Bowling Green State University researchers say removal of dam improved Sandusky Bay’s water quality in Ohio

After years of detecting harmful algae in Lake Erie’s Sandusky Bay, Bowling Green State University (BGSU) researchers recently discovered that a toxic cyanobacterium called planktothrix has essentially disappeared.
While other algae are still present, BGSU scientists have determined a likely cause behind the drop in toxins, signaling a major improvement for a body of water that millions rely upon for life, work, and play.
