Why do many lakes in South Dakota turn green in late summer?
Later in summer, South Dakota usually does not get much rain, so the water in the lakes do not get 'stirred' or have fresh water added so that fresh oxygen does not get mixed into the water. Then, the phosphorus in the sediments at the bottom of the lake are released, causing algae to grow. It is this algae growth that makes the lakes "turn green".

Fresh Water Usally meaans good, clean, and healthy, water.So if your asking why theres not much its simply because people have to clean the water you use because we get water from lakes and lakes come from the ocean. The only reason the ocean is so clean with all the animals living in it is because of the salt.[That's why pool people are starting to put salt instead of chlorine in pools.] And the lakes don't have salt in them so they are pretty dirty it takes a while to clean the water you use that's why theres not enough fresh water.
