Sewage discharged into the mississippi river system


The nutrients, including those from fertilizer runoff and from sewage discharged into the Mississippi River system, ignite algal blooms in the warmed surface water subjected to the increasingly intense sunlight during spring that remains strong into summer. The dead algae then sink and begin to decompose as they settle through the underlying seawater to the ocean bottom. The decomposition process results in the [(loss) (gain)] of dissolved oxygen in the deeper seawater.
