Abstract:
During 2000, stillwaters monitored for the forth year of the Stillwaters Monitoring Programme were Hatch Mere, Marbury Big Mere, Comber Mere, Tabley Mere, Tatton Mere and Melchett Mere. Algal, zooplankton and water chemical samples were taken on all meres. Surveys of Tabley Mere and Comber Mere continued on from last year when water quality concerns were highlighted. Continuous monitoring in Oak Mere, including water level data continued in 2000. Fish surveys were carried out in Tatton Mere and Comber Mere. Tabley Mere survey was
abandoned due to the awkward bathymetry of the mere. No invertebrate samples were taken in 2000 due to lack of resources. The areas analysed were: Hatch Mere, Marbury Mere, Comber Mere, Tabley Mere, Tatton Mere, Melchett Mere and Oak Mere.
