DOI: 10.1002/lno.10673
Abstract: Sustained water level drawdown followed by rewetting has the potential to shift macrophytes from a nutrient sink to a source, but the fate of macrophyte-derived nutrients after rewetting is not well understood. We investigated the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s004420000568
Abstract: Our field observations on submersed macrophytes in the littoral zone of Cayuga Lake, N.Y., USA indicate that the shift in dominance from Myriophyllum spicatum L. to Elodea canadensis Michx. may be explained by the high… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10452-020-09823-4
Abstract: In freshwater ecosystems, macrophyte contribute to habitat heterogeneity with their varying structural forms, ranging from free submerged to rooted species. Macrophytes provide substrates that support fish populations, providing food and refuge from predators, especially in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-018-3525-z
Abstract: We investigated the composition and specialisation of shredder chironomids in an invasive white ginger lily (Hedychium coronarium) and in native pickerelweed (Pontederia cordata) leaves. We assumed that the difference of the chemical compound in macrophyte… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13280-018-1071-6
Abstract: In mid-2004, anthropogenically induced changes in water quality of the Río Cruces wetland, a Ramsar site located in southern Chile (ca. 40°S), enhanced the resuspension of iron-enriched sediments, which were subsequently deposited over the most… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.aquabot.2017.06.002
Abstract: Abstract Trait-based community assembly analysis, which links the plant traits to the variation of community composition along environmental gradients, has potential to improve the understanding of the impacts of eutrophication on macrophytes and responding process.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2019.109475
Abstract: Community-scale impacts of glyphosate-based herbicides on wetland plant communities and the magnitude of those impacts that should be considered biologically relevant are poorly understood. We contrast three different thresholds for setting biologically meaningful critical effect… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoleng.2017.01.027
Abstract: Increases in the intensity of disturbances in coastal lagoons can lead to shifts in vegetation from aquatic angiosperms to macroalgal or phytoplankton communities. Such abrupt and discontinuous responses are facilitated by instability in the equilibrium… read more here.
