Eutrophication can be so pollutive, it can actually change the water colour to green.
Further information:
In addition, the murkiness of the water increases, which reduces the amount of light and oxygen which can get through to the animal and plant life in the depths of the water. The speed at which sedimentation occurs intensifies, and this tends to reduce the lifespan of the lake.

∙ 13y agoIt kills off the wildlife especially animals that require the depth in the water. Eutrophication results in algae blooms and when that decays it forms necron mud which holds nutrients that algae thrives on. When boats stir up the mud, they stir up the nutrients and the process of eutrophication will begin from the start again.

What are the cause and effects of Eutrophication?
Massive production of Algae
What is distinction between eutrophication and artificial eutrophication?
Dostinction between eutrophication and artificial eutrophication
What eutrophication and what are the steps that cause it to happen?
Eutrophication is where a body of water somehow acquires an excessive amount of nutrients and as a result, has a boom in biotic life. Eutrophication usually occurs because the Nitrogen-rich fertilizers are brought into the lake due to rain.
Which fuel source has the greatest potential to cause eutrophication?
either diesel or gas
Why is eutrophication bad?
Natural eutrophication isn't as much of a problem as artificial eutrophication. Artificial eutrophication is caused by humans (fertilizer from farms, lawns, gardens, etc. pesticides, herbicides, road chemicals, etc) these chemicals cause eutrophication to happen much faster than it should. If eutrophication happens faster, algal blooms (large floating mats of algae) form. When algal blooms decay, the bacteria that decays it depletes the oxygen in the lake or pond and the fish die of suffocation.
Which is the lake destroyed by Eutrophication in South India?
destruction of eutrophication
What are the ways to prevent eutrophication?
Eutrophication poses a problem not only to ecosystems, but to humans as well. Reducing eutrophication should be a key concern when considering future policy, and a sustainable solution for everyone, including farmers and ranchers, seems feasible. While eutrophication does pose problems, humans should be aware that natural runoff (which causes algal blooms in the wild) is common in ecosystems and should thus not reverse nutrient concentrations beyond normal levels.
What is the usual cause of cultural eutrophication in surface waters of both developed and developing countries?
lucia the evil one
What are two types of eutrophication?
eutrophication is of two types; natural and anthropogenic
One danger of excessive nitrogen levels in water is?
eutrophication
How can eutrophication destroy the habitat?
Eutrophication can cause loss of oxygen in the water with severe reductions in fish and other animal populations. Other species may experience an increase in population that negatively affects other species in the local ecosystem.
