The role of sediments in nutrient dynamics in hyper-eutrophic marshes of Point Pelee, Ontario, Canada / by T. Mayer, C. Ptacek and L. Zanini.: En13-5/97-143E-PDF

"Elevated concentrations of nutrients, resulting in prolific algal growth, were reported in some open-water ponds in one of the finest surviving wetlands on the Lower Great Lakes, Point Pelee National Park, Ontario, Canada.
