correlated differently between the two periods.  It was  strongly negatively
correlated with the fourth component in summer,  whereas in fall, it was moderately positively correlated
with the second  component and weakly negatively correlated with the fourth component.  Silicate is also
correlated differently in the two periods.
      The relative importance of the principal components is also similar between the two periods (Table
3-60), with the first component accounting for 28% of the total variation in  the summer and 31% in the
fall, and the first four components accounting for 65% of the variation in the summer and 67% in the fall.
      The factor scores for each lake are also similar between the two periods (Table 3-60) for the first
five components. The correlation coefficient  (R) for the first  component is .96.  The magnitude of the
correlation for the second through fourth varies from .53 to .81.  The correlation is negative for the
second, reflecting the switch in polarity of the gradient in the two periods.  These correlations were
calculated over the 144  lakes for which all values were present in both data sets. Correlations between
original parameters were done over all lakes for which  that parameter was measured for both periods
(usually 144 to 147 lakes). The correlations are also high between the values of the original parameters
for each of the lakes (Table 3-60).  The median correlation for the 26 variables used in the PCA is .82.
The correlations are particularly high (> .95)  for many  of the parameters correlating with the first and
third components (hardness and salinity parameters).  A correlation was also calculated between
DIFTMP (estimated difference in temperature between the surface and bottom  of the aerobic layer) in
summer and the surface-bottom temperature difference in fall; this was moderate (R = .59),  even though
the fall measurements were taken after turnover, which would disrupt temperature stratification.
                                                28

-------
      A few parameters were poorly correlated between the two periods.  Differences between the two
 periods could arise from a number of sources of variation.  These differences may indicate seasonal
 changes in parameter values and patterns of covariation. However, since there is only one value per
 season, other sources of variation (horizontal spatial heterogeneity, short-term temporal variability,
 measurement error) would also contribute to the observed variation. The multiple sampling of some
 lakes in the fall study could be used to determine the relative importance of these sources. However,
 we did not conduct such an analysis, since  it would have been peripheral to the major issue of
 robustness of the environmental gradients used  in zooplankton analysis.
      Dissolved oxygen was not highly correlated between  the two periods. This finding  probably repre-
 sents true seasonal change, since summer values should be strongly affected  by biological processes
 (production, etc.) and summer temperatures, whereas fall values would be affected by fall temperatures.
 Ammonia is poorly correlated and nitrate  is  only moderately correlated; these results may reflect low
 measurement precision or changes in nutrient relationships between summer and fall. As might be
 expected, most of the variables that were not highly correlated between the two  seasons  also showed
 different correlations with other  parameters within each season.
      The correlations between summer and fall scores for  the first four principal components were high,
 as were correlations for individual parameters. For each of the first four components, correlations were
 higher for some of the parameters loading on the component than for the component itself.  For
 example, correlations for alkalinity (.97) and  calcium (.99) were higher than correlations for the first
 principal component (.96), which is correlated with these parameters within each of the seasons. The
 absolute value of the correlation for the second component is .71, lower than that for color (.81), DOC
 (.89), or site depth (.97). The correlation for the  third component (.77)  is lower than that for sodium
 (.95), chloride (.98), or sulfate (.97). Thus, some of the variation in principal component scores probably
 reflects temporal or other sources of variation in some of the constituent parameters.  Because of their
 consistency, some of the original parameters may be more  useful  in defining gradients between lakes
 than the principal components.
      The correlation analysis indicates thai  for most parameters, the position of each lake on environ-
 mental gradients defined by principal components or by single parameters is consistent over seasons.
 In particular, the main hardness gradient  is well defined and stable, as defined either  by the first principal
 component or by some of the original parameters.

 3.4.3  Correlation between Physico-Chemical Parameters: Calculation of Chemistry Gradients
       and Relationships of Gradients to Original Parameters

      The lakes were chosen and placed in  the three clusters on the basis of measurements of ANC
taken in ELS-I studies.  The measurements of alkalinity, calcium, and pH taken during the ELS-II studies
 (Figures 3-39 and 3-40) indicate that the clusters generally separate lakes well on the basis of these

