Nutrients are an essential part of life, however excess amounts of them can harm the environment. Anthropogenic activities can lead to such excessive amount of nutrients in runoff and cause degradation of receiving waters. Phosphorus and Nitrogen are the main nutrients of concern in stormwater runoff. This page provides information on the sources of nutrients, the issues caused by their excess amounts, and strategies to manage them.
