Ecological stoichiometry deals with the mass balance of multiple key elements [eg carbon
(C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P)] in ecological systems. This conceptual framework, largely …

Periphyton communities have received relatively little attention in lake ecosystems.
However, evidence is increasing that they play a key role in primary productivity, nutrient …

Ecology of Shallow Lakes brings together current understanding of the mechanisms that
drive the diametrically opposite states of water clarity, shown by the cover paintings, found in …

To test the hypothesis that the impacts of grazers on plant species richness reverse under
contrasting nutrient richness, we analyzed unpublished and published data from lake …

Cladophora is found in a variety of marine and fresh‐waters and provides habitat and food
for numerous organisms. It may be the most ubiquitous macroalga in fresh‐waters …

We conducted two experiments to determine the relative effects of herbivory and nutrients on
an algal community in Walker Branch, a stream having effectively two trophic levels: primary …

Nutrient diffusing substrata were used to determine the effect of added inorganic nitrogen
(N) and phosphorus (P) on the development of epilithic and epixylic biofilms in 10 North …

This review summarizes the state of knowledge regarding herbivory in stream ecosystems
by quantitatively analyzing the results of 89 experimental studies published between 1972 …

We investigated the ability of the North Carolina Biotic Index (NCBI) and the
Ephemeroptera+ Plecoptera+ Trichoptera (EPT) index to track an experimental manipulation …

The effects of nutrient ratios on algal community structure and algal growth have been
examined extensively in lakes and marine environments, but rarely in streams. We …
