Short summary
We disentangled two major factors that affect lake water quality, namely the meteorological conditions and loading from the catchment. In previous studies, distinction of these two major factors was not always sought. However, from the management point of view, quantifying these two factors may be of interest, for example because the managers may want to evaluate the effectiveness of an abatement plan that reduced catchment loading despite the unfavourable meteorological conditions.
