Description
Alberta's irrigation districts are increasingly challenged by excessive vegetation growth in irrigation canals. Such growth can result in impairment of timely and adequate water conveyance. Overgrowth of aquatic vegetation is caused in part by an abundance of dissolved nutrients. This technical report communicates possible sources and fates of these nutrients in irrigation water and suggests mitigative actions.
