Article: Research data from Radboud University update understanding of freshwater research.

" Softwater lakes are generally dominated by slow growing, small, isoetid plant species that are adapted to the carbon- and nutrient-limited conditions in these lakes. We investigated the strategy of a fast growing species, Sparganium angustifolium, for occupying softwater lakes," scientists writing in the journal Freshwater Biology report.

"A field survey was carried out in Norwegian carbon-limited Isoteto-Lobelietum softwater lakes to compare abiotic conditions at locations with and without S. angustifolium. In addition, long term abiotic changes (1995-2008) related to the sudden establishment of the species on experimentally limed plots were studied. Based on ...
