Environmentally driven risk assessment for algal bloom occurrence in shallow lakes by Peipei Zhang, Jingqiao Mao, Haibin Cai, Wenqin Huang, Shijie Zhu, Tengfei Hu

“…It is noted that for the closed shallow lake, the influence of hydrodynamics can be indirectly reflected by the variation of wind speed; and, total phosphorus, water temperature, photosynthetically active radiation, and average wind speed could be used as major bloom-driving factors in Taihu Lake generally. …”

Responses of Marine Diatom–Dinoflagellate Interspecific Competition to Different Phosphorus Sources by Anglu Shen, Hongyue Liu, Quandong Xin, Qingjing Hu, Xinliang Wang, Jufa Chen

“…In contrast, we investigated the growth interactions among the major bloom-forming marine diatom <i>Skeletonema costatum</i> and dinoflagellates <i>Prorocentrum donghaiense</i> and <i>Karenia mikimotoi</i> by using bi-algal cultures combined with DIP and DOP. …”

In Situ Molecular Ecological Analyses Illuminate Distinct Factors Regulating Formation and Demise of a Harmful Dinoflagellate Bloom by Liying Yu, Tangcheng Li, Hongfei Li, Minglei Ma, Ling Li, Senjie Lin

“…The findings suggest the importance of energy and nutrients in promoting this K. longicanalis bloom and the failure of antimicrobial defense and competition of diatoms as the major bloom suppressor and terminator. This study provides novel insights into bloom-regulating mechanisms and the first transcriptomic data set of K. longicanalis, which will be a valuable resource and essential foundation for further elucidation of bloom regulators of this and related species of Kareniaceae in the future. …”

The response of marine pelagic calcifiers to ocean alkalinity enhancement as a carbon dioxide removal technique by Gill, SJ

“…Therefore, larger populations of this major bloom-forming coccolithophore could contribute to an overall increased amount of calcification and re-release of atmospheric CO2. …”

Near-ubiquity of ice-edge blooms in the Arctic by M. Perrette, A. Yool, G. D. Quartly, E. E. Popova

“…The bloom peak is on average more than 1 mg m&lt;sup&gt;−3&lt;/sup&gt;, with major blooms more than 10 mg m&lt;sup&gt;−3&lt;/sup&gt;, and is usually located close to the ice-edge, though not always. …”
