| Title | Getting the Dirt on Phosphorus Pollution in Mountain Lakes: Are Rising Soil Temperatures Contributing to Eutrophication in Mountain Watersheds? |
| Creator | Gianniny, Gordon O. |
| Description | Mountain watersheds provide a critical supply of clean water to millions of people around the world. In recent years, evidence of a concerning trend has emerged in these watersheds: rising phosphorus (P) concentrations. P often acts as the limiting nutrient in mountain lake ecosystems, so increasing P availability in mountain lakes and streams has the potential to drastically increase algal growth in these systems. In extreme cases, increasing mountain lake P concentrations may even cause... |
