Editing Eutrophication (section)

=== Economic effects ===
Eutrophication and harmful algal blooms can have economic impacts due to increasing [[water treatment]] costs, commercial fishing and shellfish losses, recreational fishing losses (reductions in harvestable fish and [[shellfish]]), and reduced tourism income (decreases in perceived aesthetic value of the water body).<ref>{{Cite web |last=US EPA |first=OW |date=2013 |title=The Effects: Economy |url=https://www.epa.gov/nutrientpollution/effects-economy |access-date=February 15, 2022 |publisher=EPA |language=en |archive-date=September 28, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220928180552/https://www.epa.gov/nutrientpollution/effects-economy |url-status=live }}</ref> Water treatment costs can be increased due to decreases in water transparency (increased [[turbidity]]). There can also be issues with color and smell during drinking water treatment. However, controlled eutrophication can potentially be used to increase production in fisheries, which in turn increases community income.<ref>{{Cite journal |title=Eutrophication in a tropical estuary: Is it good or bad? | date=2021 |url=https://validate.perfdrive.com/9730847aceed30627ebd520e46ee70b2/?ssa=39256e8b-8015-4939-8dc3-b2b73e11afeb&ssb=94221292278&ssc=https%3A%2F%2Fiopscience.iop.org%2Farticle%2F10.1088%2F1755-1315%2F744%2F1%2F012010%2Fmeta.&ssi=91b42654-cnvj-4184-83a0-06c0efc5f604&ssk=botmanager_support@radware.com&ssm=98085175173896445106857097371161&ssn=d103143503189e7ed0cb72ac7806a5e5f9f8b8aacfb1-a85c-4798-90d55d&sso=8808843e-db480637d66a9451bacb934cf5b50ea3ca42f547fc6c80bf&ssp=95539659781745220036174523019584955&ssq=30730229263686948521992636917576745583667&ssr=MjA4LjgwLjE1NS4xMTg=&sst=Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/110.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 Citoid/WMF (mailto:noc@wikimedia.org)&ssu=&ssv=&ssw=&ssx=eyJfX3V6bWYiOiI3ZjYwMDA0NjAyOGY0Yi00OGVkLTRmOTYtODIwYi02OGQzOTFmMzhlOTAxNzQ1MjkyNjM2NDM3MC00YzAwNDFmYjQyNmY3ODQ0MTAiLCJ1em14IjoiN2Y5MDAwOTAwNDgzNzEtNDE2ZC00NTFkLTgxZDQtNDA5Yjc0Y2NhMzliMS0xNzQ1MjkyNjM2NDM3MC01MmNlNjc2ZjdjNjU0NTQxMTAiLCJyZCI6ImlvcC5vcmcifQ== |doi=10.1088/1755-1315/744/1/012010 | journal=IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science | volume=744 | issue=1 | page=012010 | bibcode=2021E&ES..744a2010D | vauthors = Damar A, Ervinia A, Kurniawan F, Rudianto BY | doi-access=free }}</ref> Notably, there is a delicate line where eutrophication can become damaging very quickly, and as such is not recommended currently due to high eutrophication rates.
