Nearshore (littoral) habitats of clear lakes with high water quality are increasingly experiencing unexplained proliferations of filamentous algae that grow on submerged surfaces. These filamentous algal blooms (FABs) are sometimes associated with nutrient pollution in groundwater, but complex changes in climate, nutrient transport, lake hydrodynamics, and food web structure may also facilitate this emerging threat to clear lakes. A coordinated effort among members of the public, managers, and scientists is needed to document the occurrence of FABs, to standardize methods for measuring their severity, to adapt existing data collection networks to include nearshore habitats, and to mitigate and reverse this profound structural change in lake ecosystems. Current models of lake eutrophication do not explain this littoral greening. However, a cohesive response to it is essential for protecting some of the world's most valued lakes and the flora, fauna, and ecosystem services they sustain.
水质优良的清澈湖泊的近岸（沿岸）栖息地，正日益遭受着附着于水下表面生长的丝状藻类不明原因的大量繁殖。这些丝状藻华（FABs）有时与地下水中的营养物污染有关，但气候、营养物传输、湖泊水动力以及食物网结构的复杂变化，也可能助长了这一对清澈湖泊新出现的威胁。需要公众、管理者和科学家共同努力，记录丝状藻华的发生情况，规范其严重程度的测量方法，调整现有的数据收集网络以纳入近岸栖息地，并减轻和扭转湖泊生态系统这一深刻的结构变化。当前的湖泊富营养化模型无法解释这种沿岸绿化现象。然而，对其做出协调一致的应对，对于保护世界上一些最具价值的湖泊以及它们所维持的动植物和生态系统服务至关重要。
