Cyanobacterial blooms are well established as indicators of environmental degradation [2,3]
Cyanobacteria are an essential biological component of phytoplankton water quality assessment, and cyanobacterial biovolume, or their percentage contribution to total phytoplankton biovolume, has been a recommended taxonomic and bloom metric of phytoplankton indices used in ecological status classification schemes by European Member States
Summary
Publisher’s Note: MDPI stays neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations. It is the latter group that has received longer and stronger attention by scientists and environmental quality managers due to their predominant role in harmful algal blooms in freshwaters and partly in brackish inland waters and coastal seas. Cyanobacterial blooms are well established as indicators of environmental degradation [2,3].
