Utilizing cooperative fisheries research to monitor and understand harmful algal blooms along the Oregon coast

Creator:: Gilliland, Raquel C.
Abstract:: Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are a problem for coastal communities, the fishing industry, and coastal organisms. Pseudo-nitzschia spp. is a regularly occurring diatom in Oregon’s coastal waters. At times, Pseudo-nitzschia spp. can facultatively produce domoic acid, a neurotoxin that can bioaccumulate in the food chain. While regular shore-based sampling provides...
