Risk and mechanisms of phosphorus release at the sediment–water interface of lakes in cold and arid regions during non-frozen seasons
In recent years, the eutrophication of lakes has accelerated in cold arid regions; the release of nutrients from sediments is an important contributor. The sequential extraction method, high-resolution peeper ...
