Some consider heating of open bodies of water by discharge from industrial plants to be pollution on the theory that it adversely affects the lives of the fish in the water. In some such cases, it has been demonstrated that the fish thrived in the warmer water.

What pollution raises the temperature of water in waterway?
When the temperature of water in waterways increases, it's called thermal pollution.
An increase in a body of water's temperature caused by adding warmer water is called?
Thermal Pollution.
What is trimal pollution?
First it's Thermal Thermal pollution is a temperature change in natural water bodies caused by human influence. The temperature change can be upwards or downwards. In the Northern Hemisphere, a common cause of thermal pollution is the use of water as a coolant, especially in power plants. Water used as a coolant is returned to the natural environment at a higher temperature. Increases in water temperature can impact on aquatic organisms by (a) decreasing oxygen supply, (b) killing fish juveniles which are vulnerable to small increases in temperature, and (c) affecting ecosystem composition. In the Southern Hemisphere, thermal pollution is commonly caused by the release of very cold water from the base of reservoirs, with severe affects on fish (particularly eggs and larvae), macroinvertebrates and river productivity.
If the temperature increases in the water of lakes and streams then what type of pollution may occur?
thermal pollution
Control measures of thermal pollution?
Thermal pollution is the result of water that is warmer than the natural temperature of a waterway being released into it. Heating or cooling water to match the temperature of the waterway before it is released will help to resolve thermal pollution.
How does the temperature of water change as how does the temperature of water change as the bulls it boils?
The teamperature does not change
How can temperature be pollution?
Temperature is neutral. It is part of climate data, and is not pollution.
Give you a conclusion for thermal pollution?
'''Thermal pollution''' is the rise or fall in the temperature of a natural body of water caused by human influence. A common cause of thermal pollution is the use of water as a coolant by power plants and industrial manufacturers. When water used as a coolant is returned to the natural environment at a higher temperature the change in temperature impacts organisms by (a) decreasing oxygen supply, and (b) affecting ecosystem composition. Urban runoff--storm water discharged to surface waters from roads and parking lots--can also be a source of elevated water temperatures
Will water pollution change the Climate?
No. Water pollution damages the environment, destroys marine animals and fish as well as their habitats, but it probably separate from climate change. Global warming will change the climate.
Why does water makes it unsuitable for certain uses?
Turbulence, pollution, and organisms inhabiting it.

A change in the rate of enzyme action in aquatic invertebrates would most directly result from a change in what?
temperature of the water
