- Intervention effect Deep water suppressed growth of Vallisneria natans compared with shallow water.
- Intervention effect Deep water suppressed growth of Hydrilla verticillata compared with shallow water.
- Intervention effect Intermediate depth inhibited Vallisneria natans growth.
- Intervention effect Deep water enhanced the competitive advantage of Vallisneria over Hydrilla.
- Association Hydrilla height increased with water depth.
- Association Hydrilla plant numbers fell with greater water depth.
- Association Vallisneria showed a similar height increase from 50 to 150 cm depth.
- Intervention effect At 250 cm, Vallisneria height and plant number were reduced.
- Recommendation Lower water levels could increase total submerged macrophyte biomass during lake restoration.
