Journal ArticleDOI
Summer heatwaves promote blooms of harmful cyanobacteria
TL;DR: In this paper, a coupled biological-physical model was developed to investigate how competition for light between buoyant cyanobacteria, diatoms and green algae in eutrophic lakes is affected by the meteorological conditions of this extreme summer heatwave.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in turbulent mixing shift competition for light between phytoplankton species
Jef Huisman,Jonathan Sharples,J. Stroom,Petra M. Visser,W. Edwin A. Kardinaal,Jolanda M. H. Verspagen,Ben Sommeijer +6 more
TL;DR: Competition theory is developed that predicts how changes in turbulent mixing affect competition for light between buoyant and sinking phytoplankton species, and warns that changes in the turbulence structure of natural waters, for instance driven by climate change, may induce major shifts in the species composition of phytopsized communities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Artificial mixing to reduce growth of the blue-green alga Microcystis in Lake Nieuwe Meer, Amsterdam: an evaluation of 7 years of experience
TL;DR: In Lake Nieuwe Meer as mentioned in this paper, a bubble plume installation has been used to prevent scum forming in the lake. But it has not been shown to improve the transparency of the lake and the temperature on the surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
How to combat cyanobacterial blooms: strategy toward preventive lake restoration and reactive control measures
J. Stroom,W. Edwin A. Kardinaal +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a three-phase strategy to fight harmful cyanobacterial proliferation is presented, which consists of defining the ecological water quality targets of the waterbody in question, assessing its current ecological state, and selecting which measures will yield optimal results.
