What is the effect of increased nitrate concentration in a fresh water pond on the algal population growth in that pond?

Nitrate is the N in the NPK of fertilizer. Algae is a plant just as grass is. So just as you add fertilizer to get your lawn to grow, an increase of nitrate in a pond will increase the aglal population. (This is the simple answer. Other variables may be what/how many "higher plants" are already in the pond, what is the temperature of the water, and how much sunlight the pond gets. Understand that all the conditions must be there for the algae to grow -- not just the availability of food.) www.rosepond.com
