Description This second QAPP addendum describes a follow-up project to the 2018 field study, "Prevalence and Persistence of Cyanotoxins in Lakes in the Puget Sound Basin." The goal of this project is to establish the historical prevalence of cyanobacteria in Spanaway Lake, Pierce County, using a dated sediment core.

The study will assess the trends in concentrations of algal pigments, microcystin variants, and microcystin genes in sediment subsamples representing the last ~150 years.
