| | | MononaPier23 | 2024-07-10 | 07:37 am | Calm to small ripples | Some (1-10) | Strong extensive evidence | Bluish green tint, paint, oily-like appearance | Some clear evidence | None | Murky | 68.9° | 75.6° | 95.3 cm | I *think what I’m seeing today is Cyanobacteria. There were some filamentous strands mixed in, but it mostly dispersed upon contact. I’ve attached some photos. |

Surface plant growth throughout observation area. Typically limited closer to shore. |

| | | MendotaPark29 | 2023-05-23 | 09:50 am | Rough water | | | | | | | | | | Very dirty- surface material looks like a mix of Cyanobacteria and algi. Some very blue blobs that almost look like fertilizer? Will send more photos by email. Did not collect turbidity sample because I had not brought any gloves to wear. |
