Abstract

We examined the effect of agricultural land use on whole‐stream nutrient availability, biofilm standing crop, and biofilm nutrient limitation and uptake in 21 stream locations in southeastern Idaho. Higher stream water concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), but not nitrate (NO 3 ‐N) or ph...
