Bloom and Bust: Historical Trends of Harmful Algal Blooms in Muskegon Lake | Bloom and Bust: Historical Trends of Harmful Algal Blooms in Muskegon Lake, Michigan, a Great Lakes Estuary | Around the world, freshwater lakes are increasingly suffering from harmful algal blooms (HABs) as a result of anthropogenic eutrophication. Muskegon Lake (Muskegon, Michigan, USA), a drowned river mouth, Great Lakes estuary, was declared an Area of Concern by the Environmental Protection Agency in 1987 with nuisance algal blooms cited as a beneficial-use impairment. The objective of this study was to quantify changes in HAB prevalence and assemblage composition in Muskegon Lake over 14 y (2003–2016) and explore the environmental factors potentially driving the changes. | 2MB |
