dc.abstract.enCatchment land use/land cover (LU/LC) is one of the crucial determinants of the water quality and condition of biota in aquatic environments. The aim of this study was to investigate how LU/LC in lake catchments influences the physicochemical and biological indicators used to assess the ecological status of lakes in Poland and whether these relationships vary depending on the spatial range. We analysed the catchment LU/LC forms of 114 flow-through lakes in three spatial ranges, i.e., a 100 m-wide buffer strip (BUF100), the direct catchment (DIR), and the total catchment (TOT). The water quality and biological variables were derived from the state monitoring conducted in the period 2012–2013. The redundancy analyses (RDA) and the Monte Carlo permutation tests depicted that the strength in explaining the parameter followed the order: TOT > DIR > BUF100 for physicochemical parameters, DIR = TOT > BUF100 for phytoplankton indicators and BUF100 > DIR > TOT for macrophyte indicators. In the direct and total catchment, the proportion of arable lands was decisive in shaping the macrophyte and physicochemical status, while the proportion of artificial surfaces affected phytoplankton status. It was also found that forested buffer zones promoted good macrophyte ecological status. The other types of LU/LC, i.e., meadows and pastures, wetlands, and surface waters exhibited little to no or marginal impact on the physicochemical and biological indicators, regardless of the spatial scale considered. Our results contribute to the rational planning of land development in lake surroundings, including the design of protected areas for inland waters.
