26- It became apparent during the study that algal growth was unlikely to be limited by nutrient supply.
27- The organic molecules released from the bacterial cells by the viruses stimulates fresh bacterial and algal growth .
28- Current research is evaluating the use of bacteria to limit algal growth and prevent algal bloom formation.
29- Aeration cannot be a factor, as this algal growth also occurs in stagnant water.
30- Soluble ash content can be very important for aquarists, as ferric oxide can promote algal growths .
31- When excess nutrients enter a waterbody, algal growth rates are stimulated, increasing populations to abnormally large sizes.
32- The Batfish "Platax pinnatus" has been observed to significantly reduce algal growths in studies simulating overfishing.
33- It also promotes algal growth , which reduces water's oxygen content and makes it hard to support life.
34- However, their manufacturers claim that their use leads to less algal growth in ponds and small water bodies.
35- Their activity keeps the substrate stirred up well, breaks up detritus, and also keeps algal growth down.
36- The best control method is limiting algal growth before it accelerates by limiting the amount of nutrients entering the waterbody.
37- The lower concentrations of phosphorus in surface runoff reduces algal growth , because phosphorus is the limiting nutrient for algae.
38- Seagrass declines in some areas are attributed partly to excessive nutrients in water bodies stimulating excessive algal growth on seagrasses .
39- Concentrations of nitrate from groundwater discharging to the Carson River may add to the excessive algal growth in summer months.