                                              29

-------
parameters, although there was some overlap between Cluster 1 and Cluster 2 lakes at alkalinities
around 0 to 30 peq/L.  Within clusters, lakes were chosen randomly; for example, there was no relation-
ship (Figure 3-41) between chemistry cluster (and therefore alkalinity) and site depth (which is close to
the maximum depth of each lake).  As expected, there was significant variation in parameters within
clusters.  Gradients were defined by PCA to identify correlated groups of parameters (e.g., alkalinity and
pH) that are independent from each other (e.g., alkalinity and lake depth), in order to relate zooplankton
community structure and abundance to the continuous variation in chemical parameters.
      PCA was performed on the 35 variables described in Section 3.4.1.  The first four principal compo-
nents contained 60% of the total variation, and the first eight components contained 77%. The first four
components are interpretable in terms of the original variables and were used as the primary measures
of water chemistry (Tables 3-61 and 3-62). In the following discussion, only relatively large correlations
(absolute value > 0.2, unless otherwise noted) between the original variables (or their log transforms)
and the principal components are mentioned.
      The first component (containing 24% of total variance) represents a water hardness gradient, with
positive correlations with alkalinity, conductivity, DIG,  carbonate, potassium, magnesium,  and the two pH
measures.  Aluminum is negatively correlated (-.19) with this component, reflecting the decrease in
aluminum with increasing pH (Figure 3-42).  The plots of the factor scores versus measured alkalinity
and pH (Figures 3-43  and 3-44) show the relationship between these parameters and the first factor.
The dominance of this component reflects the selection of lakes to span a gradient in alkalinity.  As
expected, this component correlates strongly with the initial clustering (groups 1, 2, and 3) based on
ANC.  Cluster 1  lakes generally had PRIM values < 0; Cluster 2 lakes generally had PRIN1 values
between -2 and 2; Cluster 3 lakes had PRIN1  values > 0.
      The second component (containing 16% of total variance)  can be considered a measure of dys-
trophy. It is positively correlated with lake size (Figure 3-45), Secchi depth, top-bottom temperature
difference, site depth  (Figure 3-46), and depth of the  aerobic layer.  It is negatively correlated with color
(Figure 3-47), DOC, iron, phosphorus, and turbidity.  Thus, high values represent deep, clear lakes with
low iron and phosphorus concentrations and a deep aerobic layer.
      The third component  (containing 12.5% of total variance) can be considered  a salinity gradient.  It
is positively correlated with  chloride (Figure 3-48), sodium, and sulfate, as well as conductivity,
temperature, and hydrogen  deposition.  It is negatively correlated with the anion/cation ratio.  Most of
the lakes with high values for this component are near the coast (coastal Maine, Massachusetts,
Connecticut, and Rhode Island), whereas most of the interior  lakes (e.g., Adirondack lakes)  have low
values, indicating that the salinity represents oceanic deposition. Figure 3-49 shows the relationship
between chloride and distance from the coast (DISM99 from the chemistry data set); since most of the
missing values represent interior lakes for which no distance was calculated, the figure underestimates
the strength  of the relationship.  Road salting could contribute to the gradient (e.g., in interior lakes).
                                                30

-------
      The fourth component (containing 7.7% of total variance) can be considered a measure of stratifi-
 cation and vertical heterogeneity. It was positively correlated with the difference in temperature and DO
 (see Figure 3-50) and negatively correlated with the difference in conductivity (reflecting greater con-
 ductivity in deeper water).  It was positively correlated with site depth and proportion of the anaerobic
 layer to total depth.  This component reflects the greater opportunity for heterogeneity in deeper lakes.
 This pattern is reinforced by the way DIFTMP, DIFDO, DIFCON, and  RANAER are calculated:  in shallow
 lakes with only one sample point, DIFTMP, DIFDO, DIFCON, and RANAER are automatically set to 0.
      PCA was also performed using different sets of chemical parameters (e.g., without the four
 parameters defining vertical heterogeneity  and the aerobic/anaerobic layer) and with different transfor-
 mations of some variables. These had some effect on the results, but the basic patterns were similar:
 the parameter loadings on the first three factors were similar; the first component was always  a  hardness
 gradient.  In some analyses, the relative importance of the dystrophy and salinity gradients varied; that
 is, in some versions, the salinity gradient was the second factor.  The higher factors of the final PCA
 (e.g., the fourth) were strongly correlated with the vertical heterogeneity parameters; obviously, higher
 factors in models without these parameters differ.  In general, these various analyses indicate  that the
 gradients defined by the environmental parameters are robust with respect to the precise details of the
 PCA.
      For ease in graphical display,  indices were defined based on the values of the first four  principal
 components for each lake:

                      Index                  Value of Principal Component
                        0                        < -4.0
                        1                        -4.0 to  -2.0
                        2                        -2.0to-1.0
                        3                        -1.0 to  1.0
                        4                        1.0 to 2.0
                        5                        2.0 to 4.0
                        6                        > 4.0

The values of these indices are  plotted on  schematic maps of the study lakes to indicate possible
regional differences in water chemistry (Figures 3-51 through 3-54).  For comparison, the same maps are
shown  labelled by cluster (Figure 3-55) and subregion (Figure 3-56).  The first component (hardness)
shows some regional differentiation, although a range of values is found within each region (Figure 3-51).
Most of the Adirondacks lakes (Subregion A) have low PRIN1 values, whereas the Subregion B lakes
(southern  New York, Pennsylvania, and New  Jersey) have mainly high values. The other regions have a
range of PRIN1  values.
                                               31

-------
     There is only weak regional differentiation (Figure 3-54) in the second component (dystrophy).
Low values (more dystrophic) are more prevalent in Subregion B (Figures 3-52 and 3-56), whereas high
values are more prevalent in Subregion E (Maine lakes).
     As expected, the third component (identified as a salinity gradient) shows strong regional
differences (Figures 3-53 and 3-56). High values are noted for Subregion D (mainly coastal lakes in
Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island).  High and moderately high values are seen in Sub-
regions  B  (Southern New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey) and C (southern New Hampshire and
southern Maine), and in coastal parts of Subregion E (Maine).  Values are mostly low or moderate in the
Adirondacks and very low in the interior lakes in Maine.
     There is only weak regional differentiation (Figure 3-54) in PRIN4 (depth and vertical hetero-
geneity). Values tend to be low in the interior parts of  Subregion E and the eastern part of Subregion  D
(mainly  coastal Massachusetts lakes), with a range of values in the remainder of the area.

