An evaluation of ecological stoichiometry in pelagic systems

Ecological stoichiometry is the study of the balance of chemical substances in ecosystems. In freshwaters, research has focused on how the ratios of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus in organisms and their environment affect ecosystem processes. Because autotrophs have variable stoichiometry, particul...
