#GreatLake In #NorthAmerica Turns A Green Due To Toxic #Algae
#Landsat9 snapped images of #algalbloom in #LakeErie on August 13, revealing it covered approximately 830km (320 square miles) of water within its western basin, according to #NASA #EarthObservatory. It continued to grow to this season’s likely largest extent of 1,700 square km (660 square miles) on August 22. Lake Erie regularly experiences algal blooms, primarily because of nutrient runoff from #MaumeeRiver.
