In some places, though, iron is the limiting nutrient. Adding iron to such places should cause a bloom of planktonic algae, thus sucking carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.

然而在一些地方却缺少铁物质，在这些地方添加铁物质可以产生茂密的浮游藻类，并因此能从大气层中吸取二氧化碳。

Phosphorus is the first limiting nutrient density to the algae populations, and therefore control the eutrophication, may depend on the phosphorus control measures.

磷是水体中藻类种群和密度的第一限制性营养元素，因此在水体富营养化的治理上，可能取决于对磷的控制措施。

Nutritionists say that limiting caloric intake in a compressed time frame can lead to nutrient deficiencies, causing decreased immune function, dry skin and loss of muscle or bone density, for starters.
