The frequency and intensity of harmful algal blooms (HABs) and phytoplankton community
shifts toward toxic species have increased worldwide. Although most research has focused …

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) produce local impacts in nearly all freshwater and marine
systems. They are a problem that occurs globally requiring an integrated and coordinated …

Climate change pressures will influence marine planktonic systems globally, and it is
conceivable that harmful algal blooms may increase in frequency and severity. These …

A coastwide bloom of the toxigenic diatom Pseudo‐nitzschia in spring 2015 resulted in the
largest recorded outbreak of the neurotoxin, domoic acid, along the North American west …

Time series now have sufficient duration to determine harmful algal bloom (HAB) responses
to changing climate conditions, including warming, stratification intensity, freshwater inputs …

Over the last decade, our understanding of the environmental controls on Pseudo-nitzschia
blooms and domoic acid (DA) production has matured. Pseudo-nitzschia have been found …

Lelong A., Hégaret H., Soudant P. and Bates SS 2012. Pseudo-nitzschia (Bacillariophyceae)
species, domoic acid and amnesic shellfish poisoning: revisiting previous paradigms …

Along the Pacific coast of North America, from Alaska to Mexico, harmful algal blooms
(HABs) have caused losses to natural resources and coastal economies, and have resulted …

Domoic acid is a potent neurotoxin produced by certain marine microalgae that can
accumulate in the foodweb, posing a health threat to human seafood consumers and wildlife …

As the oceans absorb anthropogenic CO2 they become more acidic, a problem termed
ocean acidification (OA). Since this increase in CO2 is occurring rapidly, OA may have …
