Resumen
Descripción
The condition of the water, including its chemical, physical and biological characteristics, defines water quality, which could be affected by excess inputs of chemicals or microorganisms such as nutrients, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, microplastics and pathogens. Deteriorating water quality is a global challenge. Pollution of water bodies is not only a serious risk to ecosystem health and biodiversity, but also to human health and economic development, such as food, aquaculture and energy production.
