Bloom event dates (yyyy/mm/dd): | ||
Quarantine levels dates (yyyy/mm/dd): | ||
Additional date-related information: | The species data below represent cell concentrations of HAB species above 10^5 cells/liter, with the exception of Prorocentrum which are reported at or above 10^4 and Anabaena spp. which are reported at or above 10^6. Cell concentrations were averaged over seven stations in these lakes for the period January to August 2005 to generate an average concentration for each species on a single sample date. Data is from surface samples collected during routine sampling and were not associated with a particular bloom event. |
