Lakes, rivers and estuaries that experience frequent and/or prolonged blooms of cyanobacteria display an array of ecosystem properties that may have impacts on water quality, biological communities and ecosystem services. Some impacts of blooms may be direct, including possible effects of toxins on fish, invertebrates, and other aquatic fauna, or indirect, including: a reduction of submerged plants when plankton biomass becomes very high; and changes in fish community structure if summer cold water refuges are lost due to hypolimnetic anoxia. This paper is a concise overview of cyanobacteria blooms, focusing on their relationship to trophic state, their temporal dynamics, and their potential impacts on ecosystem structure and function.
