Early Seasonal Increases and Persistence in Relative Abundance of Potentially Toxic Cyanobacteria: Concerning Impacts of Extended Ice-Free Periods in Northern Temperate Lakes

This study shows that potentially toxic cyanobacteria persist in northern temperate lakes year-round, with increased abundance linked to extended ice-free periods and nutrient availability.

Sporadic Diurnal Fluctuations of Cyanobacterial Populations in Oligotrophic Temperate Systems Can Prevent Accurate Characterization of Change and Risk in Aquatic Systems

This study shows that cyanobacterial populations fluctuate diurnally and across depths in oligotrophic lakes, highlighting the need for multi-timepoint and multi-depth sampling to accurately assess bloom risks.
