Effect of a size-selective biomanipulation on nutrient release by gizzard shad in Florida (USA) lakes

Effect of a size-selective biomanipulation on nutrient release by gizzard shad in Florida (USA) lakes

Although fish removal for biomanipulation is often highly size-selective, our understanding of the nutrient cycling effects of this size-selection is poor. To better understand these effects, we measured nutrient excretion by gizzard shad (Dorosoma cepedianum) of differing sizes from four c...
