How Does Climate Change Influence the Regional Ecological-Social Risks of Harmful Dinoflagellates? A Predictive Study of China's Coastal Waters. [PDF]
Climate change is expected to shift the risks posed by harmful dinoflagellates in China's coastal waters. In this study, the ecological–social risk is assessed by considering both the potential presence of these algae and their overlap with coastal populations and mariculture areas.
