Herbaceous vegetation under temperate climatic conditions generally shows nitrogen- or
phosphorus-limited plant growth, which creates conditions for a high botanical diversity. Is …

Water quality in many stream catchments and river basins is severely impacted by nutrient
enrichment as a result of agriculture. Water-resource managers worldwide are considering …

Background Wetlands are species-rich habitats performing valuable ecosystem services
such as flood protection, water quality enhancement, food chain support and carbon …

This paper contains the first of three parts of a study of the ecology of Ruppia-dominated
communities. After introductory remarks on the problematic subdivision of the genus Ruppia …

The bryophyte genus Sphagnum occurs as a dominant vegetation component in peat-forming
bogs and fens worldwide. The peat mosses are known to have physical and chemical …

(1) The release of inorganic nitrogen and phosphorus in ten mires in The Netherlands with
different vegetation and hydrology was measured by incubating soil in situ in polyethylene …

This paper gives some introductory information on the use of wetlands for wastewater
treatment. It focuses mainly on the functioning of constructed wetlands, in particular surface-flow …

Although 80% of their original area has been lost in the past millennium, Europe's wetlands
still cover large areas in the northern part of the continent. Most original wetland types are …

This paper reports on patterns in plant‐mediated processes that determine the rate of
nutrient cycling in temperate fens and bogs. We linked leaf‐level nutrient dynamics with leaf‐litter …
