The responses of phytoplankton to nutrients vary for different natural bodies of water, which
can finally affect the occurrence of phytoplankton bloom. However, the effect of high …

Excessive nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) loading of aquatic ecosystems is a leading
cause of eutrophication and harmful algal blooms worldwide, and reducing nutrient levels in …

Lake Taihu (Taihu) is the third largest freshwater lake in China and an important drinking
water, fishing, and tourism resource for Jiangsu Province. Recent toxic cyanobacterial …

An increased nutrient loading drives eutrophication of lake ecosystems. Nutrient loading has
two different origins:(1) internal loading due to nutrients release from sediments and (2) …

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of limiting nutrients and the N: P ratios
on the growth of phytoplankton (mainly cyanobacteria) in a shallow hypertrophic reservoir …

Reducing nutrient input in aquatic ecosystems has been widely recognized as a way to
mitigate eutrophication. The paradigm of nutrient limitation by N and P is pervasively …

Traditionally, nitrogen control is generally considered an important component of reducing
lake eutrophication and cyanobacteria blooms. However, this viewpoint is refuted recently …

Lake Taihu has attracted attention worldwide because of its extensive cyanobacterial
blooms in the warm season. A better understanding of nutrient controls over phytoplankton …

Nutrient enrichment facilitates algal outbreaks in eutrophic shallow lakes. To further
understand the influence of various inorganic nutrient forms on cyanobacterial blooms, a …

An annual investigation on phytoplankton communities was conducted to reveal the effects
of nutrients on phytoplankton assemblages in Lake Taihu, East China. A total of 78 …
