Eutrophication and Algal Bloom Investigations

The professional staff at AMS conducts nutrient over-enrichment and harmful algal bloom studies, isolates phytoplankton into pure cultures, and performs dose-response investigations to test hypotheses related to phytoplankton growth.  AMS also participates on advisory committees to develop regional approaches to nutrient discharge regulations, and conducts comprehensive literature reviews to assist clients in identifying current research and scientifically valid approaches to management of eutrophication.
