Harmful algal blooms: Their ecophysiology and general relevance to phytoplankton blooms in the sea
From 60 to 80 species of phytoplankton have been reported to be harmful; of thcsc, 90% are flagellates, notably dinoflagellates. The effects of turbulence on harmful algal bloom (HAB) taxa, their photoadaptive strategies, growth rate, and nutrient uptake aFlinity (K,) are considered. Flagellates, including HAB taxa, collectively have a lower nutrient uptake affinity than diatoms. Four major ada...
متن کاملHARMFUL ALGAL BLOOMS: An Unexpected Deep-Sea Diver
Pharmed Fish Results from a recent pilot study of the uptake of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) by fish in U.S. rivers have garnered considerable attention since they were pub lished online 25 March 2009 ahead of print in Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry. The study, led by Baylor University chemistry pro fessor C. Kevin Chambliss and environmental science professor Br...
متن کاملModels of Harmful Algal Blooms
Models used to study harmful algal blooms are a subset of those used to examine more general planktonic processes. Most models have been heuristic, examining the likelihood of certain processes generating a harmful algal bloom. Several models have been more closely coupled to field data and have been used to gain insights into the dynamics underlying the observations. As better physical and bio...
متن کاملInter-comparison of Ocean Colour Data Products during Algal Blooms in the North Sea
Several satellite-borne ocean colour Earth observation (EO) sensors are presently collecting data on an operational basis, including the Envisat MERIS sensor. This study aims at detecting differences in ocean colour EO sensor performances for ocean monitoring and in particular the study of algal bloom situations. The motivation for the present study is to explore how data from different sensors...
متن کاملThe effects of sea urchin grazing and drift algal blooms on a subtropical seagrass bed community.
Subtropical seagrass beds can be subject to relatively high levels of direct herbivory and large blooms of drift algae, both of which can have important effects on the floral and faunal components of the community. Caging experiments were used to investigate these factors in a Thalassia testudinum bed in Biscayne Bay, Florida. Abundance of sea urchins, Lytechinus variegatus, and drift algae was...
