Impact Description | In Kohlman Lake, Minnesota areas with common carp increased sediment mixing depths 2.5 times greater (13.0 +/- 3.7 cm) than areas without common carp. The increase in mixing depth increased the amount of mobile phosphorus available for release by 55–92%, which could negatively affect the efficacy of nutrient management programs. |
