Upcoming Harmful Algal Bloom Study

Ault Lab graduate students Nicole Olson and Jia Shi and Prof. Ault traveled to Grand Lake St. Mary's to visit the site for our upcoming harmful algal bloom study. We performed preliminary measurements to analyze the freshwater for blue green algae content and pH. We will spend a week in early August at Wright State University collecting freshwater and aerosol particles to determine if harmful algal bloom toxins are aerosolized on this lake. Stay tuned for some very exciting results next month!
