Excerpt from Report to the Superintendent, Vol. 1: The Response of the Everglades Marsh to Increased Nitrogen and Phosphorus Loading; Nutrient Dosing, Water Chemistry, and Periphyton Productivity
This report considers the consequences of increased nutrient loading upon nutrient uptake and changes in periphyton biomass and primary production. Subsequent reports assess the effects of increased nutrient loading upon macrophyte communities. Bacteriological activity. And the response of periphyton community structure.
During the course of this study. A flow-through system was utilized in which three experimental channels. Open at both ends and oriented to the direction of flow. Were constructed within the Shark River Slough. Control sites were immediately adjacent to the experimental channels. Continuous nutrient additions were made at the upstream end (0 m) of the experimental channels and water chemistry analyses and biological determinations were undertaken at station locations 10 m. 20 m. 35 m. 65 m (channel B only). And 95 m downstream.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the consequences of nutrient enrichment in the Shark River Slough located within Everglades National Park. By examining nutrient uptake and changes in periphyton, the book assesses the effectiveness of current water quality standards in protecting both the water quality and the natural biological communities found there. The research occurs at a significant time as increasing human-induced nutrient loading threatens various aquatic ecosystems worldwide. The author's findings demonstrate that even minor increases in nutrient loading can trigger major changes in periphyton and macrophyte biomass and community structure, which in turn, may potentially alter higher levels of ecosystem organization. This important study fills a gap in our understanding of the impacts of nutrient loading on flowing water systems and subtropical ecosystems, providing valuable insights for water resource managers and environmental scientists working to protect these critical ecosystems.
