algae and water quality

[Monique Reed]

If you can find a textbook on phycology or water quality testing, that
would probably do.  What I remember from phycology years ago, it's
mostly the blue-green guys that denote poor quality (Merismopedia,
etc.) and some of the more delicate greens that suggest good quality
(Volvox, etc.)
