About the Micro-webinar
Warm water, elevated nutrients, low flows and stagnant conditions can create the perfect environment for algae and cyanobacteria to multiply. But by the time a bloom is visible at the surface, conditions may have been changing for some time.
So how can we identify the warning signs earlier?
Join Troy and Richard as they explore how satellite remote sensing, contactless monitoring and in-situ water quality sensors can work together to provide greater visibility of changing conditions, from tracking blooms across large water bodies to continuously monitoring individual sites.
Richard and Troy will explain how, when combined, the technologies available create a more informed approach to algae monitoring.
We’ll look at how continuous monitoring can track key indicators including chlorophyll-a, phycocyanin, temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, conductivity, salinity, turbidity and nutrients, helping identify emerging trends rather than waiting until the next site visit or visible bloom.
What conditions can trigger rapid algae and cyanobacteria growth.
The warning signs that conditions are becoming favourable for a bloom.
Why monitoring below the surface is important for early detection
rather than waiting until a bloom becomes visible.
How key water-quality parameters indicate increasing bloom risk
such as chlorophyll-a, phycocyanin, temperature, dissolved oxygen, turbidity and nutrients.
How satellite, contactless and in-situ monitoring technologies can work together
to provide a more complete picture of changing water conditions and bloom development.
