Thermal bar evolution off Oakville, 2003 : data report / M.G. Skafel, R.R. Yerubandi, M.N. Charlton.En36-518/04-001E-PDF

"In the 1960’s and 1970’s attached algae, mainly Cladophora, caused serious problems in the nearshore of Lake Ontario. It grew in large amounts that died off each summer, detached and decayed, fouling local beaches. Research at the time showed that Lake Ontario was receiving excessive phosphorus, a nutrient that normally limits Cladophora growth in the shallow, well-illuminated nearshore zone. Through legislation and other measures phosphorus loadings to the lake were reduced and excessive growth of Cladophora was brought under control in the 1980’s"--Introduction.
