Description | Eutrophication and cyanobacterial blooms are still a great challenge to lake managers. Alum treatment is currently used as a solution to the problem, mainly in the USA. However, little is known about how alum changes abiotic factors (e.g. pH) in the sediment of the lakes. You will do fieldwork and lab experiments. |
