Several dinoflagellate species of the cosmopolitan genus Dinophysis produce potent
lipophilic shellfish toxins (okadaic acid, its derivatives and the pectenotoxins) and pose a …

Global ocean temperatures are rising, yet the impacts of such changes on harmful algal
blooms (HABs) are not fully understood. Here we used high-resolution sea-surface …

Dinoflagellates are a major aquatic protist group with amphiesma, multiple cortical
membranous “cell wall” layers that contain large circum-cortical alveolar sacs (AVs). AVs …

Imaging FlowCytobot (IFCB) combines video and flow cytometric technology to capture
images of nano‐and microplankton (∼ 10 to> 100 μm) and to measure the chlorophyll …

Abstract The “Applied Simulations and Integrated Modelling for the Understanding of
Harmful Algal Blooms”(Asimuth) project sought to develop a harmful algal bloom (HAB) alert …

Comparison of harmful algal bloom (HAB) species in eastern boundary upwelling systems,
specifically species composition, bloom densities, toxin concentrations and impacts are …

The influence of diatom bloom behaviour, dinoflagellate life cycles, propagule type and
upwelling bloom cycles on the seeding of dinoflagellate blooms in eastern boundary current …

In coastal and offshore waters, Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) currently threaten the well-
being of coastal countries. These events, which can be localized or involve wide-ranging …

In 2012, there were exceptional blooms of D. acuminata in early spring in what appeared to
be a mesoscale event affecting Western Iberia and the Bay of Biscay. The objective of this …

Abstract In Chile, Dinophysis acuminata is a conspicuous mixotrophic dinoflagellate that
inhabits the Offshore Pacific Coast (OPC) and the Patagonian fjords (PF). In this study, we …
