1 Identification of Lake Erie ATL Samples 1 Algae samples were taken from algae turf scrubbing (ATL) systems in Lake Erie, and various tests were performed on them. The following report identifies key algae species within these ATS samples. Table 1: Algae Identified *further explanation of certainty after table Algae Name Picture Certainty 1:Not Certain, 3: Certain Bangia 3 Cladophora 3 Closteridium 3 Notes - multiple rows of cells within a sheath 1 - can be a purple to rust color (was observed in 10x) - found in the Great Lakes 1 - regularly branched filament are mesh-like - found many times in fresh, flowing water 1 - crescent shape - chloroplast is parietal and covers most of the cell 3 Cybella 3 - diatom - mainly observed as cells in a sheath - asymmetrical shape 1
2 Identification of Lake Erie ATL Samples 2 Diatoms 3 Fragilaria 3 - many types of diatoms were observed - the ones that were most present are identified in this table - diatom - narrow cells forming a ribbon-like filament 2 Lyngbya* 1 Microspora* 2 Mougeotia* 2 Oscillatoria 3 - observed as clear, long strings - several strands connected at end - were mainly found in July & Aug. samples - unbranched vary greatly, even within filaments 1 - cells break into H-shaped fragments - unbranched ribbon-like - smaller than the algae ID ed as Microspora - common in lakes 1 - unbranched, round ends - no obvious sheath 3 (none observed) - form mats, but none were observed
3 Identification of Lake Erie ATL Samples 3 Pediastrum 3 Schizomeris* 1 - cells form colonies - outside cells are spiked - found in fresh water 3 - only seen once, but looked cool - observed as bark-like, with cells compact into many layers - only observed about 4 times Spirogyra 3 Ulothrix* 2 - spiral, parietal chloroplasts - zygospores and conjugation were observed in 7-24 ATS2 M - common in flowing waters 1 - short cells with parietal chloro. - U. zonata is largest group, found on wavewashed shores *The algae identified as Lyngbya was observed mainly as clear, but could have small cells inside. Lyngbya species in North America require further research and revision, 1 due to the similarities with Oscillatoria. *There was often trouble identifying and distinguishing Microspora and Mougeotia due to their similar appearance. The deciding factors were that Microspora created H-shaped fragments on the end, and Mougeotia had ribbon-like chloroplasts. These factors were decided after reading the various descriptions of each from the reference material. *Schizomeris has microscopic filaments and can be found in fast moving water such as waterfalls 1, which is why it was chosen to loosely identify the bark-like algae. *Most of the time, algae was identified as Ulothrix when it looked like the picture above. However, sometimes filaments were wider and larger that the picture, but had the same characteristics. These could be different species of Ulothrix.
4 Identification of Lake Erie ATL Samples 4 Table 2: Unknown Algae Picture Notes - has irregular, cylindrical cells with seemingly parietal chloroplasts - the unusual end was not identified, however it is probably a key identification characteristic - has the H shape like Microspora, but the chloroplast were nothing like the other species observed. - the two chloroplasts and cell shape resembled that of Zygogonium. However Zygogonium has star-like chloroplasts. - clear, green filament without visible cells inside - one end has an orange puff and the other end is simply the filament - might be an insignificant finding Concluding Thoughts The bottom and middle samples were cluttered with diatoms and had a wide range of species present. This could be because it is at the end of the moving water, and all of the algae that could not handle the fast water at the top were pushed to the end of the track. The top samples always had the branched Cladophora as the dominant species, with few other species present (not cluttered). Most of the diatoms present in the top samples were in the form of a chain, which could be because they are stronger that way and were able to withstand the fast moving water at the top.
