Abstract
Dataset provides dissolved reactive silica concentrations measured in Lake Santo Parmense in period 1972-1974. Water samples were collected by means of a Ruttner bottle at different depths over the whole water column at the point of maximum depth of the lake. Samples were analysed spectrophotometrically according to Golterman et al. (1978).

Method Description
Golterman H. L., R.S. Clymo & M.A.M. Ohnstand, 1978 - Methods for physical and chemical analysis of fresh water. I.B.P. Handbook No. 8. Blackwell. Oxford. (Spatial Scale Description: Water samples were collected at the point of maximum depth of the lake by means of a Ruttner bottle. Samples were collected at the following depths for each year: 1971- april 1973: 0, -5 m, -10 m, -15 m, bottom
june 1973 - 1974: 0, -2 m, -5 m, -10 m, -15 m, -18 m, bottom. Samples were kept refrigerated and transported to the laboratory, where pH was measured by means of a pH meter. Sampling frequency differed among years: 1971: monthly from july to october
1972: once in january and then monthly (occasionally twice a month) from may to october
1973: irregular frequency from january to november (ranging from monthly to three times a month)
1974: monthly from february to october (excluding june).)
