Eutrophication is basically like the nutrient loading of a bay or coastal water body to the point that you see some measurable observable impacts such as algal blooms. These seagrass beds are critical habitat they provide a refuge from predation for multitudes of different species in what would otherwise be almost a barren landscape. So when this these algal mats block that sunlight the seagrasses die off and then critters down in the sea have nowhere to live and then they get gobbled up so it's like thanks algae you were having such a good time you ruined things for everyone and now I'm going to heaven.
