The presence, abundance, composition, and growth of periphyton are controlled or
influenced by 5 broad classes of environmental variation: disturbances, stressors, resources …

We studied 10 first‐order Icelandic streams differing in geothermal influence in separate
catchments. Summer temperature (August–September) ranged between 6 and 23° C. 2 …

Pharmaceutical and personal care products are ubiquitous in surface waters but their effects
on aquatic biofilms and associated ecosystem properties are not well understood. We …

Freshwater algal growth is often limited by the availability of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), or
both nutrients (NP). For over 30 years, investigators have conducted nutrient‐diffusing …

We examined the effect of agricultural land use on whole‐stream nutrient availability, biofilm
standing crop, and biofilm nutrient limitation and uptake in 21 stream locations in …

Low academic performance in high school mathematics is a deeply-rooted concern in the
Philippine education system. With the implementation of the K to 12 Education program, this …

We examined the importance of temporal variability in top–down and bottom–up effects on
the accumulation of stream periphyton, which are complex associations of autotrophic and …

Nutrient limitation plays an important role in sha** community structure and ecosystem
processes in aquatic environments. Many types of nutrient diffusing substrata (NDS) have …

We explored N2 fixation and alkaline phosphatase activity (APA) in periphyton from a N-
limited stream ecosystem by coupling measurements of these processes with nutrient …

Nutrient limitation assessment is important to understand stream ecosystem functioning.
Aquatic primary producers are often limited by nitrogen, phosphorus, or both, as assessed …
