Aquatic vegetation problems are usually caused by human activity that has changed the balance of the environment. Eutrophication and overgrowth disrupt the water cycle. Vegetation also has a detrimental effect on water quality and, thereby, on human health. Both floods and falling water levels are frequently caused by vegetation. Aquatic vegetation is often cleared to improve the safety of water-borne traffic. Excessive vegetation hinders professional fishing and limits the recreational use of bodies of water. Weed harvesting can also be a conservation measure required to safeguard the survival of bird and fish species in their natural habitats. In inhabited areas, the appearance of the environment is also a consideration.
