algal bloom

Rapid and flourishing growth of algae Sudden, massive growths of microscopic and macroscopic plant life, such as green or bluegreen algae, which develop in lakes and reservoirs

algal bloom

a large, visible mass of algae found in water bodies during warm weather

algal bloom

a phenomenon whereby excessive nutrients within a river, stream or lake cause an explosion of plant life which results in the depletion of the oxygen in the water needed by fish and other aquatic life Algae bloom is usually the result of urban runoff (of lawn fertilizers, etc ) The potential tragedy is that of a "fish kill," where the stream life dies in one mass extinction

algal bloom

A dense mass of very small, aquatic organisms, such as plankton, easily visible to the eye (Dictionary of Science)

algal bloom

Rapid growth of algae on the surface of lakes, streams, or ponds; stimulated by nutrient enrichment

algal bloom

large, visible masses of algae found in bodies of water during warm water

algal bloom

(1) A phenomenon whereby excessive nutrients within a river, stream or lake cause an explosion of plant life which results in the depletion of the oxygen in the water needed by fish and other aquatic life Algae bloom is usually the result of urban runoff (of lawn fertilizers, etc ) Potential tragedy is that of a "fish kill," resulting in massive stream life extinction (2) Rapid growth of algae on the surface of lakes, streams, or ponds; stimulated by nutrient enrichment It is associated with Eutrophication and results in deterioration in water quality Also spelled Algae Bloom ADVANCE\x 540

algal bloom

proliferation of living algae on the surface of lakes, streams, or ponds that is stimulated by nutrient, especially nitrogen or phosphate, enrichment

algal bloom

excessive growth of aquatic algae resulting from nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus being added to the environment

algal bloom

Excessive, or dense growths, of a single or several species of algae Usually of relatively short duration but may persist for extended periods

algal bloom

sudden, massive growths of microscopic and macroscopic plant life, algae, and cyanobacteria, which develop in lakes, reservoirs, and marine waters

algal bloom

a sudden spurt of algal growth that can indicate potentially hazardous changes in local water chemistry

algal bloom

A bloom of algae occurs when their growth is so rapid that they become numerous enough to colour a body of water, a population explosion of phytoplankton in response to changing environmental conditions, including eutrophication from wastewater and non-point sources, blooms can result in oxygen depletion and biological impacts such as fish kills, blooms are often the result of urban runoff of lawn fertilizers

algal bloom

Heavy growth of algae in and on a body of water as a result of high nutrient concentrations

algal bloom

The rapid excessive growth of algae, generally caused by high nutrient levels and favourable conditions Can result in deoxygenation of the water mass when the algae die, leading to the death of aquatic flora and fauna

algal bloom

A rapid accumulation of living organic matter (usually on the water's surface) Possible results of blooms include water quality deterioration, algae dying & breaking down, algae consuming the dissolved oxygen and releasing toxins

algal bloom

Rapid growth of algae in surface waters due to an increase in nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus

algal bloom

a high density algal growth, typically blue-green algae/cyanobacteria, that are often seen as free floating mats; they can occur suddenly as a result of opportunistic growth spurts and can adversely affect water quality
