Microcystins in components of twelve New Hampshire lakes of varied trophic status [PDF]
, 1999 Cyanobacteria toxins, called microcystins (MCs), were found in components of twelve, stratified New Hampshire (USA) lakes of varied trophic status during the summer of 1998.

Removal of Sea Lettuce, Ulva spp., in Estuaries to Improve the Environments for Invertebrates, Fish, Wading Birds, and Eelgrass, Zostera marina [PDF]
, 2005 Mats (biomasses) of macroalgae, i.e. Ulva spp., Enteromorpha spp., Graciolaria spp., and Cladophora spp., have increased markedly over the past 50 years, and they cover much larger areas than they once did in many estuaries of the world.

Ecophysiological perspectives of blue-green algal blooms [PDF]
, 2001 Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) have had a profound and unparalled impact on the aquatic environment because of the phenomenon of bloom formation. In many countries, water management is threatened with extensive and persistent noxious blooms of blue ...

Spring inter monsoon algal blooms in the Eastern Arabian sea: Shallow marine encounter off Karwar and Kumbla Coast using a Hyperspectral radiometer [PDF]
, 2010 We encountered the presence of algal blooms in the shallow coastal waters; typical of case II conditions off Karwar (Karnataka) and Kumbla (Kerala), eastern Arabian Sea during the Inter Monsoon.

Bio-Optical Environmental Assessments of Marginal Seas - Progress Report2 [PDF]
, 2005 Algal blooms in the Mediterranean Sea have been studied by means of SeaWiFS derived (1998-2003) data on chlorophyll-like pigment concentration. Statistics of blooming anomalies, as well as comparisons with analogous data collected in situ, were used to ...

, 1993 This is the final report on the research project to develop predictive models to quantify algal blooms in relation to environmental variables. The project's objectives were to develop models simulating the impact of vertical structure and mass transfer upon the dynamics of planktonic algae, including cyanobacteria, in lakes and reservoirs, to assess ...

A Eutrophication Model of the White River Basin Above Beaver Reservoir in Northwest Arkansas [PDF]
, 1973 With national interest focused on man’s ever increasing degradation of the waters in this nation, it is clearly evident that an accurate assessment of all parameters influencing water quality needs to be made.

A turbulent diatom vs dinoflagellate phytoplankton biomass model [PDF]
, 2013 Phytoplankton blooms play an important role in global primary productivity and the dynamics of blooms are of interest to modellers. Diatom dominated phytoplankton blooms followed by dinoflagellate blooms are common in the Southern Benguela, and are often
