Description
Satallite image of an algae bloom (green) in Lake Erie, Ohio, USA on 28th July 2015. The algal bloom was caused by phosphorous agricultural fertilizer run-off into the lake. Algal blooms pose a threat to safe drinking water supplies and can deplete oxygen concentrations in lakes, killing fish.
