A DEPTH-EXPLICIT TRANSECT-BASED METHODOLOGY FOR CHAB VISUALIZATION IN INLAND WATERS

Cyanobacterial Harmful Algal Blooms (CHABs) in inland waters have been increasing in frequency as warm summer temperatures and nutrient pollution become more common. CHABs can be monitored in a variety of ways including whole-lake remote sensing from satellites or aircraft, real-time lake monitoring, and discrete sampling with laboratory quantification. Remote-sensing has the benefit of quantifying a CHAB simultaneously across the entire surface of a water body, but is limited in that subsurface cyanobacteria cannot be accurately quantified to depth in turbid or deep waters. Here we present a transect-based methodology that allows for subsurface CHAB visualization in inland waters. This methodology has particular applicability to CHAB monitoring/visualization along environmental gradients such as those found along the lotic-lentic transition in reservoirs.
