The global process of eutrophication and its features in Arctic lakes as a consequence of climate warming

An analysis of the problem of water bodies eutrophication as a global process is presented. The volumes increasing use of nitrogen and phosphorus on a planetary scale are shown, the dispersion of which leads to an increase in the content of nutrients in lakes and rivers. The results of original studies of remote lakes in the Arctic zone are presented, which showed an increase in the concentrations of nutrients in lakes in recent decades. A tendency has been revealed for an increase in the contents of nitrogen and phosphorus, as well as organic matter in lake waters, even in the absence of anthropogenic influence. It has been established that an increase in temperature and climate warming in the Arctic regions exert the main influence on the increase in the content of nutrients and the trophic status of lakes.
