What is eutrophication?
"In this educational video, we explore the concept of eutrophication and its impact on aquatic ecosystems. Eutrophication occurs when water bodies become overly enriched with nutrients, primarily nitrogen and phosphorus, leading to excessive plant growth and decay. This process can result in harmful algal blooms, which deplete oxygen in the water and harm fish and other aquatic life. We’ll discuss the causes of eutrophication, such as agricultural runoff and wastewater discharge, and its consequences for water quality and biodiversity. Join us as we delve into the science behind eutrophication and learn about its implications for our environment!"
