The objectives were to identify the main sources of chemical variability in mountain lakes and develop tools to extrapolate our results to regional lake populations. The most remarkable result was an inverse relationship a between DOC and nitrate concentrations. The concentration of nitrate is determined by both atmospheric N deposition and the processing capacity of the catchments (i.e. N uptake by plants and soil microbes). The inverse relationship between DOC and nitrate concentrations in lakes might be the result either of independent processes active in the catchment soils and acting in an opposite sense, or a direct interaction, e.g. limitation of denitrification by DOC availability.
