Nitrogen and phosphorus limitation of phytoplankton growth in New Zealand lakes: Implications for eutrophication control [PDF]
, 2010 We examine macronutrient limitation in New Zealand (NZ) lakes where, contrary to the phosphorus (P) only control paradigm, nitrogen (N) control is widely adopted to alleviate eutrophication.

Eutrophication and the macroscope [PDF]
Hydrobiologia, 2009 It is important to view eutrophication as an increase in the supply of organic matter to an ecosystem rather than as a simple problem of nutrient pollution. This emphasizes that eutrophication is a fundamental change in the energetic base that may propagate through the system in various ways and produce a variety of changes.
