Book Description

Excerpt from Plant Analysis for Nutrient Assay of Natural Waters Application of the plant analysis technique in evaluating nutrient supplies for aquatic plants would require establishing in laboratory experiments the critical concentration for each potentially growth-limiting essential element in the plant species of interest. The same species then would be collected from lakes and streams, analyzed for various elements, and the concentrations compared with the critical levels. If a plant from the field contains less than the critical concentration of an element, the supply of that element was limiting growth in the environ ment from which the plant was collected. More growth would result if greater amounts of the nutrient could be absorbed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
