Abstract
Abstract Gorney RM, June SG, Stainbrook KM, Smith AJ. 2023. Detections of cyanobacteria harmful algal blooms (cynanoHABs) in New York State, United States (2012–2020). Lake Reserv Manage. 39:21–36. Patterns in frequency, intensity, and duration of cyanobacteria harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) were evaluated in New York State from 2012 to 2020. The dataset included information from formal monitoring efforts, beach closures, and public reports. The total dataset included more than 24,000 records from 655 waterbodies and included cyanoHAB reports from 477 lakes. Nearly half of those lakes (49.6%) had only 1 year in which a cyanoHAB was documented. Less than 1% (6 lakes) had cyanoHABs documented in every year of the study. We noted a significant increase in the number of cyanoHABs reports each year (P < 0.001), but not an overall increase in intensity, based on evaluation of chlorophyll levels in mid-lake samples collected on a routine basis. The analysis indicated that cyanoHABs duration did not lengthen over the study period, based on beach closure data captured on a daily observation basis. This study addresses the limitations of monitoring data for analysis of patterns in cyanoHABs, based on the structure of the programs and frequency of observations. We provide retrospective feedback on the design of monitoring programs to improve future data collection and our ability to evaluate cyanoHABs in a wide range of waterbodies.
期刊介绍:
Lake and Reservoir Management (LRM) publishes original, previously unpublished studies relevant to lake and reservoir management. Papers address the management of lakes and reservoirs, their watersheds and tributaries, along with the limnology and ecology needed for sound management of these systems. Case studies that advance the science of lake management or confirm important management concepts are appropriate as long as there is clearly described management significance. Papers on economic, social, regulatory and policy aspects of lake management are also welcome with appropriate supporting data and management implications. Literature syntheses and papers developing a conceptual foundation of lake and watershed ecology will be considered for publication, but there needs to be clear emphasis on management implications. Modeling papers will be considered where the model is properly verified but it is also highly preferable that management based on the model has been taken and results have been documented. Application of known models to yet another system without a clear advance in resultant management are unlikely to be accepted. Shorter notes that convey important early results of long-term studies or provide data relating to causative agents or management approaches that warrant further study are acceptable even if the story is not yet complete. All submissions are subject to peer review to assure relevance and reliability for management application.
