The general term for an environmental factor that causes a population to decrease is a limiting factor. Some examples are emigration and mortality, a lack of resources, natural disasters happen which makes people scared to to live there so the people flee, and habitat loss.
This is an immensely broad topic. It would help to narrow down to species.
But, contributing factors to ANY population decrease: introduced species, competition with livestock, extirpation through hunting or trapping (or simply an excess thereof), poaching due to the illegal sale of protected animal products, the live animal trade, destruction of habitat, pollution of habitat, habitat changes due to human or other influences, interactions with humans, loss of breeding ground/area/nesting-areas/other, poison, loss of feeding grounds or sources of food, loss of wintering grounds, and other effects through changes in the ecosystem (the extirpation of wolves in Yellowstone cause the beaver population to leave).

The shrimp population will increase which will cause an increase in the squid population.
Populations increase and decrease because people leave one country (emigration) and enter another (immigration). A rise or fall in either the birth rate or death rate in a country can also cause populations to increase or decrease.
It is important to determine environmental conditions that can cause mold. This fungi can cause health problems in individuals such as wheezing, eye irritation, and chronic lung conditions.
The environmental conditions can affect your body fluid balance because it can cause you to sweat too much.
