Shorter blooms expected with longer warm periods under climate change: an example from a shallow meso-eutrophic Mediterranean lake

On Dec. 2nd, Water Insight signed a pilot with Boskalis for the monitoring of dredging plumes using satellite data and in situ optical measurements. Next to that, WI also signed a partnership with the Port of Rotterdam to explore monitoring applications, also aimed at pilot projects. With these contracts, our participation in the PortXL accelerator programme officially came to an end. However, as the initiated activities (also including developments at the Municipality of Rotterdam for monitoring cyanobacteria) are still in full swing, we see it as a beginning of many new partnerships!

Wat kan satellietmonitoring betekenen voor monitoring van waterkwaliteit? Water Insight heeft in opdracht van RWS de afgelopen jaren hard gewerkt aan een systeem voor monitoring van het Eems estuarium. We nodigen je graag uit voor een online webinar (zie bijlage) waarin Water Insight hun resultaten presenteert:

The metres high seafoam during the fatal accident involving five surfers on 11 May in Scheveningen most probably arose due to an exceptional combination of many algal remains and, for this time of the year, an unusually strong north-northeasterly wind. That is the conclusion of researchers from various organisations (including Water Insight) in the report about the cause of the foam formation.

Vanwege de stevige Noorderwind zien we op 11 mei een Algenbloei aankomen vanuit het Noorden, die in de loop van de week uit elkaar valt, zie het filmpje van chlorofyl van 11 t/m 17 mei
May 13, 2020
Door het mooie weer zien we op sommige dagen verhoogde concentraties algen, maar geen massale bloei, zie de bijlage voor het filmpje van chlorofyl van 4 t/m 9 mei.
May 13, 2020
De algenbloei van voorgaande weken zien we langzaam minder worden, zie de bijlage voor het filmpje van chlorofyl van 24 april t/m 2 mei.
May 13, 2020
Vanwege het mooie weer blijven de concentraties hoog en zien we de afgelopen week een algenbloei van Noord naar Zuid langs de Voordelta trekken, zie de bijlage voor het filmpje van chlorofyl van 19 t/m 23 april.
April 21, 2020
Deze week is er weer nieuwe informatie, zie het filmpje van chlorofylconcentraties van 9 tot 19 april. Hoe donkergroener hoe hoger het chlorofyl in het water. Veel grijs betekent wolkenbedekking, dus op sommige dagen zijn hebben we minder in kaart kunnen brengen. Afgelopen donderdag is er weer een fytoplankton monster genomen en hoewel dat de week ervoor hoofdzakelijk diatomeeën (voedsel voor schelpdieren en zoöplankton) bevatte, wordt er nu steeds meer Phaeocystis (slijm/schuimalg) gezien, met name in het westelijk deel van de Oosterschelde.
April 10, 2020
Na een aantal jaren afwezigheid is het algeninformatiebulletin weer nieuw leven ingeblazen, zij het in een andere setting. Water Insight BV (voor de satellietbeelden) en Hogeschool Zeeland bieden u dit aan in het kader van het CoastObs H2020 project. Door het mooie weer is er een flinke algenbloei in de Voordelta zoals te zien in het filmpje. Hoe groener, hoe hoger de concentraties algen, hoe blauwer hoe lager. Soms stromen ze ook de Oosterschelde binnen, richting de schelpdierpercelen. Het overgrote deel van de algen op dit moment zijn diatomeeën, perfect voedsel voor schelpdieren.
