Abstract
Sections of eutrophic Lahontan Reservoir, Nevada were isolated using in situ microcosms and treated with 1.0 mg/L methylene blue to assess its effectiveness for lake restoration. Green algae (Chlorophyta) and diatom (Baciliariophyceae) levels decreased significantly within one day of treatment; however, blue-green algae (Cyanophyta) levels did not decline. Nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations did not increase after photochemical treatment over the 10-day study period.
