Usually refers to a nutrient-enriched, highly productive body of water

eutrophic

Waters with a good supply of nutrients and hence a rich organic production

eutrophic

Having a large or excessive supply or plant nutrients, nitrates and phosphates, usually resulting in an increase in biomass and productivity, (see oligotrophic)

eutrophic

being rich in nutrients and minerals and therefore having an excessive growth of algae and thus a diminished oxygen content to the detriment of other organisms

eutrophic

Having high primary productivity; pertaining to waters rich in the mineral nutrients required by green plants

eutrophic

a situation in which the increased availability of nutrients such as nitrate and phosphate stimulates the growth of plants such that the oxygen content is depleted and carbon sequestered

one of the four trophic state categories, the eutrophic state is defined as having a high level of biological productivity, second only to the hypereutrophic category The prefix "eu" means good or sufficient A eutrophic waterbody is capable of producing and supporting an abundance of living organisms (plants, fish, and wildlife)

eutrophic

(well fed) means nutrient-rich and is usually associated with low oxygen levels

eutrophic

the condition of water being rich in plant nutrients (Cole, 1994) Nutrient-enrichment causes biological productivity to increase, but biodiversity within the aquatic ecosystem to decrease In turn, eutrophic waters are also anaerobic (deprived of dissolved oxygen) Water is usually considered to be eutrophic if phosphorus loading exceeds 20mg/L

eutrophic

Reservoirs and lakes which are rich in nutrients and very productive in terms of aquatic animal and plant life
