The Impact of Cyanobacteria Blooms on the Aquatic Environment and Human Health
Cyanobacteria blooms are a global aquatic environment problem. In recent years, due to global warming and water eutrophication, the surface cyanobacteria accumulate in a certain area to form cyanobacteria blooms driven by wind.

Cyanobacteria evolution: Insight from the fossil record
Cyanobacteria played an important role in the evolution of Early Earth and the biosphere. They are responsible for the oxygenation of the atmosphere and oceans since the Great Oxidation Event around 2.4 Ga, debatably earlier.

Photoautotrophs and macroinvertebrate trophic relations in calcareous semiarid streams: The role of Cyanobacteria [PDF]
Photoautotrophs and macroinvertebrate trophic relations in Mediterranean streams, especially from semiarid areas, are still poorly known, as is the role of Cyanobacteria, which is the most frequently dominant photoautotroph.

A Review of Microalgae- and Cyanobacteria-Based Biodegradation of Organic Pollutants
This review proposes a new bioremediation method based on the diverse functionalities of algae. A greenway for cleansing wastewater is more ecologically friendly and environmentally sustainable than prior methods with other bacteria.
