Toxin production by harmful cyanobacteria blooms (CyanoHABs) constitutes a major,
worldwide environmental threat to freshwater aquatic resources that is expected to expand …

The book presents the results of long-term (1953–2014) research of phytoplankton of nine
reservoirs of the Volga River basin, situated in various natural-climatic zones. The catalogue …

Abstract The St. Lucie Estuary, located on the southeast coast of Florida, provides an
example of a subtropical ecosystem where seasonal changes in temperature are modest …

A mixed bloom of Microcystis aeruginosa forma aeruginosa and forma flos-aquae from the
Swan River, Western Australia, was confirmed toxic by HPLC analysis. At least four, and …

In 1992, we discovered populations of the nonindigenous quagga mussel Dreissena
rostriformis bugensis in the middle reaches of the Volga River. The same species was found …

The concentration of microcystin (MC) in the Kucukcekmece Lagoon, Istanbul, Turkey, and
the physicochemical and biological parameters of water quality were investigated from …

Freshwater abstraction for human activities threatens the health and provisioning of
ecosystem services supplied by aquatic ecosystems. Estuaries are sensitive to a reduction …

Abstract Changes in phytoplankton communities due to anthropogenic nutrient load and
climate change often lead to eutrophication and harmful algal blooms that can affect …

Estuaries provide valuable ecosystem services but are threatened by eutrophication caused
by increasing nutrient concentrations and climatic factors. We tested the hypothesis that cool …

Evaluation of changes in Baltic Sea phytoplankton communities has been hampered by a
lack of quantitative long-term data. We investigated changes in biomass of summer (June …
