“…[13][14][15][16][17] Although constructed wetlands are recognised as reliable technology for wastewater treatment, [18,19] the technology has only recently begun to be widely implemented for mitigation of non-point source pollution such as agricultural run-off. [10,11,15,17,20] Previous research has addressed the use of vegetated free water surface constructed wetlands to remove nutrients of various types including N [6,12,17,21] and P. [11,15,17,[21][22][23] In addition, other research has focused on the use of free water surface constructed wetlands to remove pesticides of various types including herbicides and insecticides either singly or in mixtures. [10,13,16,24] However, more complex mixtures of nutrients and pesticides in combination, as well as comparisons between nutrient only and pesticide only conditions have been less well studied.…”
