What is a definition for excessive nutrients?
Excessive nutrients refer to an overabundance of specific substances, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, in an ecosystem, particularly in the context of water bodies like lakes and rivers.

Excessive nutrient levels can lead to a variety of environmental problems including algal blooms, oxygen depletion, and ecosystem disruptions.

What does a duck eat to survive in a pond?

Is precipitation linked to the nitrogen cycle?
precipitation is linked to the nitrogen cycle because air contains nitrogen and when the rail falls there's an average of about 12% nitrogen in the water that falls, which affects the nitrgen cycle by boosting nitrogen levels up to aproximetly 12g of nitrogen per 5m squared, which the added nitrogen levels may affect delicate ecosystems if not properly managed. The increase in nitrogen levels is often caused by gases containing nitrogen being released into the atmosphere.
How do you test nitrogen levels in water?
go to this website. Should help. http://waterwatch.org.au/publications/module4/nitrogen.html
