Restoration of shallow lakes by nutrient control and biomanipulation--the successful strategy varies with lake size and climate

Major efforts have been made world-wide to improve the ecological quality of shallow lakes by reducing external nutrient loading. These have often resulted in lower in-lake total phosphorus (TP) and decreased chlorophyll a levels in surface water, reduced phytoplankton biomass and higher Secchi dept...
