The role of sediments in nutrient loadings in Cootes Paradise / T. Mayer, F. Rosa and M. Charlton.: En36-518/03-002E-PDF
"Wetlands are important links between the terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem as they have an ability to attenuate nutrients and toxicants to receiving waters and provide a habitat for many species of fauna and flora. Many Great Lakes wetlands receive a broad variety of contaminant loads from various sources, including agricultural and urban runoff, municipal waste waters and effluents from Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs). In spite of their nutrient attenuation capacity, excessive loadings of nutrients have disrupted their natural cycles, resulting in accelerated eutrophication"--Introduction, page 1.
