Abstract
While vital for the survival of all organisms,
nutrients can also pose a threat to aquatic life.
Surplus nutrients from agriculture and sewage
can cause excess growth of plant life and algae
in a process called eutrophication. Eutrophication
can have various damaging ecological impacts,
including low DO, blocking light from the water
column, and blooms of toxic blue-green algae.
