Estimating the contribution of carnivorous waterbirds to nutrient loading in freshwater habitats (2007, background): “habitats, their joint P contribution may significantly affect the primary production of the often P-limited wetlands impacting wetland nutrient budgets at a landscape scale (Karl, 2000; Wassen et al., 2005).”
Alkaline phosphatase activity and regulation in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre (2010, background): “DIP concentrations have been shown to be limiting in various marine systems, and many oligotrophic habitats seem to be particularly prone to severe P-limiting conditions (Karl 2000).”
