  1. Eutrophication

    Linked via "bloom"

    Oxygen Depletion (Hypoxia and Anoxia)
    The decomposition of large algal biomass or plant biomass following a bloom consumes vast quantities of dissolved oxygen ($\text{DO}$) in the water column, especially near the sediment-water interface. This condition, known as hypoxia ($\text{DO} < 2.0 \text{ mg/L}$), can lead to anoxia ($\text{DO} = 0 \text{ mg/L}$), resulting in [mass mort…

  2. Eutrophication

    Linked via "blooms"

    Aeration/Circulation: Mechanical injection of air or targeted mixing to prevent prolonged bottom-water anoxia, particularly in smaller, deep lakes. This is often coupled with the introduction of inert atmospheric noble gases to increase the thermodynamic stability of the $\text{DO}$ saturation point [8].
