It is widely believed that the frequency and geographic distribution of marine Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) have been increasing worldwide. HABs are aquatic phenomena caused by the rapid growth and accumulation of certain microalgae, which can usually lead to marked discoloration of surface waters, and severe impacts on public health, commerce, and the ...

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) pose threats to the environment, public health, and a variety of commercial interests and industries. A single bloom can lead to devastating outcomes, including large mortalities of marine organisms (e.g., fish kills); toxic contamination of filter-feeding organisms such as bivalve shellfish that subsequently enter the ...

Algae (so called phytoplankton) are an important food resource for many marine organisms, however as a result of our water resources pollution, sometimes they overgrow and cause a variety of negative artifacts: increased toxin production, hypoxia, increase in bacterial population (mainly the one able to decompose dead algae) and decrease in the ...

Phytoplankton are free-floating plants found in marine and freshwaters that through their photosynthetic growth form the base of the aquatic food chain. A small subset of the phytoplankton may be harmful to human health or to human use of the ecosystem.

Harmful algal bloom (HAB) are those algal species which produces toxin, lethal to biotic environment of an aquatic ecosystem. It is observed that most algae are harmless, but certain ones produce toxins which are posing threat to water bodies and human

This is the final report on the research project to develop predictive models to quantify algal blooms in relation to environmental variables. The project's objectives were to develop models simulating the impact of vertical structure and mass transfer upon the dynamics of planktonic algae, including cyanobacteria, in lakes and reservoirs, to assess ...

Algal blooms in the spread and persistence of cholera
Biosystems, 1993Cholera has been long associated with the seasonality of coastal algal blooms off Bangladesh. Using fluorescent antibody (FA) techniques, microbiologists have now identified a viable, non-cultivable form of Vibrio cholerae in a wide range of marine life, including cyanobacteria (Anabaena variabilis), diatoms (Skeletonema costatum), phaeophytes ...
