Exploiting algal strains for robust cross‐domain phytoplankton classification via deep learning

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Phytoplankton species are essential bioindicators for evaluating the status of freshwater ecosystems in accordance with the EU Water Framework Directive. However, manual identification of phytoplankton is time‐consuming and requires taxonomic expertise. Deep learning (DL) offers promising tools for automating the identification, but challenges

A novel artificial intelligence–powered cell counting tool coupled with digital microscopy for rapid field‐assessment of harmful cyanobacterial blooms

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Historical quantification of cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cHABs) typically involved labor‐intensive manual cell counting. We developed a novel, cost‐effective, field‐validated system to perform cell counts of six common toxin‐producing cyanobacterial genera within 30 s of upload with 10‐min sample preparation.

AEDMA-NDMAI: Automatic Extraction and Daily Monitoring of Algal Blooms Using Normalized Difference MODIS Algae Index

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Algal blooms are ecological phenomena with long-lasting effects on the ecosystem and on the climate. Often, they reduce the oxygen level underwater, creating adverse circumstances for aquatic species’ survival, development, and reproduction.

Using environmental DNA to detect Microseira wollei (Oscillatoriales), a benthic harmful algal bloom, in Lake St. Clair (Michigan, USA)

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Microseira wollei is a benthic cyanobacterium that can cause harmful algal blooms (HABs) and often requires management. However, a pervasive challenge for M. wollei management is characterizing the spatial and temporal extent of an impacted area, which can be time and resource intensive.

Lessons learned from mesocosm experiments with curcumin: Pilot studies of a harmful algal bloom mitigation technique

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Curcumin, a natural plant product derived from Curcuma longa, was assessed as a mitigation technique against the toxic bloom‐forming dinoflagellate Karenia brevis in two mesocosm experiments taking place in 2022 and 2024. In these experiments, curcumin was applied at a dosage of 5 mg L−1 to K.

Quantifying the contribution of community trait mean and diversity to ecosystem functioning

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Hundreds of experiments conducted over the last decades demonstrate a positive relationship between species diversity and ecosystem functions. Following good experimental practice, most of these studies have manipulated species richness artificially by assembling communities randomly. Yet, natural communities along ecological gradients often show niche‐
