The eutrophication of the Potomac River is evident from the bright green water, caused by a dense bloom ofcyanobacteria.
Eutrophication (Greek: eutrophia (from eu"well" + trephein "nourish".); German:Eutrophie), or more preciselyhypertrophication, is the ecosystem's response to the addition of artificial or natural nutrients, mainly phosphates, throughdetergents, fertilizers, or sewage, to an aquatic system.[1] One example is the "bloom" or great increase of phytoplankton in a water body as a response to increased levels of nutrients. Negative environmental effects include hypoxia, the depletion of oxygen in the water, which may cause death to aquatic animals.
