Dead zones : the loss of oxygen from rivers, lakes, seas, and the ocean / David L. Kirchman.

Explains the impacts of dead zones and provides an in-depth history of oxygen loss in water. Details the role the agricultural industry plays in water pollution, showcasing how fertilizers contaminate water supplies and kickstart harmful algal blooms in local lakes, reservoirs, and coastal oceans.

520 |a Explains the impacts of dead zones and provides an in-depth history of oxygen loss in water. Details the role the agricultural industry plays in water pollution, showcasing how fertilizers contaminate water supplies and kickstart harmful algal blooms in local lakes, reservoirs, and coastal oceans. Algae decomposition requires so much oxygen that levels drop low enough to kill fish, destroy bottom-dwelling biota, reduce biological diversity, and rearrange food webs. We can't undo the damage completely, but we can work together to reduce the size and intensity of dead zones in places like the Gulf of Mexico, Chesapeake Bay, and the Baltic Sea.
