Abstract:Low light intensity and high sediment organic matter (SOM) conditions coexist recurrently in aquatic ecosystems, which affects submerged macrophyte re-habilitation. In this greenhouse study, four light intensity levels (10% [natural light intensity], 30%, 60%, and 100%) and three initial SOM loads (11% [measured as the loss on ignition], 17%, and 25%) were applied to explore the effects of their interactions on the growth of Vallisneria natans (V. natans). Two-way ANOVA revealed the effects of interactions bet… Show more
