this study investigated the effects of sewage discharge on nutrient concentrations and bod5 levels in the coastal waters and sediments ofthe city of mombasa. the results indicated that nutrient concentrations in tudor, mtwapa and makupa creeks were elevated as compared to concentrations in gazi creek (mean ranges of 0.022-0.039mg/l, 0.038-0.163mg/l and 0.034-0.118mg/lphosphates, nitrates and a...

background: in the recent years, eutrophication has become a serious challenge for many of the water ecosystems. it has affected the environmental and economical aspects of the anzali wetland, which is known as one of the significant ecosystem. due to the increase of the nutrient loadings from the industrial, agricultural and human activities, the wetland’s health is faced many serious problems...

background: nowadays the eutrophication of water bodies is enhanced due to discharge of effluents and runoffs. therefore, there is a demand for the management of natural and artificial lakes to prevent or postpone this problem. lakes eutrophication is a complex process. therefore computerized models are very important tools to describe this process. although there are several models for this, b...

Lakes and ponds are dominant components of Arctic landscapes provide food water for northern communities. In the Greiner Lake watershed, in Cambridge Bay (Nunavut, Canada), bodies small (84% <5 ha) shallow (99% <4 m deep). Such characteristics make them vulnerable to eutrophication as temperatures rise nutrient concentrations from greening landscape increase. Here, we investigated compare...
