Microcystis species are some of the most prevent blue green algae in freshwater ecosystems.

Fish Toxins Could Kill Fish Due To Harmful Algal Bloom In California, According To Report
In well-known swimming and fishing spots throughout California, a form of toxic algae has been found that can sicken people. According to a Newsweek investigation, these hazardous algal blooms (HABs) have been seen in a number of areas, including Indian Creek Reservoir, 30 miles southwest of Lake Tahoe. The California Water Quality Monitoring Council also found "dangerous" levels of algal toxins and a toxic algal bloom associated with the red tide in San Francisco Bay, Clear Lake, Lake Crowley, and Bridgeport Reservoir, the outlet added.
In a body of water, a colony of algae (cyanobacteria, dinoflagellates, or diatoms) grows quickly, which is frequently sped up by changes in the water's nutrition or temperature. These algae can be harmful if consumed, in addition to producing poisons that could poison people and animals who come into contact with them.
Enviroscienceinc.com claims that a harmful algal bloom's (HAB) ability to produce toxins at a certain time and location may be influenced by a variety of environmental factors and may change over time.
These lethal poisons have the power to sicken humans and even endanger cattle, domestic pets, and wild animals. These HABs alter the flavour and odour of public water sources in addition to producing toxins.
The recommended maximum levels of the most common of these algal toxins in drinking water and recreational lakes are exceedingly low.

More photos from this story about activists tackling #climatechange in Stockton, CA for @palabranahj and @capradio. “The Vibe of It All” by Ezra David Romero is part of a collection of stories from @palabranahj chronicling the lives of the people least able to adapt safely to climate change. Read the full story at the link in my bio. “Nicholas Hatten is an LGBTQ+ activist who lives next to a slough choked with thick, green algae. The blooms are getting worse as waters warm, said Barbara Barrigan-Parrilla. Barrigan-Parrilla’s environmental group, Restore the Delta, began sounding a statewide alarm about these blooms in 2019. If consumed, the algae could kill a dog or make a child sick, she said. But even though the algae is another source of atmosphere-warming air pollution right next to disadvantaged communities, the city’s climate grant doesn’t have enough funds to address the problem. Nor does Restore the Delta have money for aggressive monitoring.” 1) Harmful algal blooms along the waterfront in Stockton, CA. 2) As average temperatures climb in California’s Central Valley, algal blooms are more frequent on waterways, like the end point of the Port of Stockton, near the city’s downtown. 3) Nicholas Hatten, an environmental justice advocate, poses for a portrait near the slough behind his apartment in Stockton, CA. Hatten is a Black LGBT advocate who lives near harmful algal blooms. #climatechange #stocktonca #climatejustice #algalbloom (at Stockton, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJKNT3lllOR/?igshid=n71o5ndin2t3

Algal blooms are integral part of marine ecosystem. A small stretch of algal bloom is known as mini bloom and a large stretch of algal bloom is known as macrobloom having a stretch in kilometers.

An underwater view of algal bloom Algal or algae bloom is a rapid growth/accumulation of microscopic algae in water systems. The threshold for such bloom remains undefined. These images gives an underwater view of how these colonies thrive. Sometimes, these blooms can be harmful to ecology. I am not sure what species they consist, but they might be of filamentous type. The last image is the field of view. #algae #algalbloom #algaebloom #eutrophication #waterquality #nature #green #botany #plant #science #sciencelove #microbiology #microscopy #pondlife #sealife #microalgae #australia #studentlife #unilife #inaturalist #artandscience #greengrammers #underwater #underwaterphotography #underwaterworld #underwaterpics #olympus #olympustg5 (at Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzAxAcBlO3r/?igshid=p1hdbo95f91d

Fact : Harmful algal bloom (HABs) occurs when colonies of algae - simple plants that live in the sea & fresh water - grow out of control while producing toxic or harmful effects on people, fish, shellfish, marine mammals, & birds .
