"The harmful algal blooms, the cyanobacteria release toxins. The toxins can be aerosolized. Waves washing up on a shore or crashing against a rock, that’s going to produce aerosols. And what we’re working on now is classifying what’s in those aerosols and also if you have a preexisting pulmonary condition like asthma that is very common, will that exacerbate or make asthma worse? And our initial studies have shown that indeed it does.”

"Just about 20 yards offshore, we’re monitoring those aerosols. The goal is to try to start to, you know, provide enough data points that we can monitor and figure out what is getting into the air and if that if there are any effects to that.”

STORYLINE:
In a lab not far from the shores of Lake Erie, researchers are trying to learn more about the ways toxic algae can damage health.
Steven Haller, a clinical researcher in the University of Toledo’s department of medicine, says his interest dates back to a scare when toxic algae made it into his community’s water supply a decade ago.
Dangerous algae blooms have been a persistent problem in western Lake Erie, where shallow water warms and algae gets turbocharged by farm chemicals draining into the lake.
For residents in Lake Erie’s western basin, the blooms are a common sight.
