“…In general, glacier-derived meltwater exhibits higher nitrate concentrations than snowmelt (Hodson, 2006;Wynn et al, 2007;Saros et al, 2010), which in turn leads to more nitrate in primarily glacier-fed vs. snow-fed lakes (Saros et al, 2010;Slemmons and Saros, 2012;Williams et al, 2016;Warner et al, 2017). For example, Williams et al Modenutti et al, 2000;Hodson et al, 2004Hodson et al, , 2005Piwosz et al, 2009;Saros et al, 2010;Slemmons and Saros, 2012;Rose et al, 2014;Salerno et al, 2016), (B) phytoplankton (synthesized from Sterner et al, 1997;Huisman et al, 2004;Mindl et al, 2007;Lami et al, 2010;Slemmons and Saros, 2012;Laspoumaderes et al, 2013Laspoumaderes et al, , 2017, and (C) zooplankton (synthesized from Elser et al, 1996;Sterner and Elser, 2002;Urabe et al, 2002;Laspoumaderes et al, 2013Laspoumaderes et al, , 2017Sommaruga, 2015).…”
