Definition of Eutrophication:
(1) An increase in the supply of organic matter.[1]
(2) A condition in an aquatic ecosystem where high nutrient concentrations stimulate growth of algae which leads to imbalanced functioning of the system.[2] This is the common definition for Eutrophication, other definitions can be discussed in the article

Notes
High primary production boosted by eutrophication usually leads to oxygen depletion caused by decay of organic matter.
