Agricultural, urban and industrial activities have dramatically increased aquatic nitrogen and
phosphorus pollution (eutrophication), threatening water quality and biotic integrity from …

Cyanobacteria can form dense and sometimes toxic blooms in freshwater and marine
environments, which threaten ecosystem functioning and degrade water quality for …

Algal blooms constitute an emerging threat to global inland water quality, yet their spatial
and temporal distribution at the global scale remains largely unknown. Here we establish a …

The concentration of dissolved oxygen in aquatic systems helps to regulate biodiversity,,
nutrient biogeochemistry, greenhouse gas emissions, and the quality of drinking water. The …

Understanding and managing the susceptibility of lakes to anthropogenic eutrophication has
been a primary goal of limnological research for decades. To achieve United Nations' …

Harmful cyanobacteria are a global environmental problem, yet we lack actionable
understanding of toxigenic versus nontoxigenic strain ecology and toxin production. We …

Irrigated agriculture accounts for∼ 90% of anthropogenic freshwater consumption, is
deployed on 22% of cultivated land, and provides 40% of global food production. Expanding …

Large shallow lake refers to a polymictic system that is often well mixed without stratification
during summer. Similar to a small and deep lake, a large and shallow lake has a high …

There is increasing concern that accelerating environmental change attributed to human-
induced warming of the planet may substantially alter the patterns, distribution and intensity …

Abstract This global spatially explicit (0.5 by 0.5 degree) analysis presents the nitrogen (N)
and phosphorus (P) inputs, processing and biogeochemical retention and delivery to …
