| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Under this research, we have investigated effectiveness of water bloom reduction by a supply of silicate nutrients and installing attachment carriers on the site and at laboratory experiment, and through changes of algae and water quality. The research results show that proliferations of diatoms such as Nitzschia palea and green algae such as Ankistrodesmus spp. are enhanced and a proliferation of Cyanobacteria such as Microcystis spp. is suppressed. Additionally, as a new finding, we have observed rapid extinction of Microcystis spp. through invasion and destruction by Nitzschia palea of Microcystis colonies. It is expected that this method can be applied as one of water bloom prevention methods.
