We tested the hypothesis that calanoid copepods would adapt to extended periods of Microcystis exposure by increasing selective feeding on alternative food. Copepod (Eudiaptomus gracilis) clearance ...

Harmful algal blooms create challenges around the globe for water quality and health risk management for humans, wildlife and pets. A team of researchers from the University of Oklahoma is leading an ...

While invasive zebra mussels consume small plant-like organisms called phytoplankton, researchers discovered during a long-term study that zebra mussels can actually increase Microcystis, a type of ...

Lake Erie has been spotted from space turning a lurid green as algae blooms across its surface, sparking warnings to "stay out of the water." The explosion in population of blue-green algae covered ...

We conducted population growth experiments for 22-30 days using three species of cladocerans measuring (adult mean length (μm) ± standard error): Daphnia pulex (2413 ± 129), Moina macrocopa (1286 ± 49 ...

Non-toxic algae is already forming on Lake Erie: you can already see it showing up from space, on some NASA satellite images. By now we know the causes of our late summer algae blooms, just like the ...
