This is a good interesting paper. There's a lot mor evariation in natural systems, but this is pretty well suited for aquarium adaptation.
The sediment really plays a large role as does the light/dark periods.
Also, they cite Sand Jensen's 1985 paper, also a very good read for those interested in Gases like O2 and CO2 at the leaf surfaces vs the overlaying water.
As you can see from that paper(Sand Jensen et al, 1985), there are huge differences.
I wish they had measured the epiphyton and the plant uptake ratio of the NH4 and NO3 in this paper.
