Potential Submerged Macrophytes to Mitigate Eutrophication in a High-Elevation Tropical Shallow Lake—A Mesocosm Experiment in the Andes

Submerged macrophytes promote water clarity in shallow lakes in temperate regions via zooplankton refuge, allelopathy, and nutrient competition with phytoplankton, thereby increasing zooplankton grazing. However, in high-altitude Andean ecosystems, these interactions in shallow lakes have received f...
