Nutrient pollution is a phenomena that happens when too many nutrients are added to a body of water, which leads to an excess growth of algae. This type of pollution is caused mainly if the body of water have the presence of nutrients rich in nitrogen and phosphorus that the algae uses to growth quickly. Nutrient pollution is caused by improper handling of fertilizers, animal manure, sewage treatment plant discharges, among others.
