Lake Erie supplies drinking water to more than 11 million consumers, processes millions of
gallons of wastewater, provides important species habitat and supports a substantial …

Relieving phosphorus loading is a key management tool for controlling Lake Erie
eutrophication. During the 1960s and 1970s, increased phosphorus inputs degraded water …

The midwestern United States offers some of the most productive agricultural soils in the
world. Given the cool humid climate, much of the region would not be able to support …

Although cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (CHABs) are promoted by nutrient loading
and elevated temperatures, the effects of these processes on bloom diversity are unclear …

Abstract Information about the loads of total and soluble reactive phosphorus entering Lake
Erie is required in order to support commitments made under Annex 4 of the Great Lakes …

Lake Erie has undergone re-eutrophication beginning in the 1990s, even though total
phosphorus (TP) loads to the lake continued to slowly decline. Using our 1982 and 2007–10 …

With increasing pressure placed on natural systems by growing human populations, both
scientists and resource managers need a better understanding of the relationships between …

Both abiotic and biotic explanations have been proposed to explain recent recurrent
nuisance/harmful algal blooms in the western basin and central basin of Lake Erie. We used …

Based primarily on data collected over the past four decades by Environment Canada, long‐
term trends of eutrophication‐related variables are developed for the offshore waters of the …

Blooms of the toxic cyanobacteria, Microcystis aeruginosa, have been both a public health
and ecological concern in Lake Erie for over a decade. Although models were previously …
