Microplastics and nanoplastics in water: Improving removal in wastewater treatment plants with alternative coagulants

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
The contaminant removal performance of a conventional coagulant, alum, and alternative coagulants, aluminium chlorohydrate (ACH) and ACH + pDADMC, are compared in challenging wastewater treatment conditions (pH >7.8). The interactions of each coagulant with a negatively charged surface are depicted based on quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation ...

The need for advancing algal bloom forecasting using remote sensing and modeling: Progress and future directions

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Algal blooms are often major drivers of environmental and economic challenges. As these blooms increase in frequency and size, there is an increasing need for forecasting models to accurately predict their occurrence and progression.

Development and collapse of an Oscillatoria bloom in Loch Leven during July 1994 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
During 1994, weekly spot-sampling of open water sites on Loch Leven took place from 16th March onwards. Very little difference between spot-sampling sites was observed from 16th March to 5th July.

Harmful algal blooms [PDF]

open access: yesFact Sheet, 2007
Freshwater and marine harmful algal blooms (HABs) can occur anytime water use is impaired due to excessive accumulations of algae. HAB occurrence is affected by a complex set of physical, chemical, biological, hydrological, and meteorological conditions making it difficult to isolate specific causative environmental factors.

Harmful algal blooms and public health [PDF]

open access: yesHarmful Algae, 2016
The five most commonly recognized Harmful Algal Bloom related illnesses include Ciguatera poisoning, Paralytic Shellfish poisoning, Neurotoxin Shellfish poisoning, Diarrheic Shellfish Poisoning and Amnesic Shellfish poisoning. Although they are each the product of different toxins, toxin assemblages or HAB precursors these clinical syndromes have much ...

Algal Blooms in Lakes Increase After Wildfire Smoke Events in the Contiguous United States

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
Temporary pulses of surface chlorophyll‐a are identified following wildfire smoke events in lakes and reservoirs across the United States. ABSTRACT Area burned by wildfire has increased in the contiguous United States and in many places globally in recent years, impacting communities and ecosystems nearby and even far downwind of fires. We examined the

A Comparative Analysis of Machine Learning Methods for Algal Bloom Detection Using Remote Sensing Images

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2023
Algal blooms are a major environmental challenge for lakes and reservoirs and pose severe threats to water on both aquatic and human health. Conventional algorithms used for algal bloom detection based on remote sensing reflectance proved to be effective

What is “accuracy”? Rethinking machine learning classifier performance metrics for highly imbalanced, high variance, zero‐inflated species count data

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Machine learning has opened the door for the automated sorting (classification) of images, holograms and acoustic backscatters of individual plankton, invertebrates, fish and marine mammals. However, this field is complicated by decades of paradoxically promising reports of classifier performance that do not correlate with real‐world uptake of
