Lake Tovel was renowned in the world for the particular reddening phenomenon of its waters due to bloom of a dinoflagellate, Glenodinium sanguineumMarchesoni, which accumulated carotenoids. This phenomenon suddenly ceased in 1964. From the beginning of the XX Century, well known Italian and foreign scientists studied Lake Tovel and its reddening phenomenon and, after 1964, research focussed on the identification of the factors responsible for the ceasing of the reddening. The limnological studies of Prof. Edgardo Baldi of the University of Milan, carried out in collaboration with the Museum of Trento in 1937-1939 led to a first understanding of the reddening phenomenon and were, at that time, one of the major efforts, both scientific and economic, for the understanding of the limnology of a mountain lake. On a preliminary report published on the Journal of the Museum, Baldi pointed on the importance of establishing a limnological station on the shores of Lake Tovel, because this would have allowed to face many issues in the study of mountain freshwaters. Since May 2001, an important Research Project (SALTO / BEST – Blooms and Environment: Science for Tovel) was funded by the Research Fund of the Autonomous Province of Trento for a thorough understanding of the reddening phenomenon and of the causes responsible for its ceasing.
