Phytoplankton and zooplankton species composition and abundance were examined in The Loch, a subalpine lake in Rocky Mountain National Park during the winter seasons of 1987-88 and 1988-89. The Loch was ice covered from early November until early May during both years. The lake was sampled at a single sampling location twice monthly. Samples were collected from three discrete depths in the water column for the duration of ice cover. Data presented in this report include taxonomic determination and abundance of phytoplankton and zooplankton.
