Lake Taihu has a history of recurrent harmful cyanobacterial blooms. There is a need to better understand the aquatic ecosystem of Lake Taihu in order to improve methods for controlling the cyanobacterial blooms. Based on the field measurement and satellite remote sensing, we produced and collected a time-series dataset, including the water quality, bio-optics, climate, and anthropogenic data of Lake Taihu (THQBCA), which could provide comprehensive information regarding cyanobacterial blooms.

Landsat satellites offer an effective complement to facilitate the temporal and spatial monitoring of multi-scale lakes. Landsat surface reflectance products were utilized to retrieve the annual average TSI for 2693 lakes over 1 km in China from 1984 to 2023.

- Color dissolved organic matter (CDOM) in lakes is influenced by both external (allochthonous) inputs and internal (autochthonous) production, significantly affecting its composition and cycling.
- A study was conducted in Lake Fuxian, China, to analyze CDOM during the wet season and compare its characteristics with other lakes, revealing that riverine CDOM had higher levels of humic-like substances while Lake Fuxian's CDOM was mainly protein-like.
- The findings showed that although CDOM composition varied across various lakes, the quantity increased significantly in deeper lakes with well-vegetated catchments, suggesting that allochthonous inputs impact CDOM but can be moderated by in-lake processing dynamics.
