TL;DR: Independent data from the Gulf of Mexico are used to develop and test the hypothesis that the same sequence of physical and ecological events each year allows the toxic dinoflagellate Karenia brevis to become dominant in a global response to both desertification and eutrophication.

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison of recent ten-fold increments within Florida waters of both relatively benign and saxitoxic algal blooms (HABs), some of which are fatal to humans, are made.

A 1-D simulation analysis of the development and maintenance of the 2001 red tide of the ichthyotoxic dinoflagellate Karenia brevis on the West Florida shelf

TL;DR: While the model was able to replicate the initiation and maintenance of the 2001 red tide, bloom termination was not captured by this 1-D form on the WFS, horizontal advection and perhaps cell lysis loss terms might play a significant role, to be addressed in future three-dimensional simulations.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used in situ plankton data from the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) and Mediterranean Sea over six decades, together with adjunct satellite color data, other nitrogen isotope signals of plankton and sediments, extant circulation models, and phytoplankton biomarkers within sediment cores of this similar ecosystem, all confirm the complex western GOM eutrophied sequence of phyto-ankton succession.

Semianalytic Moderate‐Resolution Imaging Spectrometer algorithms for chlorophyll a and absorption with bio‐optical domains based on nitrate‐depletion temperatures
TL;DR: In this article, a semi-alytical, bio-optical model of remote sensing reflectance, Rrs(λ), was proposed for extracting chlorophyll concentration and phytoplankton and gelbstoff absorption coefficients from MODIS data.
