Abstract:
Die Kleinseen in Pfynwald-Gebiet zeigen charakteristische Unterschiede bezüglich ihrer Morphologie und der chemisch-physikalischen Charakteristika. Die Zusammensetzung der Kieselalgen-Populationen des Aufwuchses sind vor allem abhängig vom Chemismus des Gewässers. Es wurden interessante Beobachtungen zur Besiedlung neuer Substrate gemacht.

Leading questions:
Are there differences between neighbouring small lakes?
(a) differences in morphology, size etc.
(b) differences in chemical and physical characteristics
(c) differences in the periphyton communities, especially diatoms

How precisely can one characterize the small likes by the periphyton communities?

Which dynamic of the periphyton communities is recognizable?

How fast is the colonization of new substrates by diatom species?
