Neue UFZ-Studie in Nature Communications: #Seen kippen nicht nur um, wenn sie zu viel Phosphat abkriegen - #Stickstoff ist ein entscheidender Treiber für das Algenwachstum in flachen Seen (und die meisten Seen weltweit sind flach) => Höchste Zeit für mehr Schutz von Seen und Flüssen vor Düngerresten aus der Landwirtschaft

Consistent stoichiometric long-term relationships between nutrients and chlorophyll-a across shallow lakes - Nature Communications

Nutrient limitation is a well-known control of phytoplankton growth, but predicting specific responses in individual lakes based on nutrient data alone has proven challenging. Here, the authors show that long-term signals of chlorophyll-a dynamics in shallow lakes can be captured based on stoichiometric effects of N and P concentrations along a continuum of total N:total P ratios.

Managing urban development could halve nitrogen pollution in China - Nature Communications

Here the authors demonstrate how managed urbanization in China could halve reactive nitrogen pollution to both the atmosphere and water resources. Investing 61 billion USD could provide 245 billion USD in benefits, while contributing to multiple SDG goals.
