    The formation of a humic lakes via organic runoff has a dramatic effect on the lake ecosystem. Increases in the lake’s acidity make it difficult for fish and other organisms to proliferate. The quality of the lake for use as drinking water also decreases as the carbon concentration and acidity increase.
