Project Description Seaweeds are known to absorb excess nutrients from the water in which they grow. Waste water effluents in Maine (and elsewhere) often carry excessively high levels of nutrients, which cause eutrophication of the ecosystem. Growing seaweeds in effluent affected waters may help to reduce the effects of eutrophication. This project aims to determine … Continue reading Nutrient Compositional Analysis of Seaweed Samples
