BGSU research finds reduced levels of harmful algae toxins in Sandusky Bay
SANDUSKY — After years of detecting harmful algae in Lake Erie’s Sandusky Bay, Bowling Green State University researchers recently discovered that a toxic cyanobacterium called Planktothrix has essentially disappeared. While other algae still are present, BGSU scientists have determined a likely cause behind the drop in toxins, signaling a major improvement for a body of water that millions rely upon for life, work and play. “The water looked pretty bad in 2019, but we didn’t know that it was actually slowly improving,” said George Bullerjahn, BGSU emeritus professor of biology. “In 2020, we started to go out to the bay every week but there was nothing. Since then, we’ve found benign algae, but no toxins.” With no major adjustments to nutrient loads and not enough time passing for significant changes, BGSU researchers turned their attention to the Sandusky River, which feeds into the bay and experienced a dam removal near the city of Fremont in 2018 to improve fish habitats.
