Abstract

Recycling of sediment nutrient stockpiles drive system regime change, facilitating cyanobacteria domination and succession

(Cottingham, K. L., Ewing, H. A., Greer, M. L., Carey, C. C., & Weathers, K. C. (2015). Cyanobacteria as biological drivers of lake nitrogen and phosphorus cycling. Ecosphere, 6(1), 1-19.)

Digestion and elimination os organic sediments at the rate of over 1 000m3 per acre per annum have proven to be a key factor in reversing the system regime change and preventing cyanobacteria HABs

High resolution bathymetric scans quantify this sediment reduction. Phycological profiling and Dept Health monitoring shows prevention of cyanobacteria HABs.
