Floodplain lakes share characteristics of both deep and shallow lakes throughout any given year. Seasonal fluctuations in their water depth drive changes in nutrients and total primary productivity, which directly and indirectly affect submerged macrophyte biomass. To investigate how water depth and environmental variables affect submerged macrophyte biomass, we surveyed six sub-lakes in the Poyang Lake floodplain, China, during the flood and dry seasons of 2021.

By the methods of space-time substitution and PVC tube closed-top in situ incubation, this paper studied the soil mineralized-N content, N mineralization rate, and N uptake rate in Phyllostachys edulis-broadleaf mixed forest (PBMF) formed by P. edulis expansion and its adjacent evergreen broadleaf forest (EBF) in Dagangshan Mountain of Jiangxi Province, China. There existed the same spatiotemporal variation trend of soil total mineralized-N (TMN) content between the two forests.
