| Impact Description | In mesocosm treatments with silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), microzooplankton(< 200 pm), phytoplankton (> 20 pm), total phytoplankton biomass, and net primary productivity were significantly reduced. This indicated silver carp could be used to manage blue-green algae biomass and eutrophication. |
