Experimental Effects of Lime Application on Aquatic Macrophytes: 1. Growth Response Versus Concentration

Abstract: PURPOSE:The research reported herein investigated the effects of a range of lime (as calcium hydroxide; Ca(OH) 2 ) dosage levels on the growth of Sago pondweed in outdoor experimental mesocosms.BACKGROUND: Lime (CaCO 3 and Ca(OH) 2 ) application has been used primarily as a lake rehabilitation technique for limiting algal growth by controlling phosphorus availability in the water column and its release from the sediment (Prepas et al. 1990). At supersaturated concentrations, calcium co-precipitates with phosph… Show more
