Abstract
⺠Atrazine has been reported to increase periphyton growth via indirect mechanisms. ⺠Atrazine commonly co-occurs with high nutrient runoff, which also increases growth. ⺠We examined effects of atrazine and phosphorus (P) on algae in a 63-d microcosm study. ⺠P reduced the apparent effect of atrazine on photosynthetic outputs (e.g., DO). ⺠No treatment-related effects on phytoplankton or periphyton biomass were observed.
