Which ecological effect results from the artificial upwelling induced by deep ocean nutrient pipes?

💡 Explanation

When artificially inducing upwelling via nutrient pipes, phytoplankton populations can rapidly increase due to the influx of nutrients that were previously restricted, and this can cause harmful algal bloom proliferation. Therefore bloom proliferation occurs, rather than eliminating dead zones, acidification mitigation or oxygen depletion, which require balanced biogeochemical processes.