3.5 RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN  PHYSICO-CHEMICAL GRADIENTS AND ZOOPLANKTON

     The  large number of taxa recorded, the number  of chemical parameters measured, and the variety
of types of relationships (linear, unimodal, threshold, etc.) allows a variety of measures of
interrelationship.  The number of possible correlations  can promote spurious correlations.  Six basic
approaches to analyzing zooplankton and water chemistry were used to examine a variety of plausible
relationships:
      1.   We examined the relationship between the major, independently defined gradients of commu-
          nity structure and water chemistry (representing covarying taxa and parameters). The
          principal components (called the community factors) of the generic analysis and the water
          chemistry analysis were used as the major gradients.  These have the advantage of indepen-
          dence, providing robust multiple regressions between components. Detrended correspon-
          dence analysis of the zooplankton communities was also used to define community gradi-
          ents; this may be more effective where species patterns are not monotonic over the
          environmental gradient.
      2.   We examined the relationships between major gradients of community structure and selected
          water chemistry parameters.  This may be advantageous if some of the chemical parameters
          are irrelevant to community structure or if the one-time measurements do not provide reliable
          estimates. The variation in these  parameters affects the overall gradients in chemistry, but
          weakens any relationships between the community and chemistry gradients.  Only a few
          selected parameters (pH, alkalinity,  calcium) were used, to avoid the spurious correlations
          likely with large numbers of comparisons.
      3.   We examined the relationships between individual taxa and major water chemistry gradients.
          These are more easily interpreted in terms of the biology of individual taxa and do not
          depend on the validity of the algorithm for calculating community gradients.
      4.   We examined the relationships between individual taxa and selected water quality parameters.
          These are the most direct type of analyses and the most easily interpreted, but they also

                                               32

-------
          provide the greatest opportunity for spurious correlation.  They are used mainly to
          demonstrate the importance of unimodal responses to environmental gradients and to aid in
          the interpretation of the gradient-based approaches.
      5.   We defined gradients of zooplankton community structure and water chemistry relative to
          each other to maximize correlation between the two types of data. Although potentially the
          most concise and powerful approach to relating the two data sets, this approach is the most
          procedure sensitive.  We used two statistical approaches.  One, canonical correlation,
          appeared to be ineffective because of  prominent unimodal relationships between taxa abun-
          dance and water chemistry gradients.  Preliminary analysis has been conducted using
          canonical correspondence analysis, which is designed to detect unimodal responses.
      6.   We analyzed relationships of species richness and diversity to chemistry gradients and
          parameters.

3.5.1  Relationship between Zooplankton Community Factors and Environmental Gradients

      The first 4 zooplankton community factors (based on PCA  of the 38 genera and species groups)
were regressed against the first 6 chemical factors, using the  maximum r2 improvement procedure (SAS,
1985), which picks the best set of independent variables for models with any given number of variables.
For all four community factors, there was a significant (p < .0001) regression with the first chemistry
factor (hardness).  This chemistry factor was the best variable in  all one-variable models and appeared in
all models with more than one independent variable.  The second chemistry factor was significant in
regressions with the first (p < .0001) and third (p  <  .01) community factors.  The third, fifth, and sixth
chemistry factors  were significant only in regressions with the third chemistry factor. These regression
results are summarized in Table 3-63.  These results support the  earlier finding that zooplankton
community structure is correlated with hardness parameters, and suggest the influence of other
chemical factors as well.  However, despite the significant relationships, model fit was generally poor (<
.13 for single variable models and only .27 for the one significant five-variable  model).  The plots of the
generic factors versus the chemistry factors also demonstrate the relatively weak relationship between
these factors (Figures 3-57 through 3-63).
      Analysis of the relationships of community factors and  individual genera with individual chemical
parameters suggests that the poor model fit results from at least  three causes. First, the chemistry
factors include variation of some parameters of little apparent relevance to community structure, so the
relationship of  community data with  chemistry factors is weaker than the relationship of the community
data with individual parameters. Second, the relationships between the abundance of most genera and
water chemistry are non-monotonic, so the community factor-chemistry factor regressions ineffectively
model the complexity of the relationships. Third,  in many cases,  genera may be abundant only in lakes
with a restricted range of water chemistry conditions; however, these  genera are often absent from lakes
within the suitable range of  chemical conditions.  The first two complications relate to statistical
methodology; the third may be caused by sampling error, but it probably reflects the importance of

