An interdisciplinary and multiagency study was conducted in southern Florida to examine harmful algal bloom (HAB) dynamics on the Caloosahatchee River, which drains from Lake Okeechobee to the west into the Gulf of Mexico. Using in-situ mesocosm experiments, ammonium, nitrate, phosphate, and urea were altered from ambient conditions to determine the effects on cyanotoxin biosynthesis gene presence and quantity as measured via quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Eight experiments were conducted seasonally from May 2019 through July 2021 at the W.P. Franklin Lock and Dam. The experimental installations consisted of three floating metal cradles each containing four opaque fiberglass chambers filled with...

An interdisciplinary and multiagency study was undertaken to study harmful algal bloom (HAB) dynamics on the Caloosahatchee River, which drains to the west from Lake Okeechobee into the Gulf of Mexico. Algae and cyanobacteria play crucial roles in aquatic ecosystems, but under favorable environmental conditions certain taxa may experience population growth booms resulting in HABs. Four independent mesocosm experiments were conducted in September 2019, June 2020, September 2020, and February 2021 to capture natural temporal variability in water quality and phytoplankton assemblages. The experimental installation consisted of three floating metal cradles each containing four fiberglass chambers filled with native...

Quantitative phytoplankton data was collected as part of an interdisciplinary and multiagency experimental study investigating harmful algal bloom (HAB) dynamics in the Caloosahatchee River located in southwestern Florida. Algae and cyanobacteria play crucial roles in aquatic ecosystems, but under favorable environmental conditions such as nutrient enrichment certain taxa may experience population growth booms resulting in HABs. HABs are becoming increasing common in the Caloosahatchee and the Lake Okeechobee system, yet the drivers and processes controlling these events is still under investigation. Here, three independent mesocosm experiments were conducted on the Caloosahatchee River at the W. P. Franklin Lock...
