Naturally occurring bacteria in the water then converts this ammonia to nitrites and then to nitrates- the nitrogen cycle.  The decomposition process itself also consumes large amounts of dissolved oxygen, which can lead to hypoxic ( low oxygen) conditions that harm or kill fish and other aquatic animals.\r\n\r\nEffects on phosphate - as rain flows through leaves etc, phosphorus quickly leaches out, similar to a tea bag. Phosphorus can build up in the water and accumulate in the bottom sediment, where it can persist for decades.  Excess phosphate acts as a primary nutrient for algae, leading to rapid growth and algal blooms and blocking out sunlight, decaying vegetation depletes oxygen levels causing eutrophication.  In urban areas, fallen levels can contribute up to half of the annual phosphorus load in stormwater during the autumn months alone.","checked":"qc_complete","qa_notes":null,"qa_admin_notes":"","qa_admin_notes_author_id":null,"qa_admin_notes_updated_at":null,"tested_parameters":["current_weather_description","previous_weather_description","clarity","water_flow","water_level","ammonia","phosphates","air_temperature","algae","odour","pollution_sources","colour","on_the_water_s_surface"],"photos":["https://d27925nfpi4rwv.cloudfront.net/rails/active_storage/representations/proxy/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsibWVzc2FnZSI6IkJBaHBBdzJWQWc9PSIsImV4cCI6IjIwMjYtMDUtMDhUMDc6MjI6MzguODM3WiIsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--cda7b37ebdc8fdaf9da21e123235775c70ad1ccf/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsibWVzc2FnZSI6IkJBaDdCem9MWm05eWJXRjBTU0lJYW5CbkJqb0dSVlE2RTNKbGMybDZaVjkwYjE5bWFXeHNXd2RwQXBBQmFRS1FBUT09IiwiZXhwIjpudWxsLCJwdXIiOiJ2YXJpYXRpb24ifX0=--137cfa046b685d2c2c17f66eaa6c647bd283e601/1000024677.jpg","https://d27925nfpi4rwv.cloudfront.net/rails/active_storage/representations/proxy/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsibWVzc2FnZSI6IkJBaHBBdzZWQWc9PSIsImV4cCI6IjIwMjYtMDUtMDhUMDc6MjI6MzguODM5WiIsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--4c91cf24324a5c48c6cd008ecfd1f908494e924f/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsibWVzc2FnZSI6IkJBaDdCem9MWm05eWJXRjBTU0lJYW5CbkJqb0dSVlE2RTNKbGMybDZaVjkwYjE5bWFXeHNXd2RwQXBBQmFRS1FBUT09IiwiZXhwIjpudWxsLCJwdXIiOiJ2YXJpYXRpb24ifX0=--137cfa046b685d2c2c17f66eaa6c647bd283e601/1000024676.jpg"],"readings":[{"id":"c08934eb-a111-4bcb-8d30-22d25a50998c","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.367Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.367Z","parameter":"current_weather_description","unit":"nil","value":"Dull, cloudy and mild","equipment":"community_scientist_interpretation","equipment_limit":null},{"id":"7e86c01d-5fad-4329-b4f3-ea3015a2ae54","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.391Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.391Z","parameter":"previous_weather_description","unit":"nil","value":"Rained heaving all day","equipment":"community_scientist_interpretation","equipment_limit":null},{"id":"c9ccf1af-1266-43db-8482-c2deb34f426d","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.395Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.395Z","parameter":"clarity","unit":"nil","value":"clear","equipment":"community_scientist_interpretation_env","equipment_limit":null},{"id":"0822c252-0499-4b3a-93a0-d6770bb9fa02","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.399Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.399Z","parameter":"water_flow","unit":"nil","value":"slow","equipment":"community_scientist_interpretation_env","equipment_limit":null},{"id":"d9ee6451-cbd9-4a34-9530-a0e83ea86c9f","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.403Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.403Z","parameter":"water_level","unit":"nil","value":"low","equipment":"community_scientist_interpretation_env","equipment_limit":null},{"id":"525e5330-56e7-47be-9890-f37f5294cc7b","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.407Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.407Z","parameter":"ammonia","unit":"mg_l","value":"0.07","equipment":"hanna_checker_ammonia_low_range","equipment_limit":null},{"id":"b87810f9-0eb0-43bc-98bd-a146e60cade0","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.411Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.411Z","parameter":"phosphates","unit":"mg_l","value":"0.39","equipment":"hanna_checker_phosphates_low_range","equipment_limit":null},{"id":"4bb072af-ee53-4292-ae47-3a2687c0651e","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.415Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.415Z","parameter":"air_temperature","unit":"deg_c","value":"12","equipment":"other_thermometer","equipment_limit":null},{"id":"6e84adb9-1ca5-446f-841b-f7a08347a6b4","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.418Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.418Z","parameter":"algae","unit":"nil","value":"None","equipment":"community_scientist_interpretation_env","equipment_limit":null},{"id":"0ec167ca-fc5d-44c8-b440-47c0a10593bb","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.422Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.422Z","parameter":"odour","unit":"nil","value":"none","equipment":"community_scientist_interpretation_env","equipment_limit":null},{"id":"cda92f3e-77e4-4871-a712-391ab514efe3","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.426Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.426Z","parameter":"pollution_sources","unit":"nil","value":"urban_discharge","equipment":"community_scientist_interpretation_env","equipment_limit":null},{"id":"b52583b4-eb34-4247-81e7-61e0ba72d561","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.429Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.429Z","parameter":"colour","unit":"nil","value":"clear","equipment":"community_scientist_interpretation_env","equipment_limit":null},{"id":"b4f1bb8e-c1b1-4117-bf41-2ba985515210","created_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.433Z","updated_at":"2025-11-11T12:25:25.433Z","parameter":"on_the_water_s_surface","unit":"nil","value":"natural_debris","equipment":"community_scientist_interpretation_env","equipment_limit":null}]}