                                              33

-------
other factors in determining the occurrence and abundance of the genera.  These complications can be
illustrated by comparing the relationships between community factors, generic abundance, chemical
parameters, and chemical factors.
     The relationships between the community factors and the hardness gradient are shown by the
significant regressions with the first chemistry factor (Figures 3-57 through 3-60).  On the other hand, the
community factors may be related directly to individual  parameters, such as alkalinity (Figures 3-64
through 3-67).  For these plots, positive slopes signify higher abundances at higher parameter levels for
genera positively loading on the community factors (Table 3-46) and lower abundances at higher
parameter values for genera negatively loading on the community factors. These relationships are
tighter than those with the first chemistry factor. The first community factor is seen to consist of genera
with a modal response (Figure 3-64); the first factor scores are highest in some of the mid-alkalinity
lakes, lowest in the low alkalinity lakes, and low in many of the higher alkalinity lakes as  well.
     In contrast, the second community factor shows a more monotonic relationship with alkalinity
(Figure 3-65), with factor scores increasing from low alkalinity to high alkalinity lakes.  The third
community factor (Figure 3-66) also shows a pattern of increasing factor scores in higher alkalinity lakes,
but there is little trend in factor scores over a broad range of alkalinity.  Most of the low  alkalinity lakes
have low third factor scores, whereas most of the  high alkalinity lakes have high scores.  Lakes of
moderate alkalinity are highly variable in the abundance of these genera. Scores on the fourth
community factor (Figure 3-67) are low in some of the lakes with highest alkalinity, whereas there is little
difference over the range from low to moderate alkalinity.
      For three of the four factors, community factor scores are low in low alkalinity lakes.  All four
community factors differ in relative abundance at various regions of higher alkalinity.  Given the corre-
lations between alkalinity and other parameters, similar relationships may be expected between commu-
nity factors and these parameters.  For example, the relationship between the first community factor and
pH (Figure 3-68) shows the occurrence of high factor scores at lakes with intermediate pH; considering
the range of pH among low alkalinity lakes and the range of alkalinity among high pH lakes, the pattern
is similar to that between the first community factor and alkalinity.  As noted above, the  covariation of
many of the individual parameters prevents inference about the relative importance of each parameter in
producing the community factor-parameter correlation, unless there are strong differences in the
strength of the correlations.
      The points in Figure 3-57 through 3-68 are labelled by chemistry cluster for each of the lakes.
These figures demonstrate the clear  differences in community structure among the clusters (see Section
3.3). They also show extensive heterogeneity within the clusters.  Lakes in Cluster 1 are especially
heterogeneous in the second and third community factor scores. The heterogeneity in the second factor
scores appears to be correlated with alkalinity differences within these lakes.  Cluster 3  lakes are
especially heterogeneous in first, second, and  fourth factor  scores. The heterogeneity in fourth factor
scores is clearly correlated with alkalinity differences within  these lakes.  Cluster 2 lakes are very
                                                34

-------
 heterogeneous in community factor scores for all four factors.  Third factor scores appear weakly corre-
 lated with alkalinity differences within Cluster 2 lakes, but the heterogeneity is otherwise unrelated to
 alkalinity.
      We observed significant correlations between the first and third community factors and the second
 chemical factor. However, these relationships are not more easily interpreted in terms of the parameters
 that form the second chemical factor (e.g.,  color, site depth).  Whereas factors  other than the alkalinity
 gradient appear to affect zooplankton community structure, these factors are not identifiable as single
 chemical parameters.

 3.5.2 Relationships between Genera and Environmental Gradients

      Since the first four community factors were significantly correlated with the first chemical gradient
 (interpreted as a hardness gradient), correlations were also expected  between species loading strongly
 on these community factors and alkalinity.  The relationships between zooplankton abundance and alka-
 linity for most common genera show (1) a unimodal response, with each group occurring mainly in a
 specific range of alkalinity, and (2) a variability of occurrence within these suitable ranges. The rotifer
 genera  Trichocerca, Keratella, Asplanchna, and Polyarthra are moderately correlated with the first com-
 munity factor. The abundances of these genera along the alkalinity gradient (Figures 3-69 through 3-72)
 show most occurrences and peak abundances occurring in lakes with low to moderate alkalinity (e.g.,
 0-100 peq/L). For comparison, the relationships between the abundance of Trichocerca, the first
 chemical factor, and the first community factor are shown in Figures 3-73 and 3-74. The occurrence of
 these species in lakes with low to moderate alkalinity is consistent with the relationship between  the first
 factor scores and alkalinity (Figure 3-64), with high scores found mainly in Cluster 2 lakes.
      The rotifer Kellicottia shows a similar  pattern along the alkalinity and first  chemical  gradients
 (Figures 3-75 and 3-76).  However, it is correlated primarily with the second community factor (Figure
 3-77), indicating that, although found in similar alkalinities as the other rotifer genera, it was usually found
 in different lakes within that alkalinity range.
      The cladocera Eubosmina, Diaphanosoma, and Daphnia parvula and the  cyclopoid copepod
Mesocyclops are correlated (negatively) with the third  community factor (Figures 3-78 and 3-79);
Mesocyclops is also correlated with the second community factor.  These are also most  common in low
to moderate alkalinities (Figures 4-80 through 4-87), but within a somewhat different range than the other
 genera.
      The Daphnia galeata group correlates negatively on the fourth community factor.  Unlike most of
the other groups discussed, it showed highest abundances at high alkalinities (Figure 3-88).
      The most frequent and abundant calanoid copepod was Leptodiaptomus. It tended to show a
monotonic relationship with alkalinity and the first chemical factor (Figures 3-89  and 3-90), being  most
                                               35

