Detritus quality controls macrophyte decomposition under different nutrient concentrations in a eutrophic shallow lake, North China.

Macrophyte decomposition is important for carbon and nutrient cycling in lake ecosystems. Currently, little is known about how this process responds to detritus quality and water nutrient conditions in eutrophic shallow lakes in which incomplete decomposition of detritus accelerates the lake terrest...
