Chemistry-based early warning system proposed for harmful algal blooms
Original: A promising idea: chemistry-based early warning system for harmful algal blooms. Article links to open access paper. htt
Researchers have proposed a chemistry-based early warning system for detecting harmful algal blooms, based on chemical cues released before blooms develop. The findings are described in a new open access paper, with coverage noting the approach could give coastal communities and aquaculture operators advance notice of toxic bloom events, which threaten marine life, fisheries and public health worldwide.
Why now: Harmful algal blooms are a growing environmental and economic concern, making an early detection method timely and of wide interest.
