Yesterday we spent the day with a few students from the @uoftoledo as they took samples for the EPA of the algae bloom on western #LakeErie. This aerial perspective here is of our boat cutting a line through the bloom to help give scale to the seemingly endless green, extending for miles and miles into the horizon. What you’re seeing here is a problem that has been going on for decades, brought on by excess phosphorus & pollutants in the water. When temperatures increase these blooms break out, which is unfortunately only increasing due to a proven rise in temperatures directly corollated with climate change. It’s an uphill battle but I’m grateful for the hard work researchers are doing in the field. With no end in sight the best that can be done is this dedicated ongoing research, we can’t give up.

I live off of Lake Michigan here in south east Wisconsin. I’m surprised the lake is warm enough to harbor this. Our lake is ice cold year round. Although we have other pollutants such as Foxconn coming in and the water treatment plant dumping our waste right into the water. Can see the two waters separate. Truly disturbing and unnatural.

@ladzinski here in Manitoba there are resesrchers from the International Institute for Sustainable Development looking into the use of duckweed to reduce phosphorus in retention ponds prior to releasing the water back into our lakes as we are having the same algae bloom issues. The research is promising!

I guess there is no natural enemy or it would not be such a problem. Being dangerous to introduce a foreign combatant, it seems like there is no way out. Surely someone with deep pockets and a sincere interest in this problem will come along and go to work on it.

An acute case of eutrophication. This practically reduces the dissolved oxygen content by a great deal. Wonder with the extent of the algal bloom over the years, as reported, how the species that are surviving have evolved.

Just like the same thing that happened off of the coast of Florida last year. That is horrifying for both wildlife and humans. I'm always in awe of your interpretation in the photo.💜
