In recent years, the scienti c study of complexity in ecological systems, including lakes, has increased the understanding of a broad range of phenomena, such as diversity, abundance, and hierarchical structure. In Ecology, the study of complexity as property have been As result  different approximations (Relations are developed....     Aspects of study:Relations  of EC with ecological integrity, diversity and resilience EC ( General) as ecological Indicator: Exploration of its potential useful. Description of spatial, temporal, structural or spatial temporal signatures of an ecosystems.)  In spite of the valuable efforts carried out in order to understanding, clarigy and measuring complexity in ecological systemas, more explorations are requiered. Boarding complexity aspects in ecology, it is important to consider that ecological systems exhibit properties like emergence, self-organization, and life. Lake dynamics generate novel information from the relevant interactions among components. Interactions determine the future of systems and its complex behavior. Novel information limits predictability, as it is not included in initial or boundary conditions. It can be said that this novel information is emergent since it is not in the components, but produced by their interactions. Interactions can also be used by components to self-organize, i.e. produce a global pattern from local dynamics. Interactions are one the most important reason for complexity generation.
