Scientists from China and New Zealand are closely monitoring Taihu Lake to prevent another outbreak of blue-green algae.
An outbreak last year resulted in 2.3 million people in Wuxi, Jiangsu province, suffering from a drinking water shortage.
A 24-hour wireless water quality observation system has been deployed in parts of the lake.
