    Seed bank of Littorella uniflora (L.) Asch. in the Czech Republic, Central Europe: does burial depth and sediment type influence seed germination?

    Littorella uniflora (Plantaginaceae) is a scarce and declining aquatic plant in Europe. Its population has been strongly reduced by changes in fishpond management (eutrophication) in the ...

    Removal of alkali metals and their sequestration in plants in constructed wetlands treating municipal sewage

    This study is aimed at retention of K, Na, Mg, and Ca in two constructed wetlands (CWs) in the Czech Republic, and on the evaluation of particular standing stocks in both above- and belowground plant biomass. ...

    Plants used in constructed wetlands with horizontal subsurface flow: a review

    The presence of macrophytes is one of the most conspicuous features of wetlands and their presence distinguishes constructed wetlands from unplanted soil filters or lagoons. The macrophytes growing in construc...

    Removal of nitrogen in constructed wetlands with horizontal sub-sureface flow: a review

    The paper describes the removal of nitrogen in horizontal sub-surface flow constructed wetlands (HF CWs) for various types of wastewater. The survey includes more than 900 annual means from more than 300 syste...

    Algal Responses to Long-Term Nutrient Additions

    Periphyton is an important part of the food web and is an integral part of the Everglades ecosystem (Wood and Maynard 1974; Browder et al. 1982). During the late summer and fall, thick mats floating at the sur...

    Experimental Assessment of Phosphorus Effects on Algal Assemblages in Dosing Mesocosms

    Periphyton covered by calcareous precipitations in the Everglades is mostly dominated by cyanobacteria (Cyanoprokaryota, blue-green algae). In some areas of the Everglades, diatoms, desmids, and a few species ...

    Macrophyte Slough Community Response to Experimental Phosphorus Enrichment and Periphyton Removal

    In this chapter, we will present evidence that may help in explaining the general pattern of response of wetland macrophyte communities to eutrophication, light, and competition as well as assess changes in pl...

    Plant Community Response to Long-Term N and P Fertilization

    The objective of the Duke N and P fertilizer study in three Everglades plant communities (sawgrass, mixed sawgrass–cattail, and slough) was to determine the long-term (>6 years) effects of fertilizer additions...

    Macrophyte Community Responses in the Everglades with an Emphasis on Cattail (Typha domingensis) and Sawgrass (Cladium jamaicense) Interactions along a Gradient of Long-Term Nutrient Additions, Altered Hydroperiod, and Fire

    Collectively, these studies suggest that multiple factors are responsible for the alteration and maintenance of plant community structure in the Everglades (Fig. 9.1). Historically, the primary factor controll...

    Enrichment Gradients in WCA-2A and Northern WCA-3A: Water, Soil, Plant Biomass, and Nutrient Storage Responses

    Increases in cation (e.g., Ca2+, Na+, and Mg2+) and anion (e.g., Cl? and NO? 3) concentrations have been documented throughout the greater Everglades ecosystem (SFWMD 2004, 2005, 2006). In particular, concerns...

    Removal of Phosphorus in Constructed Wetlands with Horizontal Sub-Surface Flow in the Czech Republic

    The major processes responsible for phosphorus (P) removal in constructed wetlands with horizontal sub-surface flow (HSF CWs) are adsorption, precipitation and plant uptake if the biomass is harvested. The fil...
