Shifting ice phenology and ice extent linked to harmful algal bloom severity
Abstract Ice cover on lakes can have far‐reaching and profound effects on ecosystem structure and function. However, the duration and spatial extent of ice cover is changing rapidly with warming aquatic ecosystems. This loss of ice creates an urgent need to understand how lakes will function without ice cover, both during the ice‐on and ice‐free season,

Initial Assessment of the Detectability of Cyanotoxin Occurrence Using PACE Satellite Observations
Abstract Microcystin is a major public health hazard during freshwater cyanobacterial blooms, yet its remote detection remains challenging because it lacks any direct optical absorption features. We demonstrate that hyperspectral observations from NASA's PACE Ocean Color Instrument (OCI) can be used to detect elevated microcystin concentrations by ...

Biosensors for Biotoxins Detection and Monitoring
This review examines state‐of‐the‐art biosensing platforms for biotoxin detection, including antibody‐, aptamer‐, CRISPR‐, nanopore‐, whole cells‐ and MIP‐based sensors. It highlights advances in ultra‐sensitive detection, real‐matrix validation in food and water, and multiplexed analysis, and discusses how the integration with machine learning ...
