No two ponds are quite the same…
Do you need help treating aquatic plants or algae? Our team of scientists and aquatic experts can help find a solution whether your problem is big or small. Natural Lake Biosciences offers several levels of testing to fit your needs. To find your solution, follow the links below or contact Natural Lake Biosciences at info@naturallake.com.
Sediment Phosphorus Fractionation
Identify the underlying causes of nutrient issues with our Sediment Phosphorus Fractionation test. Utilizing the Psenner 1988 method, an industry standard, this test assesses different forms of sediment phosphorus, their binding strength, and their potential for release into the water column. Natural Lake Biosciences analyzes sediment phosphorus fractions that are loosely bound, metal-bound, calcium-bound, and organic-bound. Understanding these fractions is crucial for developing effective remediation plans, particularly in water bodies experiencing persistent algae blooms.
Algae and Aquatic Plant Identification
Identify nuisance growths fast with Algae and Aquatic Plant Identification. Whether you’re dealing with unfamiliar blooms or invasive species, our biologists will microscopically analyze your sample for major and minor algae/aquatic plants and provide generalized insights to guide management decisions.
Water Quality + Algae and Aquatic Plant Identification
Get the full picture of your waterbody’s health with our dual-service package. This comprehensive test combines a 10 point water quality analysis (covering pH, TN, TP, Turbidity, Hardness, DO, Color, Secchi, Alkalinity, Conductivity) with our Algae and Aquatic Plant Identification testing service. It’s a perfect starting point for building a targeted treatment plan based on current conditions.
Muck Analysis
Analyze what’s lurking beneath the surface. Our Muck Analysis quantifies the organic and inorganic content of lake sediment (muck) to evaluate for digestibility. This analysis is essential for determining if significant muck reduction can be achieved through biological treatments.
In order to process your testing in an expedient manner, we ask that after you have sent in your sample that you call 888.757.9575 with payment information. This will allow us to get you your results as quickly as possible.
