Description
Happy summer! We hope you can get out and enjoy your favorite lake(s) during this period of long daylight and warm (hot) days. During this time period, many of our lakes unfortunately become unusable because of problems that arise from warm water, excess nutrients, and all that summer sun. In particular, cyanobacteria blooms, also call cyanobacteria Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs), among other terms, are common during this summer season. Every other summer, we highlight current work and insights related to HABs, and so this issue of LakeLine brings together a range of articles focused on HABs.
