| Title | Impact of the Farmington Bay Eutrophication Plume on the Plankton Ecology of Gilbert Bay, Great Salt Lake |

| Description | Farmington Bay in the Great Salt Lake is hypereutrophic because of extreme nitrogen and phosphorus loading, largely from greater metropolitan Salt Lake City sewage effluents. Although this causes detrimental impacts within the bay, the influence of the outflow of its algal- and nutrient-rich waters into Gilbert Bay is largely unknown. To address this issue, students in the 2010 Aquatic Ecology Practicum course from Utah State University did a 13-km long transect analysis of trophic parameters... |
