The main diet of herbivorous waterfowl, such as swans, coots, and ducks, consists of submerged macrophytes. The grazing by waterfowl below the surface may affect the biomass and species composition of the submerged plants. The vegetations is, however, also affected by e.g. water turbidity, periphyton growing on the plants and water temperature. This literature study aimed to assess the impact of waterfowl on the biomass and production of submerged vegetation in shallow, eutrophic lakes and how this may vary with the season. The review showed that the density of submerged vegetation biomass varies during the seasons but tends to be highest in the summer. Waterfowl density is usually highest during autumn migration. According to experimental ...
