POLLUTION OF SURFACE WATER, EUTROPHICATION AND CYANOBACTERIA

This document describes the main mechanisms of surface water pollution, especially eutrophication and the development of cyanobacteria.
Public health issues are addressed whether for drinking water, water for swimming or fishing.
Only the process in relation to eutrophication are described along with substances that cause or result of eutrophivation. This restriction does not assume, however, that other substances are less dangerous.
