| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Mass generation of floating-leaved plants can cause light attenuation and poor oxygenation in a pond. Consequently, rare submerged plants are reduced, and thus, aquatic flora may be weakened. The weakening mechanism of aquatic flora has not been clarified. In this study, field observations and laboratory experiments were conducted on Lake Nanko of Shirakawa City, Fukushima Prefecture, and a part of the mechanism was clarified. The results are as follows: 1）light in water attenuates when the density of the floating-leaved plant is high. Therefore, it is hypothesized that the growth of the submerged plant is obstructed by the mass generation of the floating-leaved plants; 2）wind-induced flow attenuates when the density of the floating-leaved plant is high. The effect of this phenomenon on dissolved oxygen was not confirmed; and 3）the bottom layer of summer was poor oxygen water. The cause was breath and rot of the hydrophyte.
