Florida has experienced multiple cyanobacteria blooms in recent years the most severe of
which occurred in 2016 and 2018. Several toxins are produced by proliferating …

Harmful algal blooms that can produce toxins are common in the Indian River Lagoon (IRL),
which covers~ 250 km of Florida's east coast. The current study assessed the dynamics of …

Ecological disturbances may result in mortality events that alter biotic communities and
ecosystems. In many coastal zones disturbances are increasing, including algal blooms and …

Few field trials examining hydrogen peroxide as a cyanobacterial harmful algal bloom
(cHAB) treatment have been conducted in subtropical and tropical regions. None have been …

Abstract Florida's Indian River Lagoon (IRL) has experienced large-scale, frequent blooms
of toxic harmful algae in recent decades. Sentinel, or indicator, species can provide an …

Many elasmobranch species utilize estuaries as nurseries, parturition areas, and foraging
grounds. Florida's Indian River Lagoon (IRL), an “estuary of national significance,” has …

The present study assessed the effective use of biochar for the adsorption of two potent HAB
toxins namely, Microcystin-LR (MCLR) and Saxitoxin (STX) through a combination of …

Mesozooplankton, as abundant grazers of microalgae in coastal systems, have the potential
to prevent or mitigate harmful algal blooms (HABs) and their effects. The Indian River …

Most cyanobacteria that form harmful algal blooms (HABs) in inland waterbodies can
overwinter in sediments. This field demonstration within an urban pond was conducted to …

Blue-green algal blooms can be found in fresh and salt waters across the United States as
well as globally. Despite growing concern about the impact of cyanotoxins produced by …
