Manipulation of Sediment Nitrogen via Dewatering and Rehydration: Implications for Macrophyte Control and Nitrogen Dissipation

Abstract

This technical note examines macrophyte growth response to changes in sediment nitrogen (N) concentrations due to sediment dewatering and rehydration. Results of this study may be used to better understand sediment N changes as a result of a lake drawdown and have implications for control of macrophyte growth.
