Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs), Cyanotoxins, Nutrient management, Agricultural impactsAbstract
Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms are becoming more frequent and intense in many regions, threatening drinking water, irrigation, livestock watering and aquaculture, and some produce toxins that can harm people and animals. This paper explains what drives blooms, how their toxins reach farms and food, and how long-term nutrient reduction and site-specific treatment can manage them.
