Lake & Pond Mangement |
|
Why Aerate? All lakes and ponds contain contain varying amounts of nutrients such as phosphorus and nitrogen. When these nutrient levels become too high they adversely impact fish, other aquatic life. This is especially a problem during the warmer summer months and can cause a marked decrease in water quality. These high levels of nutrients stimulate excessive growth of algae and other less desireable aquatic plants. The concentrations of dissolved oxygen decline when there is an algae bloom which in turn will cause other aquatic organisms to die. The high levels of nutrients are further increased by the decomposing material which is now settling to the bottom.
