Cyanobacterial blooms present substantial challenges to managers and threaten ecological and public health. The majority of cyanobacterial bloom research and management focuses on factors that control bloom initiation, duration, toxicity, and geographical extent, but relatively little research focuses on the role of loss processes in blooms and how these processes are regulated. This talk will highlight abiotic (e.g., hydraulic flushing and oxidative stress/UV light) and biotic factors (e.g., allelopathic compounds, infections, grazing, and resting cells/programmed cell death) known to govern bloom loss.
