The Role of Aquatic Macrophytes in Nutrient Flow Regulation in Lotic Ecosystems /

Aquatic macrophytes in an agricultural drainage ditch were able to accrue large amounts of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) during the growing season and held these nutrients until tissue breakdown in autumn. Total nutrient accumulation by aquatic macrophytes in a 1.4 km (8612 m2) ditch was 49.0 kg N...
