Effects of water temperature on summer periphyton biomass in shallow lakes: a pan-European mesocosm experiment [PDF]
, 2015 Periphyton communities play an important role in shallow lakes and are controlled by direct forces such as temperature, light, nutrients, and invertebrate grazing, but also indirectly by planktivorous fish predation.

Invasive crayfish threaten the development of submerged macrophytes in lake restoration. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Submerged macrophytes enhance water transparency and aquatic biodiversity in shallow water ecosystems. Therefore, the return of submerged macrophytes is the target of many lake restoration projects.

Variability response of aquatic macrophytes in inland lakes: A case study of Lake Nasser
Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Research, 2021 Aquatic macrophytes are plants that live in water or wet soil, grow profusely in lakes and waterways, and provide several ecological benefits. Lake Nasser, an artificial reservoir, has been the most critical element in Egypt’s social and economic ...

Combined stable isotope and gut contents analysis of food webs in plant-dominated, shallow lakes [PDF]
, 2003 1. To determine feeding links between primary producers, invertebrates and fish, stable isotope analyses and gut content analyses of fish were conducted on the components of four shallow, eutrophic to hypertrophic, plant-dominated lakes. 2.
