Social Construction of Cyanobacteria Blooms in Quebec [PDF]
SAGE Open, 2017 Using a political ecology perspective, this research examines the social issues of cyanobacteria. In Québec (Canada), public health officials issue warnings concerning water-related activities and water consumption. An ethnographic study was undertaken with the aim of gaining a better understanding of the attitudes of citizens toward cyanobacteria and ...

Cyanobacteria blooms produce teratogenic retinoic acids [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012 Deformed amphibians have been observed in eutrophic habitats, and some clues point to the retinoic acids (RAs) or RA mimics. However, RAs are generally thought of as vertebrate-specific hormones, and there was no evidence that RAs exist in cyanobacteria or algae blooms.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Increased anthropogenic nutrient loading has led to eutrophication of aquatic ecosystems, which is the major cause of harmful cyanobacteria blooms. Element stoichiometry of cyanobacteria bloom is subject to nutrient availabilities and may significantly ...

Seasonal constraints on the burial of organic carbon in the eutrophic Lake Taihu
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Eutrophication alters the function of lake ecosystems through phytoplankton blooms and is a major contributor to organic carbon (OC) burial in lakes worldwide.

Dark side of cyanobacteria: searching for strategies to control blooms [PDF]
Microbial Biotechnology, 2021 Summary Cyanobacteria are ecologically one of the most prolific groups of photosynthetic prokaryotes in marine and freshwater habitats. They are primary producer microorganisms and are involved in the production of important secondary metabolites, including toxic compounds such as cyanotoxins.

Phanerozoic Large Igneous Province, Petroleum System, and Source Rock Links
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 191-228., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
