Abstract: Restoration of submerged macrophytes is widely applied to counteract eutrophication in shallow lakes. However, proliferation and accumulation of filamentous algae (possessing free-floating and periphytic life forms) hamper growth of submerged macrophytes. Here, we explored factors… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/fwb.12940
Abstract: Shallow lakes may play an important role for the nitrogen (N) balance in drainage basins by processing, transferring and retaining N inputs. An increase in the frequency of storm-induced short-term N pulses and increased water… read more here.

Abstract: Aquatic weeds such as muskgrass (Chara spp.), water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), water lettuce (Pistia stratiotes), hydrilla (Hydrilla verticillate), filamentous algae (Lyngbya wollei), and duckweed (Lemna minor) thrive in farm canals within the Everglades Agricultural Area… read more here.
