Consumer-Driven Nutrient Recycling in Arctic Alaskan Lakes: Controls, Importance for Primary Productivity, and Influence on Nutirient Limitation
In lakes, fish and zooplankton can be both sources and sinks of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) through the consumption of organic N and P, and subsequent excretion of bioavailable inorganic forms. These source/sink dynamics, known as consumer-driven nutrient recycling (CNR), may, in turn, control t...
