Title Short- and Long-Term Mechanisms for Increasing Inputs of Phosphorus in Mountain Waterbodies of Northeastern Utah, USA
Creator Scholz, Jessica
Description Phosphorus is an essential nutrient that allows life in water to flourish, but changes in phosphorus supplies are not well understood in remote watersheds. In mountain environments, remote watersheds contain critical high-quality water supplies and unique ecosystems, but excess phosphorus can diminish water quality by producing unfavorable aquatic species. Therefore, observed trends of increasing phosphorus concentrations in remote lakes and rivers in the US over the last two decades are a...
