Cyanobacteria bloom: selective filter for zooplankton? [PDF]
The Ibirité reservoir is an urban and eutrophic environment, with regular occurrences of cyanobacteria blooms. The reservoir is warm monomict and remains stratified most of the year, circulating in the dry season (winter).

Co-Occurrence of Toxic Bloom-Forming Cyanobacteria Planktothrix, Cyanophage, and Symbiotic Bacteria in Ohio Water Treatment Waste: Implications for Harmful Algal Bloom Management [PDF]
Cyanobacterial blooms are increasingly becoming more intense and frequent, posing a public health threat globally. Drinking water treatment plants that rely on algal bloom-affected waters may create waste (water treatment residuals, WTRs) that ...

Retracing cyanobacteria blooms in the Baltic Sea
In late summer, massive blooms and surface scums of cyanobacteria emerge regularly in the Baltic Sea. The bacteria can produce toxins and add bioavailable nitrogen fixed from atmospheric nitrogen to an already over-fertilized system.

First Application of IFCB High-Frequency Imaging-in-Flow Cytometry to Investigate Bloom-Forming Filamentous Cyanobacteria in the Baltic Sea [PDF]
Cyanobacteria are an important part of phytoplankton communities, however, they are also known for forming massive blooms with potentially deleterious effects on recreational use, human and animal health, and ecosystem functioning.

The Microcystis cyanobacteria bloom in the Swan River - February 2000
In February 2000 the Swan-Canning estuary in Western Australia experienced a record bloom of the toxic cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa. At its height, concentrations of M. aeruginosa reached integrated water column cell counts of 15,000/ml and formed bright green scums in sheltered bays, where counts of 130 million cells/ml were recorded.

Unusual massive phytoplankton bloom in the oligotrophic Lake Tanganyika [PDF]
Background and aims – Massive algae growth resulting in a phytoplankton bloom is a very rare event in the meromictic and oligotrophic Lake Tanganyika. Such a bloom was observed in the north of the lake in September 2018. Phytoplankton species composition

Blooms of Cyanobacteria on the Potomac River [PDF]
Blooms of cyanobacteria have appeared on the Potomac River near Washington, DC in years of drought and low river volume. The location of the bloom may be related to tidal activity. In 1983, the bloom of Microcystis aeruginosa used ammonia as its nitrogen source and contained low levels of toxic peptides.

Nitrogen fixed by cyanobacteria is utilized by deposit-feeders. [PDF]
Benthic communities below the photic zone depend for food on allochthonous organic matter derived from seasonal phytoplankton blooms. In the Baltic Sea, the spring diatom bloom is considered the most important input of organic matter, whereas the ...
