Eutrophication

Eutrophication:

 The accelerated loading or dumping of nutrients in a lake by natural or human-induced causes. Natural eutrophication will change the character of a lake very gradually, sometimes taking centuries, but human-induced or cultural eutrophication speeds
up the aging of a lake, changing its qualities quickly, often in a matter of years.
