Definition of oligotrophic in English English dictionary: being deficient in plant nutrients, such as nitrogen or phosphorus; being deficient in nutrition; Deep, clear lakes with low nutrient supplies that contain little organic matter and have a high dissolved-oxygen level; Clear waters with little organic matter or sediment and minimum biological activity; Waters that are nutrient poor and have little organic production; used to describe clean, relatively unproductive lakes and estuaries having low levels of plant nutrients and algae with high water clarity and dissolved oxygen; having a low supply of plant nutrients; An oligotrophic lake or reservoir is low in nutrients and organic productivity Oligotrophic lakes are usually deep, with nutrient poor sediments, few macrophytes and large amounts of dissolved oxygen; Term applied to a body of water low in nutrients and in productivity Mirror Lake is oligotrophic; refers to a lake that has a low supply of nutrients Oligotrophic lakes have low productivity as a result; A lake condition characterized by a low supply of nutrients and consequent support of very little organic production Dissolved oxygen is present at or near saturation throughout such lakes during all seasons of the year Characteristic of waters that are poor in dissolved inorganic or mineral nutrient materials; refers to water bodies with low concentrations of nutrients; from the Greek for "poorly nourished" Describes a lake with low plant growth and high clarity Oligotrophic lakes contain little organic matter and have high dissolved oxygen content Organic compound - naturally occurring (animal or plant-produced or synthetic) substances containing mainly carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen; Underfed or with low nutrient levels; Oligotrophic waters are nutrient poor; {s} characterized by malnutrition, of or pertaining to inadequate nutrition; (of a body of water) lacking plant nutritious substances and high oxygen content in the deeper parts (Ecology); low in nutrients and in primary production; Descriptive of crystal-clear lakes characterized by cold water fish species, low nutrient content and generally pristine features; one of the four trophic state categories, describes a lake with clear water, low nutrients and few water quality problems; the oligotrophic waterbody is capable of producing and supporting relatively small populations of living organisms (plants, fish, and wildlife); Trophic State Index value below 50; deficient in nutrients needed for plant growth; Describing a body of water in which nutrients are in low supply; lake of low nutrient status, low algae productivity and with adequate oxygen levels at all times; Condition of rivers and lakes that have clear water and low biological productivity (oligo = little; trophic = nutrition); are usually clear, cold, infertile headwater lakes and streams; Having a low supply of nutrients and thus a low productivity or biomass, (see eutrophic); Reservoirs and lakes which are nutrient poor and contain little aquatic plant or animal life; lake that is poor in plant nutrients; generally biologically unproductive (Cole, 1994) Whereas oligotrophic lakes support less biological production, their ecosystems are more biodiverse than nutrient-enriched lakes Precambrian Shield lakes are usually oligotrophic initially, and naturally progress towards eutrophy over time This process is often accelerated by anthropogenic effects (see Eutrophication) Water is usually considered to be oligotrophic if its phosphorus loading is less than 10μg/L; describes a body of water in which nutrients are in low supply ombrotrophic: rain-fed organochlorines: Any of various hydrocarbon pesticides, such as DDT, that contain chlorine orthogonal: at right angles; on an independent dimension Two structures which each express an independent dimension oscillation: 1 a periodic motion backward and forward 2 vibration or variance above and below a mean value oxic: containing oxygen; aerobic Usually used in reference to a microbial habitat P
