Effects of terrestrial dissolved organic matter on a bloom of the toxic cyanobacteria, Raphidiopsis raciborskii [PDF]
The concentration of coloured terrestrial dissolved organic matter (tDOM) from vegetation appears to be increasing in lakes in some regions of the world, leading to the term brownification.

Last 5 years, the deterioration of water quality caused by algal bloom has emerged as a serious issue in Korea. The method of on-site water sampling to check algal bloom and cyanobacteria is problematic by only partially measuring the site and not fully ...

Development and field assessment of a quantitative PCR for the detection and enumeration of the noxious bloom-former Anabaena planktonica [PDF]
Anabaena planktonica is a harmful, bloom-forming freshwater cyanobacterium, which has arrived recently in New Zealand. In the short time since its incursion (

Hindcasting cyanobacterial communities in Lake Okaro with germination experiments and genetic analyses [PDF]
Cyanobacterial blooms are becoming increasingly prevalent worldwide. Sparse historic phytoplankton records often result in uncertainty as to whether bloom-forming species have always been present and are proliferating in response to eutrophication or ...

Hypoxia Sustains Cyanobacteria Blooms in the Baltic Sea
Nutrient over-enrichment is one of the classic triggering mechanisms for the occurrence of cyanobacteria blooms in aquatic ecosystems. In the Baltic Sea, cyanobacteria regularly occur in the late summer months and form nuisance accumulations in surface waters and their abundance has intensified significantly in the past 50 years attributed to human ...

Cyanobacteria Blooms in the Baltic Sea: A Review of Models and Facts [PDF]
Abstract. The ecosystem of the Baltic Sea is endangered by eutrophication. This has triggered expensive international management efforts. Some of these efforts are impeded by natural processes such as nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria blooms that add bioavailable nitrogen to the already over-fertilised system and thereby enhance primary production, export ...

UVB Radiation as a Potential Selective Factor Favoring Microcystin Producing Bloom Forming Cyanobacteria [PDF]
Due to the stratospheric ozone depletion, several organisms will become exposed to increased biologically active UVB (280-320nm) radiation, not only at polar but also at temperate and tropical latitudes.

Phanerozoic Large Igneous Province, Petroleum System, and Source Rock Links
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.

Recent occurrence of Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii, in Waikato lakes of New Zealand. [PDF]
Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii is a toxin-producing species of cyanobacteria that in autumn 2003 was recorded for the first time in three shallow (max. depth ≤5 m) Waikato lakes and a hydro-electric dam on the Waikato River, New Zealand.
