The objective of this study is to describe the conditions which lead to cyanobacterial
blooms and from this information identify means of predicting, detecting and managing cyanobacteria in source waters. The site used as a case study was Myponga
Reservoir in South Australia (S 35 24. 13. E 138 25. 13.). The reservoir is 36m
deep, has a volume of 26,000 ML and catchment area of 124 km2. Landuse in the
catchment is predominantly dairy and beef grazing. The reservoir is the site of a CRC
Water Quality and Treatment study on artificial destratification using a bubble plume
aerator and two surface mounted mechanical mixers are operated for six months each
year. As part of this study two meteorological stations with thermistor chains have
been permanently deployed in the reservoir to record physical data at 10 minute
intervals.
