Land use and stormwater management govern lake water quality

This reasoning chain explains how changing phosphorus inputs—driven by agricultural intensification, urbanization, and stormwater pond management—impact lake phosphorus cycling and water quality. It integrates the effects of management practices and land cover on nutrient retention and downstream outcomes.
