Eutrophication is a serious environmental issue caused by too many nutrients entering freshwater systems, leading to excessive plant growth and harmful effects. The article explores how nutrients like phosphorus and nitrogen move from land to water, affecting aquatic ecosystems. It discusses how nutrient levels impact the growth of algae and potentially toxic cyanobacteria. Different sources of pollution, like factories or farms, have varying impacts on lakes and rivers. The study also looks at how ecosystems recover after efforts to reduce nutrient pollution. Overall, the research highlights the importance of managing nutrient inputs to protect freshwater environments.
