Eutrophication Explained

[@darknativity42]

Seriously, where was this channel and all its concise explanations when I was failing my environmental science course last year?

[@AtlasPro1]

My bad :(

[@manictiger]

It's a shame that learning is so often tied to negative emotions and stress. This education system needs a complete overhaul. Learning should be giving us Dopamine. Instead, Facebook is usually that source. What a mess.

[@aniketdatta2450]

@@manictiger try to explain this to the authorities of the education system and they'll call the students lazy and incompetent. Millions of students all across the world, and they are all at wrong, while the authority holding geezers who are long past their expiry date are right about everything. That is their logic. It is always the students who are at fault. Tragic.

[@solii01]

@@aniketdatta2450 To be fair, making learning interesting is not easy. This guy has a lot of talent and puts in a lot of work. There is just not enough people willing and able to do that in a country so that every child would have only great teachers. Sadly in my country teching attracts a lot of people who dont know what to do with their lives, so they become a teacher because at least their job is safe.

Does Eutrophication tend to happen naturally in nature (perhaps a forest fire?) or is it almost always a human condition? Yet another great video btw. I don't tend to gain a lot of new information from youtubers, but your concise videos always seem to carry information peripheral to my world knowledge. Keep it up!! :)

[@AtlasPro1]

Yes things like forest fires, land slides, and many other natural processes can cause eutrophication. Every autumn in temperate climate trees shed their leaves and can cause degrees of eutrophication. These aren’t really seen as damaging though, as ecosystems have typically adapted to these. Really only human caused eutrophication causes widescale damages. Thanks for watching!

There are two sorts of eutrophication- (1) natural (2) cultural

"Fixed" Nitrogen is not N2 molecules, it's Ammonia or Nitrate. Phosphorus used by plants is in the form of Phosphate. Plants use Oxidized forms, not the ELemental form!

I was going to write that! Thank you (still waiting for an answer from Atlas Pro).

[@ivanl.1881]

I always found it funny how people rake away leaves and grass clippings and then put down fertilizer. It’s like not drinking water and then hooking yourself up to a saline drip.

[@monaali4440]

Wow, this is really good! It has all the important information and it's condensed so well.

[@the_neutral_container]

Your graphics are improving by leaps and bounds! I love the floating molecules on the river .

Thank you, it’s been one of the biggest challenges so far figuring out how to display concepts visually, glad they work!

Thank you for this very enlightening video!! This helped me understand and enabled me to answer my assignment in systematics.

I loved the explanation!!! I was wondering if the detritus layer of eutrophicated lakes are a good source for fertilizers??

I’m learning more about this because of a town park near a river I use to go in the summer with my community and my friends and cousin one time jumped in the river back then when it was clean. It was my favorite park to visit in the summer especially during golden hours. I returned to visit the same park and its was full algae and thats when I googled about eutrophication and made a huge ass post about it on instagram. And then I return to the park with kids now 2 days ago and I saw the river is now cleaner and majority of the eutrophication has been removed. Kinda gave me the same hope I can still enjoy the park and river scenery knowing eutrophication can be removed.

[@sandrabrickell9999]

Extremely helpful. Thank you.

[@mrnnhnz]

So, which bit actually IS eutrophication? The leaching of fertilizer into the soil? The growth of algal blooms?... I'm guessing it's the de-oxygenation of the water, but you didn't explicitly say, so I could be wrong... By the way, I love your channel man, that's why I decided to go back and watch all of your videos from the beginning 🙂

[@Jasleenkaur0411]

The explanation is so good 🙃, it was much needed

And this doesn’t even take Round-Up or other harmful chemicals into account. But that’s enough of a topic for a video in itself.

[@poulomi__hari]

Can ducks be used to prevent Eutrophication. In my country a eco-scientist has developed an eco-friendly waste management model according to which we use ducks to clean lakes and ponds. He says that the ducks paddle so fast, they help in keeping the water clean.

[@Phyto.]

Yes, due to their oxygenating effects, they aerate the water.

A huge source of runoff that you didn't mention is grass clippings. When people dump unbagged grass clippings on the side of the road, they wash into the sewers and decompose, leaching all of the nutrients used to grow them. renegadegardener.com/care/every-curb-is-a-shoreline/

Here in Mexico City, Chapultepec lake is always green so I guess there is no animal or vegetal life :'v, also because of the boats sailing all over. Anyhow congrats for the 1000 subscribers, your channel deserves a LOT more :)

[@AtlasPro1]

Yes bodies of water close to cities usually don’t do too well, the image I used to show eutrophication in the ocean was actually right outside New York City, another huge population center

[@3.saar.a]

The nutrients like nitrogen or phosphorus, which most life makes use of, typically occur as compounds like ammonia, nitrate, etc. instead of N2 or P4. Actually N2 is so stable that most life cannot make use of directly. Hence the graphics at the beginning is actually quite misleading.

[@cesar3550]

[@frobasea]

Farmer’s actually have their fields tested throughout the entire field before applying, and only fertilize in the deficient areas. Fertilizers are expensive, especially when you are talking about hundred of acres. So as a farmer, no better be safe than sorry is not true - I don’t want to waste my money.

[@alyssareynolds799]

@@dacadz Do you farm? Do you know the costs? Fertilizers are extremely expensive when talking hundreds of acres. You actually save money by having the fields tested and only treating the deficient areas vs just fertilizing everything! What a waste that would be! Otherwise you are buying unneeded fertilizer and over-fertilizing - which the cost outweighs by again, by having the field tested! If they can't afford the testing, they cant afford the fertilizer. I am not denying there is going to be some run-off, but we do our part to limit it! Just trying to help educate about our livelihood. The urban world really comes after farmers but has no idea what it takes! Give the farmers a break - your belly is full isn't it?

You can also use oilseed radishes as a organic fertilizer

So, do anything other than algae, bacteria and invasive species benefit from Eutrophication? This was a pretty negative presentation, and maybe Eutrophication is very destructive of live. Just wondering, as I know little about this phenomenon.

Wait, so, as someone who has never heard the word before, exactly which part/collection of the processes discussed is eutrophication?

[@k0mm4nd3r_k3n]

The decreased oxygen levels in a body of water occurring due to plant/animal die off and decomposition. After the process, the body of water can be called 'eutrophied'.
