Integrating phytoplankton phenology, traits, and model‐data fusion to advance bloom prediction

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.
Abstract While there is a diversity of approaches for modeling phytoplankton blooms, their accuracy in predicting the onset and manifestation of a bloom is still lagging behind what is needed to support effective management. We outline a framework that integrates trait theory and ecosystem modeling to improve bloom prediction.

Biomineralization of primary carbonate cements: a new biosignature in the fossil record from the Anisian of Southern Italy

open access: yesLethaia, EarlyView., 2021
Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

Salinity is diagnostic of maximum potential chlorophyll and phytoplankton community structure in an Eastern Boundary Upwelling System

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.
Abstract Coastal upwelling ecosystems associated with strong physical stirring exhibit significant mesoscale hydrographic and biological patchiness. Though many studies have found broad correlations between hydrographic properties (e.g., temperature and salinity) and phytoplankton biomass, we lack a detailed understanding of the mechanisms underlying ...

Road salt pollution shifts urban stormwater ponds toward cyanobacterial dominance

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban environments contend with an array of stressors, including salinization by deicing road salts. To advance understanding of how road salt pollution affects aquatic ecosystem functioning, we surveyed primary producers in 50 stormwater ponds in Brampton, Canada.

Machine learning approach to study microboring assemblage dynamics in two living massive coral genera

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract The coral host comprises various microorganisms including those living in its skeleton. In coral skeletons, bioeroding microflora (cyanobacteria, algae, and fungi), which play an important role in reefs and coral resilience, produce specific traces (microborings) by actively dissolving the carbonate.

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.

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.
