Cyanobacteria Podcast!
Alberta's nutrient-rich lakes, ponds and reservoirs can support blooms of blue-green algae, scientifically known as cyanobacteria, some of which can produce toxins hazardous to people, pets, livestock and wildlife.
The U.S. Geological Survey has put together a podcast (called a CoreCast) that answers many of the most commonly
asked questions about algal blooms.
