Phosphorus is an important nutrient for aquatic plants. The amount found in water is
generally not more than 0.1 ppm unless the water has become polluted from waste
water sources or excessive drainage from agricultural areas. When phosphorus is
present in excess of the concentrations required for normal aquatic plant growth, a
process called eutrophication takes place. This creates a favorable environment for the
increase in algae and weeds. When algae cells die, oxygen is used in the decomposition
and fi sh kills often result. Rapid decomposition of dense algae scums with associated
organisms give rise to foul odors and hydrogen sulfi de gas.
