How to use algal in a sentence?

1. Timothy Gibson:

   There is strong fossil evidence that red algae existed over a billion years ago, and we know the red and green algae diverged from a common ancestor, so, although this doesnt fundamentally change the way Ill think about theevolutionof life, the discovery of this green algal fossil helps fill an important gap and strengthens an emerging timeline for the evolution of early, complex life.

2. Sam Hook:

   If we looked at these warming rates, a project of what would happen in the next century then what we would see is that algal blooms would go up by about 20 percent, this is the green algae that you see in the lakes, often times in the summer and some of that green algae that is added, some of it contains harmful toxins and so what it can do is, it puts restrictions on people going out on the water or using the water for drinking purposes and things like that. So, there are real consequences to the actual lake ecosystem.

3. Julie Speegle:

   We are mobilizing to get our marine mammal experts and our partners there to get some samples, it could be a harmful algal bloom. It could be a number of things.

4. Ron Brooks:

   They were allowed to bring Asian and silver carp in to take care of algal blooms, and they used the fish and sold them to the ethnic markets, like Chinese markets.

5. Thomas Paterek:

   I think everyone in the community is frustrated, when you see dead dolphins in the water, when you see dead manatees in the water, dead sea turtles... when you have captains who have fished in the area for decades say they have never seen anything like this, that is enough to declare a state of emergency and not just say it's another naturally occurring harmful algal bloom.
