Ditches and lakes on the island of Goeree-Overflakkee located in the southwestern parts of the Netherlands currently have little to no macrophyte growth. Together with two consultancies (B-ware and Bureau Waardenburg), AKWA carries a combination of controlled greenhouse experiments, field exclosures and analysis of historical data to understand the causes of the absence of macrophytes in these waters. This project is commissioned by Waterboard Hollandse Delta.
