RBI presented new research at the North American Lake Management Meeting November 1-4, 2016. Dr. Ellen Preece presented research from her recently published paper in the journal Harmful Algae. The paper entitled,  “A review of microcystin detections in Estuarine and Marine waters: Environmental implications and human health risk,” reviews the expansion of microcystin producing cyanobacteria and the transport of contaminated inland waters to estuarine and coastal marine environments. The phenomenon of microcystins occurring in coastal waters has only recently received attention, yet it constitutes a major worldwide environmental threat to aquatic resources and human health. To read Dr. Preece's full article follow the link below:
