Saginaw Bay, the area of the Great Lakes where Chaetoceros muelleri var. subsalsum was collected historically, has high nutrient levels. Water salinity is the primary factor controlling population growth rates of C. muelleri var. subsalsum. Nutrient conditions in Saginaw Bay, particularly regarding salinity levels, are not available and therefore limit predictions of the potential impacts of C. muelleri var. subsalsum.
