Title Effects of Artificial Destratification on the Water Quality and Microbial Populations of Hyrum Reservoir
Description "Hyrum Reservoir, Utah, was studied for one year and then for a year following the initiation of artificial destratification. The redistribution of dissolved oxygen to the lower depths of the reservoir significantly increased the amount of habitat suitable for trout. The annual Aphanizomenon bloom increased during that first year after initiating destratification.
