Description BACKGROUND Upper Klamath Lake (fig. 1) was eutrophic when first discovered by non-Indian settlers in the 1800’s; however, in recent years, significant nutrient enrichment has caused a hypereutrophic condition. In the late 1980’s, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Reclamation, University of California-Davis, Klamath Tribes, Pacific Power and Light, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, and U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) began to discuss research and reclamation options to improve...
