EutrophicationViktorija Gailisa
油
Eutrophication is the excessive enrichment of a body of water with nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus, which induces excessive plant and algae growth. It is commonly caused by human activities like agricultural runoff containing fertilizers, sewage, and urban and industrial waste. Consequences of eutrophication include decreased biodiversity, algal blooms, oxygen depletion, and formation of dead zones. The Baltic Sea is one of the most eutrophic seas in the world due to agricultural runoff from its large drainage basin. Responses to eutrophication focus on reducing nutrient inputs from fertilizers and creating buffer zones.Linkingwords (1)
