  251. minimal. No evidence of encystment as a means of&#13;
  252. survival during winter was observed. A seasonal study&#13;
  253. in one of the lakes, Ace Lake, revealed that M. rubrum&#13;
  254. was present throughout the year at abundances&#13;
  255. ranging from 1]104 to 3.5]105 cells l~1. During the&#13;
  256. winter period, when little light penetrated the lakeÕs&#13;
  257. ice cover, cells were most common immediately under&#13;
  258. the ice at 2 m, where cell numbers were typically&#13;
