A graph depicts the low oxygen levels and high ammonium concentrations in 2005 that caused large algae blooms. This put more stress on the ecosystem, resulting in the fish kill.
2005 Corsica River Fish Kill
A graph shows the relationship between nitrogen levels and the brown tide cell concentrations in Maryland's Chesapeake and Coastal Bays.
Aureococcus Anophagefferens Blooms and Nitrogen…
A conceptual diagram illustrates the factors that cause brown tide algae blooms to occur in high magnitudes and what impacts these blooms have on the rest of the ecosystem.
Causes and Impacts of Brown Tide Algal Blooms
A graph depicts the trend of increasing prorocentrum minimum levels since 1970 in the Chesapeake Bay.
Prorocentrum Minimum Levels since 1970
A conceptual diagram illustrates the key features of the Chesapeake Bay watershed as well as the inputs that stimulate eutrophication and the symptoms of eutrophication.
The Causes and Effects of Eutrophication
A conceptual diagram illustrates the main threats and key features of the Upper-Mississippi River Sub-Basin. Some of these threats include harmful algal blooms, power plants and urban centers. Diagram from
Main Threats and Key Features of the Upper…
As land use in the Chilika Lake area changes from forest to settlements and paddy agriculture sewage, and fertilizer and pesticides runoff increases into the Lake. This extra nutrient input results in algae blooms that float and sit on the bottom.
Chilika Lake Pollution Pressure
This conceptual diagram depicts the environmental factors that lead to harmful algal blooms in the Potomac River. The diagram compares ideal bloom conditions to poor bloom conditions.
Environmental conditions that lead to harmful…
