An abstract of a study by Kohler and Shatwell providing arguments for the prevalence of nitrogen limitation of polymictic lakes during summer and demonstrate expedience and sustainability of N load reductions to fight harmful algal blooms is presented. The biomass-specific frequency of heterocysts i...
