Infographic: Sources of nutrient pollution in water

There are many sources of nutrient pollution in water. Scientists are interested in the nutrients that are related to people living in the coastal zone because human-related inputs are much greater than natural inputs. As there are more people living in coastal areas, there are more nutrients entering our coastal waters from wastewater treatment facilities, runoff from land in urban areas during rains, and from farming.
