Riverbed blue-green algae, referred to as “cyanobacteria,” can create algal blooms that produce toxins harmful to aquatic life, pets, livestock and humans.
Assistant Professor Joanna Blaszczak, with our w88 online live casino and its Experiment Station unit, is conducting w88 online live casino to identify the specific conditions conducive to producing these blooms and their toxins, so that water managers can know when they are going to occur and take actions to better protect animals, humans and river ecosystems.
Blaszczak hopes to keep people and their animals safe and inspire w88 online live casino to take an interest in studying science and their local rivers.
“We’ll bring w88 online live casino to one of the field sites and go through and explain some of the work we are doing and provide them the opportunity to get some hands-on experience sampling a riverbed,” she said. “We’ll have them understand where the harmful algae are, what they look like, and what we are doing. It’s an opportunity to get high school w88 online live casino excited to learn about science, and what’s going on in their own river networks.”
Ensuring healthy rivers, people and pets
“Besides keeping dogs and other animals safe, I’m concerned for people and the river ecosystems. I was driving by the Eel River, and you could just see the algal blooms on the river rocks. And 30 feet downstream, there were all these children playing in the river.” -Assistant Professor Joanna Blaszczak
