Follow enrichment
Excess nutrients can trigger algal blooms. The gradual natural enrichment and ageing of a lake is eutrophication; human nutrient loading can accelerate the process.
Track introduced species
African catfish was introduced into Indian waters for aquaculture. Amazon clearing has multiple drivers and is not limited to soybean cultivation.
