Cyanobacteria are major contributors to algal blooms in inland waters, threatening ecosystem function and water uses, especially when toxin-producing strains dominate. Here, we examine 140 hyperspectral (HS) images of five representatives the widespread, potentially bloom-forming genera Microcystis, Planktothrix, Aphanizomenon, Chrysosporum Dolichospermum, determine potential utilizing visible near-infrared (VIS/NIR) reflectance for their discrimination. Cultures were grown under various light nutrient conditions induce a wide range pigment spectral variability, mimicking variations found natural environments. Importantly, assumed simplified scenario where all variability was derived from cyanobacteria. Throughout cyanobacterial life cycle, multiple HS acquired along with extractions chlorophyll phycocyanin. Images calibrated average spectra region interest extracted using k-means algorithm.

Harmful algae blooms (HABs) pose critical threats to aquatic ecosystems and human economies, driven by their rapid proliferation, oxygen depletion capacity, toxin release, biodiversity impacts. These blooms, increasingly exacerbated climate change, compromise water quality in both marine freshwater ecosystems, significantly affecting life coastal economies based on fishing tourism while also posing serious risks inland bodies. This article examines the role of hyperspectral imaging (HSI) monitoring HABs. HSI, with its superior spectral resolution, enables precise classification mapping diverse species, emerging as a pivotal tool environmental surveillance. An array HSI techniques, algorithms, deployment platforms are evaluated, analyzing efficacy across varied geographical contexts. Notably, sensor-based studies achieved up 90% accuracy, regression-based chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) estimations frequently reaching coefficients determination (R2) above 0.80. quantitative findings underscore potential for robust HAB diagnostics early warning systems. Furthermore, we explore current limitations future management, highlighting strategic importance addressing growing economic challenges posed paper seeks provide comprehensive insight into HSI’s capabilities, fostering integration global strategies against proliferation.

Blind and endmember guided autoencoder model for unmixing the absorbance spectra of phytoplankton pigments

Scientific Reports, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 15(1)

Опубликована: Апрель 16, 2025

Abstract Hyperspectral sensing of phytoplankton, free-living microscopic photosynthetic organisms, offers a comprehensive and scalable method for assessing water quality monitoring changes in aquatic ecosystems. However, unmixing the intrinsic optical properties phytoplankton from hyperspectral data is complex challenge. This research addresses problem non-linear absorbance concentrated samples using Blind (BAE) Endmember Guided Autoencoder (EGAE). We show that spectral EGAE model with different objective functions can effectively estimate abundance components data. The demonstrated higher correlation between unmixed endmember abundances ground truth chlorophyll-a (chl-a) fucoxanthin (fx) biomarker pigment concentrations compared to BAE model, spectrum cyanobacterial phycocyanin (pc) was robust network architecture. It adaptively unmix various endmembers without impacting estimates other pigments. Our results demonstrate provided stable improved accuracy reliability identifying quantifying pigments, allowing more precise into their constituent endmembers. anticipate our study will serve as starting point targeted specific pigments EGAE.

Reservoir and Riverine Sources of Cyanotoxins in Oregon’s Cascade Range Rivers Tapped for Drinking Water Supply

Phycology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 5(2), С. 16 - 16

Reservoirs and downstream rivers draining Oregon’s Cascade Range provide critical water supplies for over 1.5 million residents in dozens of communities. These waters also support planktonic benthic cyanobacteria that produce cyanotoxins may degrade quality drinking, recreation, aquatic life, other beneficial uses. This 2016–2020 survey examined the sources transport four cyanotoxins—microcystins, cylindrospermopsins, anatoxins, saxitoxins—in six river systems feeding 18 drinking treatment plants (DWTPs) northwestern Oregon. Benthic cyanobacteria, plankton net tows, (or) Solid-Phase Adsorption Toxin Tracking (SPATT) samples were collected from 65 sites, including tributaries, reservoirs, main stems, sites at or upstream DWTPs. Concentrated extracts (320 samples) analyzed with enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assays (ELISA), resulting >90% detection. (n = 80) mostly Nostoc, Phormidium, Microcoleus, Oscillatoria, yielded microcystins (76% detection), cylindrospermopsins (41%), anatoxins (45%), saxitoxins (39%).

The spatiotemporal distribution of harmful algal blooms (HABs) in rivers remains poorly understood, and there is an urgent need to develop a consistent set metrics better document HAB occurrences forecast future events. Using data from seven sites the Illinois River Basin, we computed focused on conditions related excess growth hypoxia. Daily mean chlorophyll dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations, gross primary productivity (GPP), net ecosystem (NEP) rates, water quality status, identifying timing transition clear-water dominated state. Early warning indicators (EWIs), first-order autoregressive process (Ar1) standard deviation (SD) events, forecasting blooms. Metrics were compared either literature-derived or statistical-based thresholds normalized by total number daily samples for exceedance rate. Exceedances concentration averaged 50 % across all using 10 µg L−1 threshold but increasing μg reduced average rate 5 %. GPP (∼8 g O2 m2d−1 threshold) was 15 %, similar amplitude DO (∼3 mg threshold), NEP (0 m2 d−1 higher, at 28 days with least 1 continuous below 5, 3, 2 L−1, had basin wide rates 9 3 respectively. Thresholds EWIs, Ar1 SD, exceeded 7 high concentrations rates. correlation between proxies biomass (chlorophyll concentration) (GPP) strongest middle region basin, R2 values 0.54 0.74. Although, cyanotoxin are most commonly used states define inland HAB, paucity publicly available data. wider availability combined results this study suggest that state event-based may be promising way assess predict vulnerability some deleterious effects HABs broad spatial scales.
