摘要：

Measurements made in fresh water wetland have shown that temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen and bicarbonate alkalinity in the hyacinth infested area were lower, but dissolved free carbon dioxide concentration was excitingly greater than in the open water area. This extreme hypoxic and hypercarbic condition of hyacinth covered areas was caused by the thick coverage of Eichhornia crassipes which was crucial for the composition of the characteristic flora and fauna. © 1979 Dr. W.
