Abstract A newly formed reservoir in the southwestern part of the United States was analyzed for man's impact on the eutrophication of the impoundment. The analysis of the 14C net productivity (mg 12C/m2 per day) indicated that the area studied was naturally eutrophic. Significant differences in net production were observed among the sites, as the area where man's recreational activities are highly concentrated had a significantly higher production rate than the other sites investigated. Mean monthly estimate of production for all the sites, and monthly and yearly estimates for the area studied are also included.
