Talk:Nuclear power greener/A Critique of Impact of the tihange nuclear power plant on the periphyton and the phytoplankton of the Meuse River

Jhill171 (talk) 02:58, 7 March 2012 (UTC)It is important to acknowledge that there was not a large difference in the biomass of phytoplankton below the plant throughout the year. The phytoplankton slightly increases during the coldest months of the year and conversely decreases slightly during the warmest months of the year. There was however a noted reduction of phytoplankton biomass at the furthest downstream sites due to the commutation of toxins, organic pollution and thermal discharges.
