Description: Lake Süßer See is a eutrophic to hypertrophic medium-sized lake (max. depth 8.2 m, mean depth 4.3 m; volume 11.6 Mio. m³, surface area 268 ha) which receives water from the south-eastern foothills of the Harz Mountains and a former mining area for copper shale (Mansfelder Land) by the stream “Böse Sieben” (Becker et al. 2001; Lewandowski et al. 2003). The lake basin represents a sinkhole that has been formed by dissolution of underlying Permian evaporates (Wennrich et al. 2007). High P load by the inflows are a result of extensive fertilizer application in the catchment further supporting the high trophic state of the lake. Although phosphorus removal by aluminum sulfate application between 1976 and 1992 reduced internal P loading from the sediments high external, diffuse-source TP loads prevented substantial water quality improvements (TPlake about 200 µg/L) and annually occurring algae blooms of cyanobacteria persist. This publication series includes datasets collected on Lake Süßer See during the Inland Water Remote Sensing Validation Campaign 2017 (Bumberger et al. 2023).
