Abstract
From multiple regression analysis of data from Central Swedish lakes, we suggest that the peak areal cover (hectares) of emergent vegetation is predictable from lake surface and area, mean depth, and annual mean total nitrogen concentration in the lake water. The data also suggest that the percent cover of emergent macrophytes is predictable from mean depth and total nitrogen. However, the factors influencing floating-leaved macrophyte cover are not as clear.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
