Shifts in algal dominance in freshwater experimental ponds across differing levels of macrophytes and nutrients
Abstract Excess nutrient loading into ponds and shallow lakes can lead to undesirable algal growth and a shift to a turbid state. Previous work has suggested that such an ecosystem transition may be mediated by the biotic constituents of the habitat and food web; however, earlier experiments have be...