-------
common at very low alkalinities (i.e., mainly in Cluster 1 lakes).  It was not strongly correlated with any
single community factor, but was weakly correlated with the first and fourth factors.
     The abundances of several genera were also correlated with site depth, which is not highly corre-
lated with alkalinity (Figure 3-41). Keratella, Diaphanosoma, the Daphnia parvula group, and
Leptodiaptomus were rare or absent in deep lakes (Figures 3-91 through 3-94).  A similar pattern is seen
for all rotifers (Figure 3-95). This relationship explains some of the variability of occurrence of these
groups within ranges of suitable alkalinity.
      Plots of both the community factors and many of the individual taxa versus alkalinity formed
clearer patterns than the corresponding plots based on the first chemical factor.  This suggests that
some of the variation on parameters forming the hardness gradient are not as relevant to zooplankton
community structure as alkalinity.  This may result from lack of causal relationship between some
parameters and zooplankton, from measurement errors in these parameters, or from the inadequacy of
the one-time measurement of these parameters for correlation with zooplankton abundance.  This does
not imply that alkalinity is the best parameter for correlation  or that it is the causal basis of the observed
relationships. For example, the concentration of calcium is strongly correlated with alkalinity.
Relationships between abundance of genera and calcium are similar to those described for alkalinity;
however, the correlation between alkalinity and calcium is weakest for high values of both. Many genera
are rare or absent in lakes with high values, so that the differences between the two parameters do not
greatly affect correlations with  genera.
      The unimodal nature of the abundance-alkalinity relationships for many species affects the
calculation and interpretation of the community gradients. For example, the correlation of abundance
between  two taxa with overlapping but distinct modes would be complex:  they would be positively
correlated over the regions in which both occur and in which neither occurs, but would be negatively
correlated over the regions in which only one occurs.  As a  result, each taxon may load on several
principal  components.  Thus, the major community gradients show the general partitioning of taxa
across the environmental gradients and do not indicate the taxon-specific  responses, which are shown
by the single-taxon analyses.
      We also performed multiple regressions using the ordinations of each of the three major
zooplankton groups separately. Principal component Factors 1 through 5 from  the analyses of genera
of rotifers, cladocerans, and copepods, each performed separately, were the dependent variables.  The
first four  physical/chemical PCA factors were the predictor variables. We also included ANC, lake depth,
lake size, and depth of aerobic zone as predictor variables.  These latter variables were included  in an
effort to maximize the chances of achieving a significant relationship between the genera PCA factors
and the environment.
      All significant regressions from these analyses are summarized in Table 3-64.  A significant amount
of variance in the first two rotifer PCA  factors and the first copepod PCA factor was explained by the
predictor variables.  Although also significant, less overall variance in cladoceran assemblages was
                                                36

-------
explained by this approach.  The first four environmental factors, along with ANC, appeared to be impor-
tant predictor variables.  The relative significance of each varied greatly with the dependent variable
being examined. For rotifer Factor 1, environmental Factors 1 and 3 were of  major importance (Figure
3-96).  For rotifer Factor 2, all four of the environmental factors were important. For the copepods and
cladoceran Factor 1, environmental Factors 1 and 2 were of major significance.  Figure 3-97 shows the
relationship between copepod Factor 1 and environmental Factor 1.  For cladoceran Factor 2, environ-
mental Factor 3 was the most important, and for cladoceran Factor 3, environmental Factor 4 explained
the most variance.  Lake depth and aerobic zone size and depth did not make a negligible contribution
to any of the regressions.

3.5.3 Relationship between Species Richness and Species Diversity and  Environmental Gradients

      Species richness and diversity change over the chemistry gradients, paralleling the absence or
rarity of many species at the low and high ends of  the hardness gradients.  Overall species richness
(Figure 3-98) increases steeply from low to moderate alkalinities, and then declines slightly from
moderate to high alkalinities.  A similar trend can be seen from the relationship with the first chemical
factor (Figure 3-99). In addition, there is a weak negative relationship with the third chemistry factor
(Figure 3-100).  Similar patterns were observed for  Shannon-Wiener diversity  (Figures 3-101 through
3-103).  Many of these trends are caused by changes in rotifer richness and diversity (Figures 3-104
through 3-109). Similar, though weaker, trends are also seen for the diversity of calanoid copepods
(Figures 3-110 and 3-111) and cyclopoid copepods (Figures 3-112 and 3-113).  No pattern was seen for
cladoceran richness or diversity.
      We compared the Shannon-Wiener diversity  of each of the four major zooplankton groups to the
physical/chemical PCA factors using Spearman rank order correlation.  PCA  Factor 1 was significantly
positively correlated with cyclopoid (0.365) and rotifer (0.406) diversity.  Calanoid diversity was negatively
correlated with PCA Factor 1  (-0.40).  The only other significant trend was a negative correlation  between
rotifer diversity and PCA Factor 3 (salinity, -0.225).  PCA Factors 2 and 4 had no significant effect on the
diversity of any group.  There was no significant relationship between cladoceran diversity and PCA
Factor 1.

