Submerged plants key to cleaning polluted water bodies, study finds!
Submerged plants like Vallisneria natans can help clean up polluted water by absorbing nitrogen and phosphorus. A study found that when these plants were exposed to high levels of nutrients, they were able to remove over 95% of nitrogen and phosphorus from the water. This shows that Vallisneria natans can be effective in improving water quality by absorbing excess nutrients.
