This book explores the interconnections of internal phosphorus loading, cyanobacteria, and climate change and their role in determining water quality in freshwater.

It goes on to discuss the sometimes elusive process of internal phosphorus loading with its chemical and biological roots. Reviewing recent observations on present and future climate change, the book explores its effects on lake functioning. It concludes with the abatement and prevention of cyanobacteria proliferation, including techniques that deal with internal phosphorus loading. Some key topics covered are:

  • In-depth exploration of internal phosphorus loading and its quantification in global lakes with diverse morphometry, hydrology, geochemistry, and degree of eutrophication.
  • Determination of climate change effects on physical, chemical, and cyanobacteria-related variables in tables based on more than 100 reviewed journal articles.
  • Evidence for the enhancing influences of climate change on internal phosphorus load and cyanobacteria, and of internal load on cyanobacteria.

This book will be of interest to limnologists, environmental and engineering professionals, and natural science students. It will also be an interesting read to government agents, lake managers, and others interested in maintaining lake water quality and understanding algal blooms.
