• Historical, macrofossil, and pollen records of aquatic plants were compared. Paleolimnological can track temporal changes vegetation. Hydrology nutrients shaped the past macrophyte composition succession. Century-scale on suggest lake management decisions. Diverse communities represent an essential component healthy shallow ecosystems, information in macrophytes abundance is crucial for resto...

A simulation model has been developed that focuses on the ability of two competing submersed macrophytes, meadow-forming and canopy-forming, to maintain their biomass under different environmental conditions. Vallisneria americana (American wildcelery) serves as the example for meadow-forming plants and Stuckenia pectinata (until recently known as Potamogeton pectinatus or sago pondweed) for ca...

Human society strongly depends on vital functions and services of natural ecosystems (IPBES, 2019; Zedler & Kercher, 2005). These include food production, fisheries, recreation, drinking water supply, energy generation carbon storage (Clarkson et al., 2013; Consequently, do not only have intrinsic cultural values but are increasingly requested to provide multiple simultaneously, including econo...
