| Title | Seasonal Dynamics of Nutrient Limitation in a Tropical High-Altitude Lake (Lake Titicaca, Peru-Bolivia): Application of Physiological Bioassays |
| Creator | Vincent, W. Wurtsbaugh, Wayne A. Vincent, C. Richerson, P. |
| Description | Five types of physiological assay were applied to samples from three sites in Lake Titicaca, Peru- Bolivia (16”s) to assess the magnitude and seasonality of N or P limitation of algal growth. Phosphorus appeared to be in abundant supply relative to growth requirements throughout 1982. Alkaline phosphatase levels were low (~3 nmol substrate converted.cc.g-‘Chl aeliter-l), 3zP0.,3- turnover times were always long (> lo3 min in the main body of the lake), and little or no phosphorus was... |
