Abstract
The ENEX experiment in Lake Redon (Pyrenees) investigated the relationship between the changes in plankton stoichiometry, productivity, and community structure occurring during nutrient fluctuations in P‐limited conditions. Columnar enclosures were used for treatments varying P availability, N:P imbalance, and N source. C:N:P seston ratios were stable in P‐limited conditions, with loose coupling with productivity, nutrient supply ratios, and species dominance. The stoichiometric ratios shifted to Redfield proportions in P‐repleted conditions. The results suggest a complex regulation of P scarcity in planktonic communities that goes beyond immediate acclimation growth responses and might include alternative physiological and biogeochemical states.