3.6  INDIVIDUAL SPECIES PATTERNS

      Although most of the patterns of zooplankton community structure were apparent at the genera/
subgenera level (presented in Section 3.5), some species distributions enhanced or modified these con-
clusions. We examined most of the major species on an individual basis, but for brevity, we present
only some of the most robust patterns here.  First,  however, it is important to recognize that there is a
fundamental difference between common and rare  species.  We can define the commonness of species
                                               37

-------
either in terms of abundance among habitats, abundance within habitats, or number of occupied habi-
tats. Figure 3-114 depicts a plot of various definitions of commonness against each other.  Each
species (rotifers, cladocerans, and copepods) is represented as a single point in each plot.  There is a
significant correlation between the number of habitats (lakes) occupied by a species and its mean
abundance among all lakes (r = 0.885), or its mean abundance within those lakes it inhabits (r = 0.652).
In short, common species not only are found in many lakes, but also are generally abundant in those
lakes.  It is useful to observe that despite these general correlations, there is still tremendous variation in
the abundance of species inhabiting a certain number of lakes.
      It is easy to identify the common species by scanning the first column of Appendix F.  We
examined  patterns of distribution of each of these common species as a function of region, chemistry
cluster, and physical/chemical gradients (PCA analysis).  Many of the patterns resembled those
observed for the genera/subgenera groupings.  A few species, however, exhibited divergence from their
mean, genus pattern. We present some of those exceptions here.
      Figure 3-115 contrasts the abundance of the two  most common species of Keratella, K. crassa
and K. taurocephala, as a function of the first PCA factor from the physical/chemical ordination  (ANC/
pH/calcium gradient).  Keratella crassa, typical of most rotifers, becomes most  abundant in the Cluster
2 lakes characterized by intermediate scores on physical/chemical PCA Factor 1.  In contrast, K. tauro-
cephala reaches peak abundance in the most acidic Cluster 1 lakes,  represented by negative scores for
PCA Factor 1.
      Figures 3-116 and 3-117 contrast the abundance of Kellicottia longispina and K. bostonensis
along physical/chemical Factors 2 and 4.  There is little difference in  distribution of these two species
along PCA Factor 1 (ANC); both prefer the Cluster 2 lakes.  However, as shown in these figures, K.
bostonensis achieves greater abundance in the more dystrophic and/or the more strongly stratified
lakes compared to K. longispina.
      A final contrast occurs between Trichocerca multicrenis and T. cylindrica (Figure 3-118).  Tricho-
cerca multicrenis appears capable of inhabiting more saline lakes (generally coastal) than T. cylindrica.
      As with the rotifers, few Cladocera species displayed simple monotonic distributions along the
PCA gradients. However, simple  plots of abundance versus PCA factors show evidence of species
having distinctly different ranges of peak abundance, especially with respect to physical/chemical PCA
Factors 1 and  4. Figure 3-119 contrasts two species of Daphnia: D.  galeata mendotae and D. parvula.
Daphnia parvula is clearly more tolerant of less buffered, softer waters than is the larger species, D.
galeata mendotae. Daphnia  catawba broadly overlaps both these species, but in general it is more
intermediate in distribution along PCA Factor 1. This replacement of large Daphnia by smaller Daphnia
and other  species contributes to the observed size structure shift. Another example,  shown in Figure
3-120, is the replacement of large D. galeata mendotae by Bosmina longirostris along the ANC gradient.
      For the cladocerans, distributions observed at the species level were not compromised greatly by
being lumped  into the higher taxonomic groups that we created for the previous analyses. We did need
                                              38

-------
to divide the genus Daphnia into three subgroups in order to maintain the integrity of the responses
displayed by the different species.  Distribution patterns of the cladoceran genera along physical/
chemical PCA factors have already been presented.
      In contrast to the rotifers and cladocerans, several species of copepods exhibited monotonic dis-
tributions across the  major environmental ANC gradient.  Figure 3-121 illustrates the distribution of the
most common copepod, Leptodiaptomus minutus, along  chemistry PCA Factor 1. Observe that this
species, like L leptopus, also shown in this figure,  prefers acidic lakes.  In contrast to these species are
two cyclopoids, Tropocyclops prasinus-mexicanus and Cyclops scutifer, that display a  clear preference
for lakes of higher ANC (Figure 3-122).  In general, cyclopoids were rare in acidic waters.
      There was little indication that physical/chemical PCA Factors 2 and 4 (depth, color, stratification,
etc.) explained much of the distribution of copepod species.  This is in contrast to the rotifers and clado-
cerans, where Factors 2 and/or 4 were important influences on species and genus distributions.  How-
ever, Factor 3 (salinity) was important for several copepod species, with perhaps the greatest segre-
gation observed between the two species of Epischura (Figure 3-123). Epischura lacustris was
restricted to the less  saline lakes, whereas E. nordenskioldi appeared  to prefer the more saline lakes.
Similarly, other species showed salinity preferences, though these were weaker than those specifically
noted.

3.7 CANONICAL CORRESPONDENCE ANALYSIS (CCA)

      PCA proved quite useful in distilling variation within  each of the  major groups of zooplankton  into
simpler factors. In several places in this  report, however,  we indicate  that the patterns of abundance of
many species and genera were better described as bell-shaped (unimodal)  rather than linear or mono-
tonic with respect to  the major physical/chemical gradients.  PCA is most successful with linear gradi-
ents.  Other ordination techniques are available that assume unimodal patterns and attempt to maximize
the spread of species optima in ordination space. We used CANOCO, a FORTRAN program for corre-
spondence and detrended correspondence analysis, to ordinate the major species and  genera  of roti-
fers,  cladocerans, and copepods separately (ter Braak, 1987). Since our major goal was to describe
variation in zooplankton communities in terms  of the major physical/chemical factors, we employed
canonical correspondence analysis  (CCA) as a direct means of relating species abundance patterns to
environmental factors.
      We compared CCA,  detrended CCA,  and redundancy analysis results for each of the major groups
of zooplankton. The  first four PCA factors of the physical/chemical data were treated as the  environ-
mental factors of interest.  Species level data were used, but occasionally, congeners were lumped into
higher groupings,  especially for the  Cladocera.  In all, 30 rotifer, 16 copepod,  and 12 cladoceran
groupings were used. Table 3-65 compares the eigenvalues and  species-environment correlation
coefficients for each analysis for each major zooplankton group.  In all cases, CCA and detrended CCA
                                               39

