En våtmarks kapacitet – går det att optimera en våtmark för att minska såväl eutrofiering som brunifiering? Att använda en våtmark i syfte att minska såväl övergödning som brun missfärgning av vattendrag, är absolut möjligt, men hur och varför är frågor som behöver studeras mer grundligt. Däremot verkar placeringen i landet i kombination med våtmarkens procentuella storlek i förhållande till avrDue to changes in land use, as well as impacts from the climate change, our inland waters are now exposed to problems such as eutrophication and brownification. This complicates management to develop clean drinking water, as well as it leads to anoxic bottoms and reduces primary production. This literature review aims to see if wetlands can work as a natural filter to reduce both nutrients (nitrog
