Harmful Algal Blooms and Aquaculture
Harmful Algal Blooms and how they are Linked to Aquaculture
Abstract
Harmful algal blooms cause a wide range of negative effects on aquaculture. These effects are come from the complexity of harmful algal species; the toxins they create and morphology they have adapted. Science still lacks a full understanding of factors that are envolved in blooms formation. Aquaculture and harmful algal blooms are directly related because it is one of many anthropogenic factors that unintentionally produce the conditions that promote harmful algal blooms. The methods of production, feeds used, waste produced can lead to nutrient loading and eutrophic conditions by releasing essential nutrients into water that are necessary for algal growth. Phosphorus and nitrogen compounds are two of the main byproducts or aquaculture that are associated with bloom formation. To minimize the effects of harmful algal blooms on aquaculture you must understand the diversity and complexity of harmful algal blooms and their relationship with aquaculture.

    Discussion Questions 1. Phytoplankton are the organisms that were the most abundant in my sample, specifically from the Protista kingdom 2. I think that phytoplankton are more indicative of oligotrophic lakes, where-as zooplankton are more indicative of eutrophic lakes. I think this because, since phytoplankton are capable of producing their own energy, they don't need the nutrients that eutrophic lakes offer, and they would probably prefer all the sunlight in the oligotrophic lakes which they would need to photosynthesize. The opposite is true for zooplankton, they depend on the nutrients from eutrophic lakes and they do not enjoy sunlight. 3. If pool algaecide was spilled in Lake St.George it would greatly damage the natural habitat and it would be hazardous to the habitants of the lake. Also, because Lake St.George drains into other lakes, it would not only harm Lake St.George but it may also harm the lakes that it feeds into. 4.
