Tracking a large‐scale and highly toxic Arctic algal bloom: Rapid detection and risk communication
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 62-72, February 2025.Abstract In recent years, blooms of the neurotoxic dinoflagellate Alexandrium catenella have been documented in Pacific Arctic waters, and the paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) that this species produces have been detected throughout the food web. These observations have raised significant concerns about the role that harmful algal blooms (HABs) will ...
