Response of aquatic macrophyte biomass to limnological changes under water level fluctuation in tropical reservoirs by E. G. Moura Júnior (4957936)

“…Initially we tested the hypothesis that post-WLF limnological conditions and biomass of macrophytes increase or decrease, depending on the variable or species. We monitored a 4 × 50 m permanent plot, in four expeditions per period (pre- or post-WLF), assessing species biomass and 10 limnological variables. …”