-------
provided a better fit of species to the environmental factors (larger eigenvalues and larger correlations
between species axes and environmental axes) than did redundancy analysis (constrained PCA).
Hence, a unimodal model is better than a linear model in relating the zooplankton species abundance
patterns to environmental gradients.
      Figure 3-124 presents a plot of the major rotifer species and the four major physical/chemical PCA
factors (environment factors).  The major axes of this  plot correspond to the first two species axes of the
CCA. Table 3-66 presents the correlation coefficients  of these first two species axes to the four environ-
ment factors. These four environmental factors are displayed on the plot as four arrows.  The direction
and length of each arrow represents the direction of change across  the plot, and the strength of gradient
of each of the four environmental factors. Hence, the plot summarizes the distribution of species with
respect to each other and the major environmental gradients.
      Figure 3-124 illustrates some of the major conclusions previously mentioned for the rotifers.
Observe that the first species axis is strongly correlated with the first environmental factor (PCA factor
for ANC, pH, calcium, etc.)  The second species axis  is strongly correlated with Factors 2 and 4 (color,
depth, stratification intensity, etc.).  Most species occur at intermediate levels on the ANC gradient, but
acid loving species like Keratella taurocephala occur toward the 4:00 position.  In  summary, the major
species axis is correlated most strongly with the first environmental factor (PCA Factor 1  = ANC).  The
second major species axis explains only half as much variation  and  is correlated most strongly with
environmental Factors 2 and 4.
      Figure 3-125 presents a plot of the major copepod species and the four environmental factors.
The major species axis is correlated most strongly with the first environmental factor (Table 3-66).
Observe that species such as Leptodiaptomus minutus, whose optima are  in acidic waters, occur to the
extreme left side of the plot. In contrast to the  rotifers, environmental Factors 2 and 4 are not as
important in explaining variance in copepod assemblages.  Rather, the second major copepod axis is
correlated strongly to environmental Factor 3 (salinity).  Observe the extreme separation of the two
Epischura species along this secondary axis.
      Figure 3-126 presents a plot of the major cladoceran genera and subgrouping of Daphnia species.
Species axis 1 of this plot is strongly correlated to the first three environmental factors (Table 3-66),
whereas axis 2 is correlated with environmental Factor 4.  In general, attempts to relate cladocerans to
the environmental factors met with greater success than did the other zooplankton groups (Table 3-65).
Unfortunately, this success  depended largely on two genera, Ceriodaphnia and  Eubosmina, the former
of which was not very common in the samples.  Ceriodaphnia  occurred in lakes having a unique com-
bination of environmental Factor 1 and Factor 3 scores.  Similarly, Eubosmina occurred in a unique
combination of the ordination  space.  The analyses presented in Figures 3-127 and 3-128 ignore Cerio-
daphnia and both Ceriodaphnia and Eubosmina, respectively.  Tables 3-67 and  3-68 present the eigen-
values and environmental correlations for these analyses.  Observe that all four environmental factors are
still important in explaining variation in these  remaining cladoceran groupings (species axis 1).
                                               40

-------
      Although the significant correlations presented in Table 3-66 argue for the statistical significance of
the relationships between environmental factors and zooplankton assemblages, we further tested the
robustness of these relationships by performing Monte Carlo permutation tests for the first species axis
(first eigenvalue) of each analysis (ter Braak, 1987).  In all cases, the first eigenvalue was significant at
the p < 0.02 level.
      In summary, CCA has revealed significant relationships among all four environmental factors and
the pattern of zooplankton species abundance.  It clearly demonstrates that optima for zooplankton
species exist at different positions along the various environmental gradients; gradient of acidity (ANC,
pH, calcium, etc.) is of major importance.

