Earlier spring may explain dominance of the slow‐growing dinoflagellate Naiadinium polonicum over the cyanobacterium Microcystis during a heatwave

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Global warming and extreme weather events have been linked to a rise in cyanobacterial blooms, which threaten water quality and ecosystem services. However, during an extreme hot and dry summer, Microcystis was outcompeted by a dinoflagellate, Naiadinium polonicum, in a drinking water lake in southern Sweden.

About harmful algal blooms [PDF]

open access: yes
Algae are vitally important to marine and fresh-water ecosystems, and most species of algae are not harmful. However, a harmful algal bloom (HAB) can occur when certain types of microscopic algae grow quickly in water, forming visible patches that may ...

Mass mortality of aquatic organisms in the San Francisco Estuary – using community science to document the impacts of a severe harmful algal bloom

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
In July 2022, a harmful algal bloom of Heterosigma akashiwo originated in a man-made lagoon and expanded to more than 4,500 km² of open-water habitat in the San Francisco Estuary, triggering a widespread mass mortality event involving bony fishes, sharks,

Kelp‐boulder transplants for habitat restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Degraded habitats present a major barrier to the survival and recovery of threatened marine species, particularly where structural or biogenic complexity has been lost, and natural regeneration ability is uncertain. Despite growing interest in habitat restoration, techniques rarely deliver rapid improvements at the necessary ...

Red, white, and green? Applying agricultural technologies to treat algal blooms

open access: yesAgricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Summer often brings harmful algal blooms to ponds, lakes, and even the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. These blooms are caused by warm, shallow water with high levels of nutrients, especially phosphorus (P). Researchers from the USDA Agricultural Research Service developed phosphorus removal structures, called P‐Traps, to filter phosphorus ...

Species-specific chemical control of thiazolidinedione derivative (TD49) on harmful and non-harmful algal bloom species

open access: yes, 2012
To evaluate the algicidal effect of a newly developed algicide thiazolidinedione derivative, TD49, on non-harmful and harmful algal bloom (HAB) in aquatic ecosystems, culture experiments for twenty three target strains were conducted.
