When populations of tiny aquatic organisms called cyanobacteria (formerly known as blue-green algae) explode, their toxic ...

growing out of control and forming harmful algal blooms in lakes and in the ocean, where they’re often called “red tides.” Some of these, such as those created by cyanobacteria, can release ...

Eutrophication is a leading cause of impairment of many freshwater and coastal ... minimize the intensity and frequency of algal and cyanobacterial blooms (Paerl & Paul 2012).

Researchers at Florida Atlantic University (FAU) have discovered an innovative method to tackle this problem by turning harmful algae into a powerful tool for cleaning water. Their study, published in ...

A bloom of cyanobacteria, also called blue-green algae for its colorful, scum-like appearance, formed in Detroit Reservoir, the manmade lake on the Santiam River that is the Oregon capital’s drinking ...

To try to understand how harmful algal blooms might evolve in Lake Erie in a warming climate, University of Michigan scientists helped conduct a survey of cyanobacteria in a gulf of Kenya's Lake ...

In a significant breakthrough, researchers have developed an advanced explainable deep learning model to predict and analyze harmful algal blooms (HABs) in freshwater lakes and reservoirs across ...

HABs caused by cyanobacteria (blue-green algae ... Any method used to treat harmful algal blooms must ensure that the cells remain intact to prevent the release of these toxins into the aquatic ...

When cyanobacteria proliferate out of control, they can form clouds of green algae called cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms, or cyanoHABs. Some types of cyanobacteria produce toxins, and so ...
