What Does OD Stand For?

OD stands for Oxygen Drain

Oxygen Drain (OD) refers to the process or phenomenon whereby the levels of dissolved oxygen in a body of water decrease, often due to biological respiration, decomposition, or pollution. This decline in oxygen can adversely affect aquatic life, leading to hypoxic conditions that threaten ecosystems and biodiversity. Understanding and monitoring Oxygen Drain is crucial for effective water resource management and environmental protection.
