The Great Salt Lake in Utah is the largest saline lake Western hemisphere and one of terminal lakes world. Situated at eastern edge Basin, it a remnant freshwater Bonneville whose water level precipitously lowered about 12,000 years ago due to natural break Red Rock pass north. It contains diverse assemblage cyanobacteria which vary spatially dependent on salinity. In 1984, waters occupied 8500 km2. Nearly four decades later, occupy 2500 km2—a reduction surface area 71%. With predominantly westerly winds, there potential for adjacent metropolitan residents east be exposed airborne cyanobacteria- cyanotoxin-containing dust. During summer fall months 2022, air dried sediment samples were collected assessed presence BMAA has been identified as risk factor ALS.

There was no clear relationship between these toxins suggesting that may originate from diffuse rather than point sources.
