Table 1.

Total microcystins mass (kg) in the western basin of Lake Erie during the two HABs Grabs events, the maximum and average (standard deviation in parenthesis) MC concentrations (μg/L) measured in water samples collected during the HABs Grab on 9 August 2018 and 7 August 2019, and theoretical basin-wide average concentration. The microcystin data were from the ELISA method.
