“…They act physically on the environment by hampering wave action and water flow and stabilizing sediment (Brix, 1997;Madsen et al, 2001) in addition to strongly affecting nutrient cycling and the physico-chemical characteristics of both water and sediment Barko et al, 1988;Carter et al, 1991;Spencer et al, 1994;Wigand et al, 1997;Havens, 2003). Aquatic vegetation also interacts closely with other members of aquatic communities, supplying food, shelter, and refuge for a diversity of organisms such as fishes, invertebrates, and waterfowl (Brönmark, 1989;Posey et al, 1993;Chick & McIvor, 1997;Figuerola et al, 2003;Pelicice et al, 2005;Rybicki & Landwehr, 2007).…”

“…An investigation in Norway showed that the mass invasion of Elodea canadensis during summer time increased the water column pH inside E. canadensis stands to 8.5 and even 10.2 (Mjelde et al 2012). Carter et al (1991) also reported that overlying water of the submerged plant beds elevated pH to the maximum 9.5 in August. It was because strong photosynthesis could influence the carbonate ionization balance resulting in the increase in concentration of hydroxyl ions.…”

“…Many waterways in Florida have naturally low flow rates (Odum, 1957) that are undoubtedly further reduced when infested with dense infestations of submersed weeds such as H. verticillata. These flow rates, combined with intense sun, produce surface temperatures that may exceed 45°C (Carter et al, 1991;J. Cuda, University of Florida, Gainesville, personal communication). Although flies can tolerate a range of temperatures, 100% larval mortality occurred at 36°C (Buckingham and Okrah, 1993).…”
