Beschreibung:Morphometric data together with some selected physical, chemical and biological features of the Laguna Grande de Chirripó, a small high mountain lake of glacial origin located in the Cordillera de Talamanca of Costa Rica, are discussed. The lake has a water temperature oscillating around 10 C, a very low concentration of dissolved solids and a gross primary productivity of 0. 15 g C m-2 d-1. The maximum productivity value recorded was found at a depth of 5 m. Levels above this are probably subjected to strong light inhibition.