                                     4.  INTERPRETATIONS

      In the analyses described in Section 3, we employed various approaches to examine patterns of
zooplankton assemblages among lakes in the northeastern United States.  We used two fundamentally
different approaches:  (1) analysis of variance,  by chemistry cluster and geographic region, and (2)
ordination, by principal components analysis (PCA) and canonical correspondence analysis (CCA).
      Because lakes were preclassified as to chemistry and region, and because sampling was random
(stratified random) within these groupings, results and interpretations from analyses of variance are valid
in a general sense.  The single most general conclusion of these analyses is that water chemistry
(chemistry cluster) has a large and predictable influence on the composition of zooplankton assem-
blages.  We use the word "predictable" because although  some dramatic regional effects were observed,
interactions of chemistry and region were generally minor, or at worst, were easily categorized. We
emphasize the word "composition," since no significant effects of chemistry on abundance were
observed.
      Cluster 1  lakes (the least buffered) are essentially unique in zooplankton composition even when
very crude  measures of  composition are used.  They are  characterized by increased calanoid abun-
dance and diversity, decreased diversity of rotifers and cyclopoids, and dominance  of a few acid-loving
species.  Discriminant analyses on the basis of size classes or major genera are equally successful in
distinguishing Cluster  1 lakes as unique.
      In composition,  Cluster 2 and 3 lakes overlap much more than either group does with Cluster 1
lakes.  On the basis of general taxonomic groups, it is difficult to separate these lakes. However, large
shifts in the composition of major genera are apparent, and even significant separation in size structure
is seen.  Cluster 3 lakes are more frequently inhabited by large Daphnia species than are Cluster 2 lakes.
Associated with the decreased importance of large Daphnia in Cluster 2 lakes is an increased diversity
and abundance of rotifer species. Several  crustaceans also have their peak abundances in the Cluster 2
lakes, rather than in the  most  buffered Cluster 3 lakes.  However, many of these species are smaller in
size than the Daphnia forms, which are much scarcer in Cluster 2 lakes.  As a consequence, the size
structure of Cluster  2 assemblages shifts to smaller forms in comparison with Cluster 3 assemblages.
      Although discriminant analysis was able to achieve  rather good separation of Cluster 2  and 3
lakes, it is apparent that information on the relative abundance of major genera (or species) is needed.
Consideration of size structure or species presence/absence data alone would not  be enough to resolve
chemistry influences in this range of lakes. We emphasize that there is little change in overall diversity
or species  richness among Cluster 2 and 3 lakes; however, the compositional shifts are quite significant.
Further, the size structure shifts are easily understood (causal understanding) as shifts in the  abundance
of particularly common  species or groups  of species. Size structure of assemblages did prove sensitive
to chemistry, but its resolving power appears more limited than species data.
                                               42

-------
      Although regional influences rarely confounded interpretation of chemistry effects, we note that
some of these regional patterns were large and worthy of consideration in the design of future studies.
Of particular interest are differences in central New England copepod assemblages, and the difference of
the Poconos/Catskills calanoid assemblages from those of all other regions.  The east-west segregation
of Bosmina and Eubosmina also is of interest, since these species are taxonomically similar, yet have
very different responses to environmental variables.  There is some suggestion in the data that this
segregation may be related to salinity.
      The second approach of this study was one of exploratory pattern searching, or more precisely,
attempts to relate zooplankton  assemblage patterns to the measured physical/chemical (environmental
parameters.  We used linear models  of PCA, multiple regression analysis, and redundancy analysis, and
unimodal models of correspondence analysis and CCA and their detrended versions. A general conclu-
sion is that regardless of analytical approach, substantial variation  in the zooplankton assemblages can
be significantly explained in terms of simple physical and chemical parameters.  Furthermore, because
the optima for many species are within the range of measured environments, unimodal  models are more
successful than linear models in describing assemblage variation.  This is particularly true for the
Cladocera, which, in contrast to the copepods, were successfully related to environmental variables only
with a unimodal model.
      Results of both linear and unimodal approaches emphasized the importance of chemistry gradi-
ents other than simply ANC (general pH, calcium, ANC gradient).  For copepods,  salinity was of
considerable significance in understanding species distributions. For rotifers, lake depth, dystrophy,
stratification intensity, and turbidity (summarized by environmental PCA  Factors 2  and 4) were also
important. All four of the major physical/chemical gradients were significant in describing variance in
cladoceran assemblages.
      A final conclusion from this study concerns the use of zooplankton in future monitoring of lakes
with regard to chemical impacts.  Sampling and subsampling precision were such that counting error
appeared to  have little influence on among-lake comparisons. In addition, within-lake variation  (among
samples) was small relative to among-lake variation.  In short, zooplankton assemblages are relatively
easy to sample and quantify with precision.  Furthermore, the results of this and previous studies
illustrate that zooplankton assemblages  are very sensitive to water chemistry, and this sensitivity can be
described with enough resolution to allow calibration of the zooplankton gradients to the chemical
parameters.  We have not explored such calibration in this report, but emphasize that it is a logical next
step for use of these data.

                              5. GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

     The most limiting aspect of this report is that fisheries data are not available for these lakes.
Zooplankton assemblages are notoriously sensitive to the impacts of planktivorous fish. We strongly
recommend that future sampling include an effort to quantify fish populations from the standpoint of
intensity of planktivory. Even rank ordering data would be enormously useful.  Along the same lines, it
was apparent that additional biological variables, especially measures of phytoplankton abundance and
type, would have aided in separating dystrophy from eutrophy gradients.  Since the dystrophy gradient
proved important in explaining variation in both rotifer and cladoceran assemblages, we recommend that
future efforts attempt to refine this gradient.
     Many of the chemistry influences on zooplankton assemblages were shown to be independent of
region. We suggest that these gradients  be employed to choose a smaller subset of lakes for longer
term monitoring. Shifts in assemblage structure at the high  end of the ANC gradient (Cluster 2 and 3
lakes) are particularly noteworthy.  The loss of large Daphnia in Cluster 2 lakes needs more examination.
This appears to be related more to calcium changes than to pH, according to summary statistics of
Cluster 2 and Cluster 3 lakes.
     We strongly recommend calibration as a statistical tool, using unimodal models. Even without
fisheries data, CCA was able to find strong associations between the zooplankton assemblages and the
environmental factors. If fisheries data were available,  they could be treated  as a covariate in these
analyses, which should allow substantial predictability of water chemistry from zooplankton samples (or
vice versa).
