    Thanks for the reply ptygmit.

    And what causes algal blooms ? It can be triggered by man-made pollutants containing phosphorus and nitrogen, can it not ?

    "Runoff and erosion from fertilised agricultural areas, erosion from river banks, river beds, land clearing (deforestation), and sewage effluent are the major sources of phosphorus and nitrogen entering water ways"
