Eutrophication is the increase of plant nutrients particularly nitrogen and phosphorus into water beyond the natural concentration, thus encouraging plant growth that can clog waterways, make treating the water for drinking more difficult, and inhibit fish life by depleting oxygen. Harper (zoology and education, U. of Leicester, England) explains the causes and effects, and management options. Addressed to freshwater scientists and engineers, and advanced students. Acidic paper. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
