Nous n'avons pas retrouvé le terme «efflorescence» avec le sens donné par la définition ci-haut dans aucun des autres ouvrages à notre disposition (par ex. : Grand dict. encycl. Larousse, Dict. de l'environnement, de Frans C. Lemaire, Dict. usuel de l'environnement et de l'écologie, de R. Amavis, Dict. de l'eau, de l'Ass. québécoise des techniques de l'eau en collab. avec l'Office de la langue française). Il nous semble plus sage d'utiliser des expressions descriptives, comme «prolifération de micro-organismes végétaux» ou «développement exubérant de plantes aquatiques». 2, record 1, French, - d%C3%A9veloppement%20exub%C3%A9rant%20de%20plantes%20aquatiques
