Description: This is a map showing Lake Apopka in Orange County, current to 1974. It shows its average altitude, surface area and mean depth below altitude. "Lakes Apopka, Carlton, Beauclair, and Dora are among the 10 most eutrophic of the 104 lakes studied. Eutrophication of a lake is the natural process of enrichment with nutrients. The Oklawaha chain of lakes is a prime example of cultural eutrophication- that is, eutrophication greatly accelerated by certain activities of man." — Florida Bureau of Geology Please see the article Hydrology of the Oklawaha Lakes Area of Florida by P. W. Bush for more information.
