...NBC 6 News - Local Headlines DHTML Javascript Menu By Milonic.com Local Headlines Local biologists looking into Brazos River algae problem Watch VideoUpdated: Mar 29, 2006 5:59pm Local biologists are looking into an algae problem that’s killing millions of fish along the Brazos River system.

A Baylor University research team took samples from Lake Whitney on Wednesday.They’re looking into the biology of deadly golden algae here in Central Texas.

Environmental studies professors believe the algae clog’s fish gills, causing them to suffocate.

Researchers say the ongoing problem is affecting the local fishing economy.

“Our ultimate goal is to be able to provide models that can be used for management of fisheries that are potentially impacted by this organism,” said Dr.

Bryan Brooks from Baylor Environmental studies.

Brooks says early findings show lower water temperatures may stress algae, making it more toxic.

He plans to take samples from Lake Whitney every two weeks.
