Red Tide in the context of Eutrophication

Explanation:

• Eutrophication is a serious environmental issue across the world.

• The causes of eutrophication are the high concentration of nutrients in the water body, such as nitrogen and phosphorous.

• These nutrients are the food for aquatic organisms such as algae, plankton.

• When the eutrophication process occurs in the ocean, the population of certain species of microscopic dinoflagellates explodes.

• During the explosion, the water can turn red, brown, or pink, and this is called "Red tide."

• The major eutrophication in the ocean is caused by human beings.
