The data obtained suggests that the lake remains a water body of oligotrophic type. Lake Khubsugul is actually unaffected by anthropic load. Thus, only natural and climatic factors are responsible for the changes in its structural and functional parameters. Further monitoring is essential in solving the problem of a possible realignment of ecosystems under conditions of global climatic changes. %8 2000-06-01
