Relative effects of nutrient enrichment and grazing on epiphyton-macrophyte (Zostera marina L.) dynamics
Dissolved nutrient concentrations and invertebrate grazing activity regulate epiphytic biomass. Because epiphyton may limit light and carbon at leaf surfaces and the consequent productivity of submerged macrophytes, factors which influence epiphytic biomass may indirectly affect macrophyte abundance...
