Nitrogen is a major environmental pollutant of groundwater in many parts of the world. What is the major cause of this nitrogen accumulation in groundwater?

#10. Ecological Principles
  1. Excessive use of nitrogen fertilizers
  2. Destruction of nitrifying bacteria, which results in soil nitrogen remaining as NH+4
  3. Excess soil moisture, which causes ammonification or denitrification
  4. Presence of sandy-textured soil
