Effects on plant growth. Low levels of oxygen in the root zone trigger the adverse effects ofwaterlogging on plant growth. ... The shallow root systems that then develop limit the uptake of nutrients (particularly nitrogen) and water, particularly when the soil profile starts to dry in spring

Waterlogging causes the air within the soil to move out into the atmosphere, replacing it with more water. The inadequate supply of oxygen retards or ceases the growth of a plant as the accumulating carbon dioxide hampers the growth of the plant's roots.
