Effects of Invasive Watermilfoil on Primary Production in Littoral Zones of North-Temperate Lakes
Diversity, 2020 Species invasions are changing aquatic ecosystems worldwide. Submerged aquatic macrophytes control lake ecosystem processes through their direct and indirect interactions with other primary producers, but how these interactions may be altered by ...

Utilization of fish gut analysis to elucidation of microcrustacean
Journal of Ecology and Environment, 2014 Structural heterogeneity results in different spatial distributions of microcrustaceans. Thus, in ecosystems with excessive macrophyte development, it may be difficult to determine the microcrustacean species composition.

Resistance and reconfiguration of natural flexible submerged vegetation in hydrodynamic river modelling [PDF]
, 2015 In-stream submerged macrophytes have a complex morphology and several species are not rigid, but are flexible and reconfigure along with the major flow direction to avoid potential damage at high stream velocities.

Quantifying measures to limit wind driven resuspension of sediments for improvement of the ecological quality in some shallow Dutch lakes [PDF]
, 2012 Although phosphorus loadings are considered the main pressure for most shallow lakes, wind-driven resuspension can cause additional problems for these aquatic ecosystems. We quantified the potential effectiveness of measures to reduce the contribution of

Potential uptake of dissolved organic matter by seagrasses and macroalgae [PDF]
, 2011 Dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) acts as a large reservoir of fixed nitrogen. Whereas DON utilization is common in the microbial community, little is known about utilization by macrophytes.
