of population growth. One third of the world’s population today already live in countries experiencing medium to high water stress. Water Stress Water stress for a river basin is defined as the water resources available in that basin. The water stress for a country is the summation of water stress for all its river basins. Water stress begins when the withdrawals of water of freshwater rises above 10 percent of renewable resources. Medium to high stress translates as water use that exceeds 20

River ranges from “humid subtropical [to] distinct dry and wet seasons… [with] rainfall within the basin [averaging] 140–150 cm/yr‚ with 62% falling from June through October” (Lapointe‚ Herren‚ Debortoli‚ & Vogel‚ 2015). Algae blooms are influenced by a number of factors‚ climate and rainfall being only two of them. An initial factor that led to today’s regular occurrence of algae blooms is the Drainage Acts of Florida in 1916 which “permitted the creation of canals to drain uplands for agriculture
